A-Z Theme Reveal: Yummy Fruits

FINAL A to Z Theme RevealA day late on my A-Z reveal. 
After last year 's success with Stereoviews A-Z, I wasn't sure if I could come up with anything  as entertaining and fun. Well, as is always the case in the blog world, I found something I could wrap my thoughts and (ahem) stomach around for 26 days.  

Announcing YUMMY FRUITS A-Z!

Join me in April for a bit of fun, as I choose a representative fruit (out of many!). I guarantee a Free Recipe, some fruit facts and history, songs, books, and movies with said fruit in the titles, and even a joke or two. A light-hearted way to enjoy fruit, one of my favorite foods to eat....and hopefully yours, too! For those of you who have never done the A-Z before, hold onto your computer chairs. You are in for quite a ride. See you there!!

    1. Ha-ha. You should see my collection of recipe books. You would laugh. I couldn't possibly use them all...but good recipes are so hard to resist when you find one.

    1. Thanks, Heather. Someday you will have to take the plunge. It's kind of an addiction in the end. You think you can't possibly do it again, and then you do. That's what happened to me this year (my 2nd time).

  15. I love how the simplest ideas are often the best - I have read so many #atozchallenge posts and never once fruit - and a recipe to boot.... :) I loved popping into your site last year looks like I will enjoy the same again this year...

  16. Subscribing/following from the A to Z Challenge!

    I'm so grateful for the recipes to go along with the fruit. I'm not completely hopeless in the kitchen, just a little unimaginative. In other words, I need all the help I can get! :O)

  18. Excellent idea, Sharon. I love fruit, and always have. As a kid, eating vegetables was a bit of a pain, but fruit, I loved and could eat it all day -- wouldn't have minded substituting meals with fruit. :) I look forward to returning and visiting with you soon.

  20. What a fruity theme! And I mean that in a good way. Everyone needs to eat more, so hope it inspires people to try something new and good for them.

    1. Oh, I agree, but I may as well confess now.....some of my recipes will be tough on the diet. Fruit and desserts have a long history!! But personally, I am happy with just plain "fresh" fruit any day.

  21. OK this is the most unique idea I've seen.

  25. Hi Sharon!
    This sounds like it's going to be a fabulous fruity affair!

    My theme is “If Books Could Speak, What Would They Say” and is guaranteed to be LOTS OF FUN! It is interactive, and bloggers are invited to play along!
    See you around on the A to Z circuit!
