Preview of Next Week's Themes

Hi Amanda and Merril, what can I say, rice, rice, rice, I love rice in all sorts of ways and between my native Portuguese origins and Italy I cook more rice dishes then I can think of. I live between Portugal and Italy and rice is alwaysy the big dispute in the family, who makes better rice dishes?! Portuguese food has nerver been on the highlight but I can assure everyone it's one of the tastiest and healthiest of all foods. And I am leaving tomorrow for Portugal for my granddaughter's 7th birthday, so tomorrow I will start on the Portuguese recipes. So you will have me posting all my favourites from Portugal and Italy, boy is it going to be a long rice week!

hi amanda and merrill, sorry to be a bother, but could you pl tell me what is the deadline for this submission? and am i correct in understanding that it is only one recipe submission per competition? many thanks, shayma

Ha! I thought to myself last night that I had a feeling there was a rice challenge coming up soon... :)
