The windows in your kitchen are probably the ones that get used (read: looked out of) the most. And the kitchen is certainly a room we spend a lot of time in. So what happens when you have a bunch of windows, but not necessarily the best view? You know, like if you have a front-row seat to see a brick wall? Or something even worse? You could steal this idea from designer Christine Alcalay, the brains behind the Brooklyn boutique KIWI. (She didn’t have a bad view, but it could be a good idea if you do!) via WordPress https://jonathanwilhoite.wordpress.com/2017/05/30/is-this-the-smartest-way-to-hang-kitchen-curtains-kitchen-hang-ups/

You know what I love? Being surprised by a familiar ingredient or an old recipe. This beet ambrosia does both. Ambrosia is typically a sweet fruit salad studded with marshmallows and chopped nuts, dressed with a sweet, creamy dressing. Beet ambrosia takes its visual cues from traditional ambrosia, but is decidedly savory. A bite of this beet ambrosia is like a bite of the classic beet and goat cheese salad, but easier to eat. The beets are tender and soaked with a vinaigrette, but sweet grapes and salty pistachios keep the salad in balance. The dressing is rich and herby, with a whipped texture and a tanginess, thanks to goat cheese. via WordPress https://jonathanwilhoite.wordpress.com/2017/05/30/recipe-beet-ambrosia-quick-and-easy-weeknight-sides/ American shoppers will soon be able to peruse the aisles of a popular European grocery chain called Lidl in nine different locations in the country.

We think you’re bound to find what you’re looking for — and not too much of what you’re not — at one of these places! via WordPress https://jonathanwilhoite.wordpress.com/2017/05/30/where-to-buy-kitchen-cabinet-hardware-10-sources-for-knobs-and-pulls-shopping/ Welcome to Kitchn’s Food Budget Diaries series, where we show you how people around the country spend money on what they eat and drink.

This will be the second summer my husband and I have owned a grill (our second summer of home-owning!), and we’re coming up on our third grill cleaner. via WordPress https://jonathanwilhoite.wordpress.com/2017/05/30/my-favorite-new-tool-for-cleaning-the-grill-one-good-thing/ If you’re looking for something other than chicken and burgers to grill, shrimp is the answer. When grilled with an herby, garlicky chimichurri sauce that doubles as both a marinade and a dipping sauce, shrimp skewers have enough bold flavor to make you feel like a kitchen rockstar, even though they only take five measly minutes on the grill to cook. Serve them for dinner on a busy weeknight or as a fast and fancy appetizer at your next grilling party. Don’t be surprised if you come back to this recipe over and over again. via WordPress https://jonathanwilhoite.wordpress.com/2017/05/30/recipe-grilled-shrimp-skewers-with-chimichurri-quick-and-easy-weeknight-dinners/ From Apartment Therapy → Are ’80s Kitchens Making a Comeback? via WordPress https://jonathanwilhoite.wordpress.com/2017/05/30/are-1980s-kitchens-making-a-comeback-apartment-therapy/ |
