Novel Food Summer 2009

Calling all readers with a passion for cooking and cooks with a love of literature: the new edition of Novel Food, the culinary/literary event that Lisa of Champaign Taste
and Simona of briciole co-launched a few seasons ago is here again.

As in the previous editions, Lisa and Simona are interested in published literary works (a novel, novella, short story, memoir, bio, poem) that provided you with culinary inspiration.

Here are the simple rules for participating in Novel Food:

1. Prepare a dish of your choosing that has a connection to a published literary work (novel, novella, short story, memoir, bio, poem).
2. Publish a post about it on your blog by the end of Saturday July 18, 2009 (midnight, Pacific Time), referencing the Novel Food event. Include a link to Lisa's announcement or to Simona's announcement. If you wish, you can use the Novel Food logo.
3. Send an e-mail to Lisa (champaigntaste AT gmail DOT com) or to Simona
   (simosite AT mac DOT com) and include your name, blog name and blog address, and a permanent link to your post. Please, include the words "Novel Food" in the email subject, so they can more easily retrieve the message in our inbox.
4. Non-English submissions are fine. If possible, include an introduction in English.

If you don't have a blog, send them an email telling us about the recipe, the literary work that inspired it, and, if you have it, a picture of what you made: they will add it to the roundup as well.

Note: If you don't receive an answer to your email or a comment on your post within two days of sending Lisa or Simona the email, please contact them again: sometimes email messages get lost in cyberspace.

Lisa and Simona will do a roundup soon after the deadline.
