Romanian Round-up and February Destination

Our December destination was Romania and making a delicious Romanian Apple Cake was Ana-Maria at Ala bala portocala


Ana-Maria also made a traditional Romanian dish of stuffed cabbage rolls called Sarmale, don't they look delicious?


Over at Nummy Kitchen I made Romanian Easter Bread that was enjoyed by everyone, especially the kids :)



I hope everyone is having a wonderful New Year! For February our randomly selected country is Vietnam!


Have a fun time trying some Vietnamese cuisine and don't forget to check-in with a link to your blog post!

December Destination -- Romania


Okay guys, our December destination is Romania! I see that everyone (myself included) missed out on making a Colombian dish for November but hopefully that was just because November was an extra busy month and we can find some time this month to try a Romanian dish.

Post about your Romanian dish any time this month and check-in any time before December 30th, I hope we get some travelers this month :) Whether or not you are able to participate, I would like to thank those of you still along with us for MKMW and wish you all a wonderful holiday season!

Happy cooking,
Andrea

Our November destination is Colombia! Do you know Colombian cuisine? Have you ever been there? Have you found any great links to some Colombian recipes? Here's the place to share, just leave a comment and we can talk about what we are making for MKMW -- Colombia.

After you have posted your Colombian dish, please leave a comment here with a link to your post by November 30th (you can post and comment any time during the month) for our MKMW -- Colombia round-up.

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
