sugar high fridays - the international sweet tooth blogging extravaganza

What the heck is a Sugar High Friday? That's easy. It's your best excuse to make something sweet and different, at least once a month. And to do it with tons of other people from around the world. It occurs during the last week of every month, entries due on the Monday and the round-up posted on the Friday (the Sugar High Friday that is!).

The rules and regulations - really, anything goes! Just make your favourite dessert that revolves around or highlights the specified ingredient or theme, which is always something different every month. An individual creation, a recipe you have always wanted to try but never have... an old standby that company loves and raves about every time you make it. Even a recipe you have already posted about before (as long as you post about it anew!); whatever tickles your imagination. Just make sure you stick to that month's SHF theme, post your recipe by the specified deadline and email the host with a link to your SHF entry.

If you'd like to host SHF, please email me. But be prepared to make plans well in advance. As of right now, there's a lineup well into 2010. (And that's a good thing.)

Here's a listing of previous SHF events and their hosts and themes. To fast-track to this month's SHF introduction or round-up, hit the link on my main page. Happy SHF'ing!
