NaBloPoMo '07 - here's what I wrote

So if you've got this far, you will know that NaBloPoMo stands for National Blog Posting Month - the writing challenge where you undertake to write a post a day on your blog for the entire month of November.  It's kind of NaNoWriMo for scaredy cats. 

Colour me scared.

But I reckoned that I needed some sort of writing challenge and NaBloPoMo seemed to be the logical place to start.  Just to prove that I did not post "I am a fish I am a fish I am a fish I am a fish" every day, here's the complete record of what I've been writing about this month:

Thursday 1 November - A post a day for NaBloPoMo

Friday 2 November - Broad bean, cheese and ham tart

Saturday 3 November - Pizza inspirations - fig, Brie and Prosciutto

Sunday 4 November - San Lorenzo tasting dinner at Osteria dell'Arancio

Monday 5 November - Waiter, there's something in my... topless tart!

Tuesday 6 November - Chicken biryani for lazy cooks

Wednesday 7 November - J-E-A-N-N-E spells...

Thursday 8 November - Ham, cheese and paprika muffins

Friday 9 November - This could be heaven or this could be hell - Marmite cheese spread

Saturday 10 November - Cilantro, cucumber and tomato salad

Sunday 11 November - Pizza inspirations - Mozzarella, basil and slow-roast tomtoes

Monday 12 November - Neptune Oyster and 2 days in Boston

Tuesday 13 November - Wholly mackerel!

Wednesday 14 November - Wild Honey

Sunday 25 November - Proudly South African verjuice

Monday 26 November - NaBloPoMo, WTSIM, the best laid plans - and some gratuitous chile pics
