One of my favorite recurring events is Sugar High Friday, created by Jennifer, the Domestic Goddess.
April's Sugar High Friday hosted by Chandra at Lick Your Spoon had everybody drunk before they were even halfway through the list of awesome, boozy delectables.
Next month is my turn to host and I'm really excited. The focus is on ginger,
And in case you need some inspiration -
I've shared some of my personal favorites here before, but in case you haven't seen some of the desserts with ginger....
The Ginger Apple crisp is a special treat in the Fall when the apples are particularly crisp and tart.

Ooooh ginger is the theme next month?? Ooooooh that sounds wonderfulishous! I adore ginger in every way shape and form. I see you do too. :D
oh, i HATE ginger but i am going to try this...
Ruth, Have you tried ginger tea. Its delicious hot tea. Here's how I make it. My friend swears the 1 cup she drinks daily keeps her away from colds
Crush 1" ginger piece & boil in 1 cup of water.
Add tea bag, boil again
Add 1/3 cup milk, boil again.
Add sugar & serve with cookies (the Marie type, thin wheat biscuits)
All the boiling makes sure the ginger gets completely abosorbed in the tea you finally drink.
Cheers

Charu, I do drink ginger tea, but without the milk. I love it with some lemon juice and when I'm suffering from a cold - a little honey.
Nerissa, ginger is the best so I look forward to your entry.
Barbie - maybe this event will convert you.
Thanks all for dropping by
Yay Ruth! I love ginger! Can't wait to join.
Mmm, I love ginger! Thinking of wonderful ginger desserts is the easy part. Thinking of an exciting ginger dessert I've never made before, though, that's the challenge!
Ooh I cook with ginger ALL the time. what to share? thanks for hosting.
Cath, glad you're excited - me too!
Danielle, I know what you mean. I use ginger in many things - biscotti, apple crisps, cookies,...the challenge will be to do something completely different. Good thing we have some time.
Gabriella, I can't wait to see what you come up with.
Perfect - it's just starting to get cold here in Australia. A warming spicy dessert is just the ticket! Great choice!
To all you ginger lovers out there you MUST try some White Stilton with Mango and Candied Ginger. It's sooooooo good. Here's my blog entry on the subject.

I am definitely excited to see what you all come up with. Don't forget to email me the links once they're ready.

I just emailed the link to you, but just in case, my entry is a Lemongrass Saffron Soda and Ginger Ice Cream Float.
