It's Saturday, it's snowing and we're at home with a bulging larder and a full wine rack.Normally that would delight me, but we've got a charity event to attend later. It will be fun to dress up and see my husband in his tux. It will not be fun to slog through the snow.
If that's not your cup of tea, here's a chance to support a worthwhile charity and have fun too, without even leaving your computer.
It's time for Menu for Hope, the food-blog world's online fundraiser that supports the UN World Food Program.
Read more from Pim and Kalyn.
I urge you to participate in any way you can. Last year, I donated a prize and bought lots of chances, winning a gift certificate for luxury food items.
This year, I plan to buy still more chances. But it's not just about winning something, it's about being a part of something bigger and helping others. It's a chance for food bloggers around the world to work together.
It's also time for the Well-Fed Network's Food Blog Awards. Read more and nominate your favorite blogger here.
Welcome to December.

Mimi, thanks for the mention! Tons of snow here, and I hate the snow but I'm trying not to be grumpy. (At least I can stay home and I have plenty to eat!)
Enjoy the event tonight and stay warm. The Menu for Hope is such a wonderful idea, isn't it~hope they make tons more money this year! How lucky you were to have won a prize last year~I do remember that.
Tons of snow here, too, Kalyn. Terrible driving, very little visibility and very bad roads.
Menu for Hope is an efficient way to make money, Jann, fun and a heckuva lot less work than an event. I can't wait to start buying chances.
Hi Mimi!
Just thought I'd pop by and say HI! I'm Bebe (Southern~Gardener from the Vic forum). I so enjoy your blog ~ it makes me hungry!! Love the recipes and information; you do a wonderful job!
Blissfully, Bebe :)
Yes, Bebe! Thanks for visiting - this place makes me hungry, too.
It is a busy time of year!
I hope your event with your hubby was fun. What did you wear??
Velvet trousers with a long, embroidered and appliqued coat. Not many really formal ensembles that night!
