ONE FAMILY. SOME FOOD. ALL THE LOVE.
(Stuffed Peppers) I promise we have a scientifically, random selection process for the weekly country, yet, we keep finding ourselves in the Balkan region. And here we are now in Albania. The fourth Balkan country out of the total 17 countries we’ve experimented with to date. We’ve already covered Montenegro, North Macedonia, and Greece. Not …
We don’t actually call it quiche, because then the boys wouldn’t eat it. However, call it breakfast pie and apparently you get a legitimate household following. Making it sound more like dessert with a side of pancakes, has propelled it through the ranks as a Thomas household go-to dinner. As for Chris, he would eat …
Way back when ago, when we lived in Orlando, we had some pretty awesome neighbors. Then we got to keep them for almost ten years. Chris and I moved into our house as super young 20-something’s, just out of college with a brand new baby. David and Fatima and their two boys came to introduce …
I didn’t let myself have the big Global Kidchen Facebook reveal to all my friends and family until I was able to be consistent in writing my posts. I was doing good. I’ve had something ready every Tuesday morning for the last couple months – didn’t know how to set the automatic timer – but …
Hey, Siri Lanka Each week a country name is drawn out of a cup – and in the whole wide world, we have found ourselves going back and forth a good amount between Asia and the Balkans. I promise it’s random. So, without further ado, we are back in Asia with a recipe from Sri …
We are heading back to the Balkan’s this week and trying out a recipe from Montenegro called Cevapi. And for a such a tiny, little country, they seem to have all the right things going on. They have coastline and beaches, mountains and canyons, history and culture. And even more amazing, it’s so abundantly scenic …
My Japanese Influence I never thought we would get to the Japanese cuisine segment so early into this expedition, but here we are. Big time hooray. Actually, I am part Japanese and am SO proud of the story from which I came. I am so glad to be able to share my own family history. …
You have probably noticed a theme to my vacation style by now. I love the beach. I love the mountains, and I’ve been a lucky enough girl to have the best of them all. Spring is showing tiny signs that its not to far off, but I have been hiding in my igloo the past …
Grilled Meats and Street Food! We kind of love street food. There is just something about the atmosphere of the markets, the realness and the community behind it all. You can always sense the pride in the vendors that work together to provide a meal that can feed the community. The butchers who have honed …
My Latin love affair continues, shhh… don’t tell my husband. Actually, it’s more of a love triangle – he was there, he took part. We made tamales right after a Latin-style feast and Tomatillo Salsa! We’ve never made them before, but personally, I think they turned out great. If we’re being honest, Jake did most …
