o.k..so I had a rough day.  I am sitting here at midnight, should be sleeping, but decided to go ahead and post my Saturday Surfing because I am such a creature of habit.

If you must know, my computer is down for the count and I am on the slower, less cool, less helpful computer usually relegated to the kids reports and school stuff.  We are a paperless homeschool as much as possible.

However I am going to prevail on this behomoth. So…

One thing I have not posted about is the blog challenges and roundups that happen regularly.  DaringBakers is only one of the very cool activities that happen every month.

The first is the Royal Foodie Joust  by Jenn, the Leftover Queen.  Every month the winner from the previous month chooses three ingredients that the contestants have to use in their entry.  It is great fun.  For February I entered a Pork Tenderloin with Spicy Orange Honey Sauce

O.k…Next on the list is RootSource Challenge.  The ingredient this month is ..mmm…Orzo!

Almost too late for Master Baker.  March 2 is the last day.   The ingredient is  Cinnamon.  My entry is the Rose and Cinnamon Scented Scones on Kettle and Cup.

An Apple A Day is March 3rd.  You must use apples and one other item from  the following list:

•  Almonds
• Black Tea
• Cinnamon
• Dark Chocolate
• Fish
• Peperoncino
• Tomatoes
