"canadian blogging by post" news and stories

Earlier this year, we saw the launch of a new Canadian blogging event, Canadian Blogging by Post that followed in the footsteps of the international Blogging by Mail and the european Euro Blogging by Post. The premise is the same for all of the events: packages of food and food-related items are shipped out and received by all participants. The events give everyone a chance to try new foods, "meet" new bloggers and just generally have a good time.

A new round of Canadian Blogging by Post is being hosted by Jasmine, of the beautiful blog Confessions of a Cardamom Addict. The theme is "our season's bounty," meaning that at least part of the package should focus on fall, fall flavors or fall foods. Unfortunately for some of us, the event is only open to Canadian bloggers (hence the name!), but we can all participate vicariously by keeping an eye on the host blog for a roundup of all the packages in the next few weeks.

Open only to the grand array of Canadian food bloggers who have sprung up over the last couple of years - CBBP: Canadian Blogging By Post (a take on my own Euro Blogging By Post or EBBP for short).

Canadian Blogging By Post is an exchange of food parcels. The first round is just been announced at Sweet Pleasures. The rules are simple but it is up to each participant in what they send. There is a theme of sorts - Chocolate - but the other 4 or 5 items are up to you. You send off your parcel on the 7th May and in return receive one from a mystery benefactor. This parcel exchange is terribly popular in the Euro-blogging zone; the squeals of pleasure across the provinces are sure to be equal to those across Europe!
