    Recap of Buffet on Table, Blogging Marathon # 56

    I do blogging marathons (bm) periodically with a group of food bloggers. Every month we blog 3 consecutive days a week, at least two weeks a month and in the months of April and September, we do a month long marathon taking Sundays off. We call these month long marathons Mega Blogging Marathons. These marathons are theme based and in the past I did 3 mega marathons.

    Indian Cooking Odyssey in April of 2014
    Around the World in 30 Days with ABC Cooking in Sept 2014
    Fire Up Your Oven in April 2015
    and this past September it was Buffet on Table.

    For the latest edition of mega blogging marathon Buffet on Table, we had weekly themes with a twist. The twist being, each post for a theme has to be from a different country or a state. Here is the recap.
