Last night, while I was sitting in a traffic jam at 0:30 am for no apparent reason on a high way in the middle of bleeping nowhere I was thinking about this blog. Those of you who participate in Tuesdays with Dorie will probably recognise what I'm about to suggest.
The recipes for the next couple of weeks are always posted in the sidebar on the left. I was wondering if you guys would appreciate it if we also published a post as soon as all the recipes for one month would be known? This way you'll get a reminder whenever new recipes are posted and you don't have to check the blog every now and then to see if a new recipe has been posted.
I've also been wondering if it was a good idea to make a post on each Thursday where everyone can leave their link if they made that weeks recipe, this way you don't have to go through the entire blogroll (which isn't a big deal right now, but if the group expands a lot this might be handy).
Let me know your thoughts and also feel free to leave any suggestions for the blog in a comment below!

I love both of these ideas and think it would help with the "traffic" flow :)
ReplyDeleteI think that it's a good idea to have the recipes posted for the month because if you only have time to do two recipes a month, then you can choose which ones you would like to complete.

I think it's a great idea to have a monthly post but to also keep the recipes on the side bar. I know I just highlight and print the side bar so I know what I am making for the month.
ReplyDeleteI think the Thursday post is a good idea - I think that is sort of like the tell all?
I like both ideas. Btw, I definitely still want to participate in CEiMB Thursdays (except this one). Please add me to the blogroll (I never got your email...). Thanks! :)
ReplyDeleteElina, I added you back onto the blogroll and recipe rotatione! Thanks for your comment!
ReplyDeleteI will do my best to get back in the swing of CEiMB. Thanks!!!
ReplyDeleteHey Liz, glad to have you back: I'll add you back onto the blogroll and recipe rotation.
ReplyDeleteI like both ideas too. There's a utility caled Mr. Linky that lets people leave links to their blogs in the comments of a post for everyone to see... That might be useful here for the weekly Thursday recipe posts.
ReplyDeletePS Please add me back to the participant list, I want to stay in the group. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI like to see the entire month of recipes so I can choose which two or more I want to cook. Sometimes I cook them all. Marthe I say just make it simple for yourself - whatever works well for you. I'm so glad we are up and running and a good group of participating bloggers! We have some good picks coming up - I am looking forward to those.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Peggy above...I'm glad we are still going strong, and I'm looking forward to the upcoming picks!
ReplyDeleteAs for the weekly post in which we'd say whether we participated, I like that idea. I do enjoy going through the blogroll list and seeing who cooked along, and this would make it a bit easier to do so. That way, only the people who cooked it would be listed, etc.
Thanks again, Marthe, for everything you've done here!
Heide: I added you back onto the blogroll as well as the recipe rotation!
