Holiday

The Legacy of a Legend or The Homage to our Hero of Hearts - Wareniki, the flavor of memories from love, ate sour in respect and tears*.
A Taste when Home of Honor: A Homage to My Grandious Grandmother and Her Wonderful Wareniki The kitchen was her and surely our sanctuary (as we girls, sisters were seeking safety within the grace of our grandmother; our mother was violent against us somewhen, when chaos entered our home due to external enviousness?), where warmth and love filled the air like the scent of melting butter and the thought of that delicious dough, and what it would get to be soon. My grandmother, soft in spirit and strong in presence, was the safe harbor of our family; the quiet heart that held us together while the world outside spun in chaos.. (before it also left a mark within.)

The Evolution of Our Kitchen
Ahh, the joys of being Penna Dutch... and obsessed with food. When my great-to-the-fourteenth ancestor, John Jacob Dreibelbis, came over as an indentured servant, he was given a parcel of land after working for seven years. His son, Jacob B, was the one who founded the farm at the end of town. Nowadays, owning a piece of land implies you're rich. Then? Dirt poor. The kitchen still has two shadowboxes of glued fish bones in patterns from the suckers they net-trapped in the river, the only part of the fish that's inedible.

In Praise of the Grand Cheese
Vegetarians outside India, I can't tell you how deprived you are. I didn't know how much I was missing out on until my very brief post-security stint at Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi on my way out of India on Monday morning.

The Best Chocolate Mousse You’ve Ever Had
“Julia Child wasn’t always Julia Child.” I was revisiting the movie Julie and Julia as I was writing this piece for inspiration and one of the characters spoke these words. Julia Child changed everything for us, especially women.

Green Stuff. Runner-Up in A Taste of Home Challenge.
The memory gets hazier every year, but I'll never quite forget the first time I tasted it. Thanksgiving Day was the occasion; we were all gathered together at my paternal grandparents' house, just like every year before or since. I remember it was cold, and that I was pretty young. How young, I can't say for sure. Old enough to feed myself, but not old enough yet to fix my own plate. My Dad walked alongside me down the buffet my Maw-Maw, great-grandmas, aunts, and mother set up in the kitchen. Daddy held the plate for me, loading up that Styrofoam trough with everything I pointed to.

The Top 15 Snack Foods You'll Find In Germany
What Americans think of when they hear the term "snack," they think of common staples such as chips, cakes, cookies, candy bars, and sodas. Americans also don't think of street carts and markets as a great source for snacks and quick bites. But when you're in Germany, snacks look a little bit different and come in a lot of different varieties.

I was born and raised in Utah and the only food more debatably Utahan than Funeral Potatoes is gelatin. (Fun facts: in 2001 Utah name the official state snack: Jell-o. Utahans eat more Jell-o per capita than any other state and are well known for their Green Jell-o salad featuring crushed pineapple.)
