Travel Week
Malaysia's Saturday Night Market Is a Foodie Paradise
Recently reader FinnLover traveled to the Malaysian capital of Kuala Lumpur. While visiting the vast city, she spent one Saturday night hitting up Little India's weekly street market. With its incredible diversity — there are stalls that serve Thai, Chinese, Malaysian, Western, and Indonesian cuisine — Finn describes the event as the "biggest food celebration ever."
Can You Guess Which Country the Beer Is From?
Regardless of where you are on a sizzling hot day, every culture understands the gratification that comes with opening a bottle or pouring a glass of frothy, ice-cold beer. For example, President Barack Obama recently brought two men divided on race relations together over a few cold ones. But unless you've done a lot of traveling around the world (or really know your brewskies), you might be surprised to find out where the world's most popular labels come from.
Revisiting Travel Week

Off To Market Recap: Sushi Serving Set
Last week I told you how I love to have the correct serving dishes for specific international items. Although I have never been to Japan, I really want a fabulous sushi serving set. When I'm out eating sushi, I always admire the delicate, beautifully patterned serving sets and want to bring this sentiment into my home.

52 Weeks of Baking: Cherry Clafouti
This week I decided to bake something French for travel week. I originally thought I'd make a classic creme brulee, but after flipping through Julia Child's wonderful Mastering the Art of French Cooking, I landed on a clafouti instead. The anniversary of Julia Child's birth is approaching and in order to celebrate, I thought it was time to try mastering something new.
Fast & Easy DInner: Salad Nicoise
When I was in Nice, France, I was mildly surprised to see that a large chunk of the salads on menus were Nicoise salads - especially because Nicoise is a French phrase that means "as prepared in Nice." Dishes a la Nicoise generally include tomatoes, black olives, and garlic. The quintessential salad contains these basics and additional tasty, fresh ingredients like green beans, tuna, and hard boiled eggs.
Love Is The Sound of a Spoon on Creme Brulee
One of the best sounds in the world is the lovely crack that happens when your spoon breaks through the top of a creme brulee. The caramelized sugar crust gives way to a luscious creamy custard and the lovely sound means that an amazing dessert is awaiting you. Since today is National Creme Brulee Day, I think we should all head into the kitchen and make one of our very own.
Become One With Your Inner Sushi Chef
Today our "travels" took us to the elegant cuisine of Japan. Sushi, one of their most popular exports, happens to be a really big weakness of mine. However it's a rather expensive - and delicious - hobby.
