STEEMIT CULINARY CHALLENGE #47 - New Theme Announcement





"You can't just eat good food.  You've got to talk about it too" ~ Kurt Vonnegut.


After celebrating the Steemit Culinary Challenge's first birthday a few weeks ago, I'm delighted to return now with the first theme of its second year!  As you can see I gave the SCC a bit of a makeover, and I hope you like it.  New year, new style, why not.  I will also be preparing my new project "Make It Healthy" over the next couple months, to be launched in January, so I will keep you updated on that.  I know many of you are excited at the prospect of Steemit's first community recipe book... as am I!!!


I'm practically bursting with excited anticipation here as I think of all the fabulous recipes and photography yet to come into existence because of this challenge!  The talent within the foodie community on Steemit is impressive, and never fails to inspire me, or make me smile, or even make my jaw drop in awe.  And it's not all about appearance - I see gorgeous creations all the time I'd never even lick let alone eat - but the actual recipes and ingredients, preparation methods, combinations of flavours, textures, artistic style, experimentation, adaptability, originality.  We've had literally hundreds of entries over the last year, admired by more people than we can ever know, and the source of many life-changing-diet-changing discussions for so many of us.  It's really true... the joy of preparing and eating good food makes you want to talk about it, and share it.


To begin the second year of the SCC I decided to choose a theme and judge the first round myself, and then from next week onwards the guest judges will be from the Steemit community as is tradition.  So without any more waffle I wish you all stacks of fun over the weekend as you get your ideas and groceries sorted.  I can't wait to see what you make!

The design is adorable and it makes me excited to participate. I'm Bulgarian and I would love to share something from my national cuisine ^^

Thank you @ivaneta, I appreciate your kind compliment :-) I would love to see some Bulgarian food entered in the challenge! I hope the theme for this week makes sense to you... apparently 'rambler' doesn't translate so well!

Thanks very much @biglipsmama! Took me ages but I love doing this kind of thing :-) Hope all is good with you on the other side of the world!

Very nice

What does this even mean? I would appreciate a simplified English version.
;)

Very nice

Sorry @breadcentric, of course... the theme is: a meal for a very hungry walker/hiker.

A 'rambler' is a person who goes hiking in the countryside :-)

Whereabouts are you from?

Poland :)
This reminds me of a lady in the Pieniny mountains in Poland who would bring two barrels, one with milk and one with sour milk onto the trails and sell it.

Sounds like I have to make something more, this sounds like my food category :)

Ah Poland. I love the accent!

You can't really go wrong with this theme, so I look forward very much to seeing what you make! Let's see if this translation makes sense to you:

"posiłek dla bardzo głodnego górskiego piechura"

:-)

I'm also from Poland and this translation is perfect! :)

Ah that's good to know... thanks @anna.urbanska! Translating is not always so easy :-)

Love the new design! Definitely looking forward to joining in again and seeing what everyone else submits! :)

hey there @plantstoplanks! I think your food is fab so I definitely look forward to seeing more of it! Thanks very much :-)

That is really a nice, new look! Perfect for recipes!

Thank you! I had loadsa fun designing it :-)

I really like new design of SCC :) Of course you can count on my entry for this week! I'm so excited to make again food for this contest! Happy to see you're back! :)

Thanks so much @babettxx! I adore your food and am very happy you're still eager to cook for us! Hooray!

Just wow... love the new design. Happy the SCC is back. Really busy with the move and work but I'll try to cook something up ;)

Thanks very much Amy, I'm happy you like it! It's a pity not to use your logo design any longer as I still like it a lot, but I can take it out the box every now and then in future when I mention the history of the SCC!

I know you're super busy and always appreciate you taking the time to comment even when you can't find time to cook :-) But if you do - happy days!

Very nice

Wow! The new look is amazing! How did you put it together? And a book of Steemian recipes, that's fantastic. It looks and sounds like you've been keeping very busy.

Well hello there @boxcarblue. I was going to stop by your blog soon to have a nosey what you've been up to lately as I haven't forgotten you!

Thanks very much - I used gimp image editor and just did loads of layers of png images, basically 'digital scrapbooking' if that's what to call it. I always loved the scrapbook look, and am going to style the recipe book contest in a similar way I reckon. I think we have such a fantastic opportunity now with the uncensored blockchain to really spread truth and do good things with all our creativity and technical skills etc etc... and there's so many people behind the project already... I think there's a desire for better health now which is just as well since the world's getting sicker!

Hope all is well with you and your family in Japan? :-)

I'm not up to anything new in particular and things are well. Thanks!! I'm not familiar with gimp image editor, but it sounds like something fun to play with. I imagine you could lose track of time pretty easily doing digital scrap booking.

Again, the designs look great! They really add to the contest.

I really do appreciate your support and compliments @boxcarblue! Thanks so much :-)

Thank you @gabrielamosqueda! I see you are a pastry chef, I will have a look through your blog :-)
