OR we could kick it off with seasonal produce.<br><br>
So, peaches are in season still, I think.<br><br>
Maybe we could focus on peaches as our first ingredient.<br><br>
drgenie? Is this in line with your thinking?

We can start with one person, genie, perhaps, that can pick this week's ingredient, and i can make the new thread a sticky for the week. At the end of the week, Genie can pick the next picker, etc until everyone who wants has picked? At the end of the week anyone who is interested in picking can volunteer and she can pick them?

I just recently started working for our family business, which is in the produce realm..... We grow, pack and sell, but we just love produce in general and go to conventions and stuff like that, thus the pics. Did you know there is a National Watermelon Queen? <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"><br><br>
I am in there like swimwear! And I think your set-up is perfect Bux and I think something seasonal would be great!<br><br><b>Just a thought</b>: What about if occassionally we make the food item a specific herb or spice? That way people who want a meat dish can make a meat dish and veg people could find a way to incorporate it in their veg stuff?

Sounds good to me!

I like the spice idea too...I think we can broaden our horizons as much as possible so stretch as far as you want......think outside the bun!!!<br><br>
I'd say anything goes....seeds, nuts, grains, spices, specific ingredients, as well as the obvious fruits, veggies, etc......and let's make some of them a challenge so we can have fun discovering and trying new foods too.<br><br>
I like Bux's idea......let's start with peaches. That's an easy one. I'll think of something a little more obscure for next week.

I wanna get in on this but I don't have peaches available. Poor ol' WI. I think we have nectarines, similar tastes right? Otherwise I'll just watch you guys....<br><br>
:wipe drool:

 

[drgenie]

Nectarines would work too. Basically peaches without the fuzz.<br><br>
They don't sell peaches in WI? Wow.....
