Germany Round-up and November Destination

I'm so glad we had a couple of participants this past month! Your German inspired dishes look great, here is our round-up...

First off, Rosa at Cooking with Rosie, who happens to live in Germany, made Bavarian Obatzter, a cheesy pub food that sounds like a delicious appetizer or snack.



Next up, Joanna at In Search of Lost Time made Choucroute garni, a German inspired French dish with sauerkraut, apples, and smoky meats, looks wonderful! I have to say thanks to Joanna for suggesting we 'visit' Germany again this October, what a great MKMW tradition to start :)


Over at Nummy Kitchen, I made a simple German Apple Cake that was chock full of apples from a recent trip to the orchard. I had a great time getting back to MKMW, and hope everyone else did as well!


For November, our randomly selected country is... Colombia! Tomorrow I will start a post where we can discuss the cuisine of Colombia and post links to possible Colombian dishes to try, another great idea from Joanna, thank you.

MKMW October -- Germany


MKMW has been pretty quiet the past few months, but earlier this week Joanna commented that she still wanted to participate with MKMW and suggested we do Germany for October like we did last year to celebrate Octoberfest! I think a lot of us still want to have fun with MKMW and this was such a great idea to get everyone cooking again, thanks Joanna.

The official Oktoberfest ended on October 4th but I know there are still lots of parties going all throughout the month featuring delicious German dishes and drinks. If you would like to participate, please post a German dish or meal for MKMW and leave a comment here with a link to your post.

I'm planning a MKMW Germany round-up on Nov. 1st (if we get some participation :) ) and maybe we could do one country a month to make My Kitchen My World easier to remember. I hope to see some old MKMW friends participating and want to welcome anyone else who would like to cook and 'travel' along with us! If you have any country suggestions, please let me know.

Take care,
Andrea

Please comment here with a link to your MKMW Germany post by October 31st, thanks!

September Destinations!

Hello travelers,
So sorry for not updating MKMW this summer, now that September is here I thought we'd better start over for the month. We only had one participant in July for the Bahamas and Ukraine so I figured if anyone wants to take September and catch up by making a recipe from those countries please feel free to and I'll do a big round-up at the end of the month featuring all four countries.

Our first country for September is...



South Africa

check-in date September 12th

next up is

Mongolia

check-in date September 26th

Once again, I'm really sorry for not updating since July, things just got extra busy for me this summer and blogging had to take a little break, and since almost everyone hadn't participated in MKMW for a while I thought you guys probably were needing a break too. I hope that we can get some of our members posting again and keep traveling through food together :)

Can't wait to see what you can come up with for South Africa and Mongolia!

Thanks,

Andrea

Macedonia Round-up and Bahamas Check-in!


Welcome to the My Kitchen My World -- Macedonia round-up!


We have three dishes to share for MKMW Macedonia, first up we have Ajvar, a vegetable spread which also makes a delicious sounding pasta sauce. Check out small pieces of inspiration and accomplishment for the recipe and to find out a couple different uses for this versatile dish.




Over at
Nummy Kitchen, I made little Macedonian Breads, which turned out to be like mini pitas, I guess if Judy and I had gotten our dishes together we would have had a perfect Macedonian meal :)


What a fun little round-up for Macedonia, thanks for participating!


Our current MKMW destination is The Bahamas! Check-in day was supposed to be yesterday, but we spent the day at Lake Michigan for my birthday and didn't get home until very late so I didn't have time to post, sorry! Not quite the Bahamas but still a fun little day at the beach.

Please leave a comment in this post with a link to your post for MKMW The Bahamas, feel free to post and comment all week long, the round-up should be up next Saturday, so try to check-in here by Friday night. Thanks so much for cooking along, I can't wait to see what Bahamian foods everyone can come up with!

Take care,
Andrea
