Theme Reveal – A to Z April 2019 Challenge #AtoZChallenge

Top post on IndiBlogger, the biggest community of Indian Bloggers

April is coming!! Yes, it’s that time of the year, when bloggers from all over the world don their creative hats and blog all through April except Sundays.

I have been participating in this annual mega blogging challenge since 2013 and I have loved being a part of it .

I will be participating in this challenge for the 7th consecutive time.

I did not have a theme for my first A to Z Challenge in 2013. But thereafter, I opted for a theme. My themes for the last 6 years have been:

This year my theme for Blogging from A to Z April 2019 Challenge is…

THEME REVEAL April Blogging from A to Z Challenge 2019

My Theme for the A to Z Challenge 2019 is : Food Talks.

Yes, this April, I am going to talk all about food and nothing else.

Why this theme?

You know, food is our common ground, a universal experience. We are a family of foodies. The husband is a magician in the kitchen and is a chef by passion,  the kid aspires to cook and I am serious about eating good food. As they say, you can’t just eat good food. You’ve got to talk about it too. And you’ve got to talk about it to somebody who understands that kind of food. And that’s YOU!! So this April, I am going to talk all about food, our experiences, experiments, basics, tips, ideas, hacks, trends and much more, yes, a lot of food for thought!

So, pull up a chair. Take a taste. Come join us, this April. Life is so endlessly delicious.

Sign up for the A to Z Challenge today! The sign ups closes on April 6, 2019

Theme Reveal closes on March 28, 2019.

    1. Thanks Shalini. I am looking forward to your Recipes from Kerala and book recommendations too 🙂 Happy AtoZing to you too 🙂

  1. Wow! It’s here already! I’d thought of an idea for this year right away after last year’s challenge but was never able to put it all together efficiently enough to be ready for this year. Mine was about food, also! Perhaps I’ll save it for next year and work on it a little bit at a time (it would take time and pictures).

    Now I have to think hard and fast to see if I can come up with something worthy of participation before the month’s upon me.

    1. I absolutely loved your last year’s posts on ‘Reasons Why You Need an Editor’. It was an interesting and super informative series. Please do participate, Lynda!! Looking forward to your posts, this April. 🙂

    1. Please do participate, Susan. I love reading your thoughtful and insightful posts. And truly appreciate your support too!

      1. That’s what a theme is all about…. ie you write about a subject/category. As it is food is a very vast topic.

        I have written without a theme and on a theme from A to Z. Both are challenging in their own way. Writing on a random new topic almost every day or writing on a planned subject (which could be restrictive) from A to Z has its thrills and chills.

        Looking forward to read your posts, this April, Vartika. Cheers!

    1. Thank you for your kind words, Mayuri. I am looking forward to explore Chennai through your words this April too 🙂

  7. A theme after my heart. This will be the second year I’m giving this challenge a miss and it is largely because of space issues with my server. I still have to clean up. It’s taking longer than I expected because I have to do it file by file.
    Look forward to reading your posts and wish you luck!

    1. Hope your blog issues get sorted soon, Sunita. Truly appreciate your support and warm wishes. You will be missed… I remember your informative and interesting posts on Textiles of India.

    1. I am glad that you are participating this year too, Pradeep. Looking forward to your posts on Journalism Jargon. See you in April 🙂

  9. Wow, this is your 7th year of A2Z challenge, I need to take a lot of tips from you on how to survive such a grueling challenge. Will be looking forward to reading your posts.

    1. Thanks for dropping by, Neha. I am looking forward to read your posts on Travel with Kids too. See you next month! Cheers 🙂

  10. This is the best guest post I’ve read in 2015 (never mind it’s the only one). THIS IS FULL OF SO MUCH WIN. And life makes SO MUCH MORE SENSE NOW. Of course junk food was invented by the devil. It’s all his fault anyway. Trying to make us humans into creatures who will do the devil’s bidding for junk food. That would explain why devil’s food cake is called devil’s food cake. *scratches head* and MAYBE that’s why junk food is so unhealthy for us.
