… and it's time for me, too. (In Polish, "pora na pora" is a pun: it means both "time for leeks" and "it's leek time.") I hereby announce to one and all that I'm starting a leek event. It's such a healthy vegetable, and it can't hurt to add a little of that healthiness to our winter days and gather recipes using it all in one place. I think this veggie is worth promoting a bit. You can read about its benefits **[HERE](https://flowers-recipes.com/behold-him-mr-leek/).**

![time for leeks](https://flowers-recipes.com/images/2011/02/por_baner.jpg "time for leeks")

I invite you to join in, and I hope someone besides me will be up for it ;). Please link to the event in your recipe post (or paste the banner), and send me the link to your recipe or leave it in a comment on the site so I can collect them all at the end. I've only been blogging for a short time and this is my first event, so if I forgot something or am doing something wrong, let me know :D

The event has also been submitted to Durszlak (a Polish food portal) – **[HERE](http://durszlak.pl/akcje/pora-na-pora).**

**Banner code:**

  Interesting idea :) I have a few leek dishes I've been wanting to try… so maybe I'll make them sooner than I thought… including cannelloni with leeks and a leek tart :)
- **Grażyna** · 2011-02-02 14:45
  I love leeks and I'll definitely join in :)
- **n i k a** · 2011-02-02 16:19
  great idea!
  Can we add recipes from the archive? Because I have a leek tart on my blog that's well worth recommending! :D
- **flowerek (Author)** · 2011-02-02 16:33
  I'm glad I won't be the only one doing leeks :)
  Nika, you can add archive recipes too. What I'm after is for us to cook a bit with leeks during this time, but also to collect interesting recipes and encourage people who don't blog to join in and cook too. Just please post your links only after the event starts, so from 02/14.
- **Mirabelka** · 2011-02-02 23:22
  Cool :) I like leeks and I'd love to join in :)
- **Rynn** · 2011-02-10 04:30
  Maybe I'll finally get myself to like leeks… because I've never really liked them on their own, but in the salads and casseroles I've had the pleasure of eating, they went down smoothly, tasty and unnoticed. Maybe this will be a challenge ;) After all, we need to broaden our horizons! Too bad all I see in the stores are ugly leeks.
- **flowerek (Author)** · 2011-02-10 11:55
  How cool :))) I see on Durszlak that 15 people are already planning to take part in the event :) That makes me so happy :)

  Hello,
  I'd really like to take part in the event. I've only just started blogging, so I don't quite know yet how to paste the banner under a recipe, could I ask you for advice on that??
  I'm adding my own leek salad to the event:

  Best wishes,

    Hello. Thank you for joining the event :) Honestly, I haven't totally figured out blogging yet either, but the way I add the banner is by saving it on my computer as an image and pasting the image under the post. To put the banner permanently on the blog, I copy the code given in the event post and paste it into Widgets (where you can add text to the side of your blog page). Best wishes, Basia
