The World Adventure Begins


It's been a while since I've posted here, but that is all changing in the coming year. I've put together a challenge for myself that will last through 2013.  Twice a month (assuming life doesn't get in the way) I'll be tackling 3-5 recipes (along with a drink or two) from regions around the world.  This could be by continent, country or state.

The goal is by the end of the year to have made 100 dishes that I've never made before.  Most of the recipes used will be found via the internet, so I will of course provide links as well as any changes I make, my thoughts on the food and any changes I may make for the future.

I encourage you to sign up as a follower so you can tag along as Shannon and I head down this road.  We plan on making enough food for 8 people, so if you are interested in attending one of the dinners please let me know.

The first dinner is taking place January 19th and is already booked. We'll be headed to Morocco, as I love the spices used in their cuisine and have never attempted a dish from there (or anywhere in Africa for that matter).

In the coming weeks/months I'll be attempting to make food from the following places:

Asia: Vietnam - Thailand - China - Cambodia (maybe)

African: Morocco (of course) - Ethiopia

Middle East: Afghanistan - Israel

Europe: Germany - France (yikes) - Spain - Greece

South America: Peru - Brazil

Caribbean: Jamaica

North America: Canada - The South (broad, I know)

Finally, and I kind of hesitate to do this (but oh well, I'll be setting up an Amazon wish list of culinary supplies... so if you enjoy the blog and/or the food and want to get me something - go for it! No pressure...
