Georgian

Georgian khachapuri has been on my to-do list for some time now, which is kind of ironic because I’d never actually had it before. I think I first saw Compass Rose‘s khachapuri on a D.C. food blog. It’s gotten much accolades – they apparently served 10,000 of them during their...

Cookbook Club and Sweet Cheese Mutabbaq

Notes from a Messy Kitchen

My Cook Book Club met this Sunday for the much anticipated CHEESE EDITION! After an entire week of the SNAP Challenge I don’t think I’ve ever been more excited about cheese in my life, and my excitement about cheese is already quite high. We had a smaller group this time,...

Heirloom Tomato, Squash and Pepper Gratin

Notes from a Messy Kitchen

Wow, I’ve really been off the grid! I’ll blame it on a little bit of travel and a lot of writer’s block. Or maybe the other way around. We got back from an awesome weekend in Atlanta last night, and tomorrow I head to South Dakota. Maybe I’ll just leave...

Holy (Not)Cow! Garlicky Baked Vegan Cheese Spread

Notes from a Messy Kitchen

April Fools and Breakfast Casserole

Notes from a Messy Kitchen

Yes, April Fools Day was on Monday. And it’s now Thursday. I think. (It is Thursday, right?) I’m not really sure, it’s been a strange couple of weeks. Which makes this title fit just fine. I’ve been exhausted all week. And inordinately clumsy (which is saying something). And I seem...

Vegetarian Chili with Pecans and Chocolate & Cheesy Beer Bread

Various Other Ramblings

When I saw Joanne’s post a few weeks back, I just knew that I had to make the whole shebang. Chocolate. Chili. Beer. Cheese. So many things Jo likes. I decided to make it on Sunday night, since to me chili is a Sunday night ordeal, not a quick weeknight...
