Hi all!

Yes the Foodie Swap is finally happening! It was postponed for various reasons since the original November date, but it is here to stay now! Mark April 13 on your calendars! This is a regular 12-hour swap with banter, check-in and lively discussion encouraged!

As a reminder, a foodie book that is good for this swap is a book, fiction or non-fiction that is centered around food. It may be a food writer's memoir, a behind the scenes look at restaurant life, a novel about foodies, etc etc etc. No culinary cozy mysteries though, please. The book should really be about food, not just have a food in the title. If you are unsure if your book fits, pm me and I'll help you figure it out.

So, who is in??

1. Ri
2. Hoser
3. MsJo (fo sho!)
4. azuki
5. Acey Acey
6. DragonGoddess
7. oi-reader
8. rootmartin
9. Veganmedusa (maybe)
10.
11.

Put me down as a maybe. I'd really like to play, but I need to make sure I'm reasonably current on owed TBRs at that point.

Put me down as a maybe also. I have a book I can use but it has green on the cover. I can't decide what swap to use it for. It is TBR but I'm going to read it next. :giggle: I may just have to find another green cover for the U.S. only swap. :wink:

If you think this swap will be done by Apr 19 then I am in

:bananadance: Woohoo! Keep em coming!

What Ace said!
But I see I'm already signed up lol

I'd like to play, please :)

Can it be about "drink" or need it be particularly about the solid stuff..... "food"?

I can't play after all. My mom is flying in on April 12th and will be here till April 19th. The boys are on Spring Break that week. So we will be bebopping around doing things that week. Since I like playing in the swaps, besides getting the books, I will have to pass this time.

:wave: I'd like to join

How come my name is not up there? you know I am the Queen of the Yummy Yummy Bookbox... :eat:
Of course, depending on the new rule, I may be banned from participating...

Azuki, you are in!

Root, drinks are fine! Keep the signups coming, folks!

I was going to say, "Sign me up, then!" But I see you already did! :giggle:

Can I please be a maybe, depending on how I'm going with my TBRs at the time.

:bump:

I am going to have to miss this one cos we are in Spain from 10th til 24th of April. :rolleyes:

Well, we will forgive you as long as you have a fabulous time and eat tons of yummy food!

I found a book for this that isn't a TBR, so I'm definitely in.

:bananadance:

I'm not wanting to join because I need to get caught up in my mailings but I wanted to ask you a question Ri. I noticed in the non-fiction swap sign-ups that you will be moving to Cincinnati soon. What part of Cincinnati are you moving to? Also maybe Pepper, you and me can meet for lunch or dinner sometime once you get settled in.

So our target move date is April 14 which means that I need to move the date of this swap AGAIN! :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Any suggestions? So sorry everyone! :blush:

Next month? Give me time to read my book. :rolleyes: And you time to recover.
I think I can speak for everyone when I say don't worry about the swap - you'll be stressed enough with everything else. Good luck with the move. :hug:

Sometime when I'm in the city!! I'll be to Europe and DC over the course of the next 7 weeks.

Good luck with the move!!

Boy, this swap sure has bad luck, doesn't it? Will be away until May03, then I will be back for a little while :whistle:

I'm good with whenever, Ri. I'll just keep checking to see what's decided.

Since I'm holding onto a book specifically for this swap, I'm in for whenever.

But, ideally, I'd like to vote for NOT Memorial Day weekend and NOT the weekend of April 18/20.

Thanks for being so flexible, everyone! I'll put up a poll after we are moved into our new place! :rolleyes: :wacko:

Good luck with the move Ri :)

That will give me more time to figure out how to "swap" by watching other threads :blink:
