What's cooking this weekend? We are thinking about warm and comforting casseroles, as well as holiday parties! Cheese boards (see above), sparkling wines, and delicious nibbles all sound very good. What about you? What are you cooking? Here are a few ideas from The Kitchn's past week.
Poking around the kitchen the other morning, I discovered a handful of eggs, two leftover tortillas, a knob of cheese, and a jar of salsa. It was clear what I had to do. Make migas.
Nothing says Holiday Gift Gift giving for Kitchen enthusiasts quite like handmade items. We all take great pride to produce the best our kitchen possibly can and it's always nice to be able to support independent artisans and crafters who take just as much pride as we do. The kitchen is truly where handmade can come full circle, especially with these 10 great finds!

She graciously shared some photos and the story. Here's a look at how she and her husband remodeled their kitchen for under $500, along with some of the cost-saving tips that let them do it for so little.
I write this with an icy sunrise view of Lake Michigan. Maxwell and I are in Chicago for some meetings, staying with some good friends who live in a wonderful, warm apartment with a big kitchen. But let's not mince words: it's freezing here.
Welcome to December's open discussion thread at The Kitchn. This month is all about the holidays and winter nourishment. Weeknight meals, hot soups, holiday parties, and cookie baking — this is your spot to bring up any questions or good ideas you have this month. How can we help you?
This picture will make sense in a minute. Do you have a kitchen blooper hidden away in your past? You'd think the people we love and cook for every day would forgive our rookie mistakes...but no! They like to remind us and taunt us with the story whenever possible, don't they? Here's our ultimate blooper - care to share yours?!
