The second edition of The Carnival of Travelers appears today, with the theme Food & Beverage.
How can you go wrong blogging about two subjects near and dear to my heart? Well, other than miss blogging about the theme or have a link that doesn’t work – you can’t!
Here’s what travelers have to say about Food & Beverage:

Thanks for a great carnival, Mary Jo, and a fun topic. All I can say is, like Rachael Ray, “Yum-o!”
Mary Jo,
Thank you for including my post. What a great topic and quite a turn out. Will post on the carnival soon.
Thank you both for participating. It’s travel stories and information like yours that make the world a little smaller and richer in community.
Steve, thanks for the Kao Tom recipe! I was recently in Thailand and really enjoyed the traditional breakfast. It is surprising at first, but you really start to love it — the warm, flavorful broth is easy on the stomach in the morning.
Mary Jo, What an entertaining and insightful carnival. Keep them coming because I truly enjoy them.
Thanks. Organizing a carnival takes more work than I realized, but it is fun!
Hi Mary Jo,
How do you handle carnival participants who don’t link back to your site even though you are the carnival host?
What percentage of them link back to your site?
Thanks,
Jim
