I’m seriously getting pretty giddy about my little trip around the world. I spent some time over the weekend figuring out where I want to visit. Here is the tentative list.
Again, give me a shout out if I need to swap out one country for another.
These are listed in alphabetical order:
1. America
2. Armenia
3. Argentina
4. Australia
5. Austria
6. Bahamas
7. Barbados
8. Belarus
9. Belgium
10.Brazil
11. Canada
12. Chile
13. China
14. Columbia
15. Croatia
16. Cuba
17. Czech Republic
18. Ecuador
19. Egypt
20. England
21. Equatorial Guinea
22. Ethiopia
23. Finland
24. France
25. Germany
26. Greece
27. Hungary
28. India
29. Ireland
30. Italy
31. Japan
32. Malta
33. Maldives
34. Mexico
35. Morocco
36. New Zealand
37. Nigeria
38. Norway
39. Portugal
40. Russia
41. Scotland
42. Spain
43. Sweden
44. Switzerland
45. Taiwan
46. Thailand
47. The Philippines
48. Trinidad and Tobago
49. Turkey
50. Venezuela
51. Vietnam
52. Wales
Some of these countries scare the dickens out of me. Like Equatorial Guinea?!?! I didn’t even know where that one was on the map… let alone what kind of food they make.
Thanks be for the internet and the Barnes and Noble down the street. Turns out that Equatorial Guinea is a teeny tiny country situated in the west central area of Africa. Their food sounds delish- grilled fish with avacado sauce. Sounds like a perfect meal to try in the summer time.
See?? This is going to be fun!
Can you do me a favor?
If you have a tried and true delicious recipe from any of these countries (but specifically from the more obscure countries), would you email it to me? Help a sister out! leahjoywise@hotmail.com
I hope that you join me on this frightening and exciting culinary adventure.
XO,
Leah

My dear fellow blogger, I have nominated you, in very good company if I do say so myself, for a Versatile Blogger Award. Now, I know perfectly well that some of you have previously been recognized with this particular honor, and I will not require you to follow the acceptance “rules” to the letter; frankly, on this my third receipt of this very welcome recognition it has taken me a couple of long days just to respond properly, whereas I don’t struggle quite so much to write a fresh post a day under normal circumstances.
What I would like to suggest to each of you in response to this is that instead of doing the usual, you make a post one day soon that tells us what fed your drive to express yourself in a blog and your personal flexibility and versatility. Was it in your training to try to diversify and strengthen and deepen your skills and interests, were you born curious, or was it serendipitous? Is your family or educational background particularly creative, or were you the unique artistic one in the bunch? I’m interested in our sharing what shapes us as creative beings, and I think this VBA recognition is an appropriate time to take a breath and consider it.
With my deep admiration!

Sounds amazing! I can’t wait to see all your posts. And cook along sometimes. I will ask one of my best friend’s for a Croatian recipe. She’s a fabulous cook! š

Steph and I are friends with a guy that owns the Red Door Tavern, his name is Xavier and he is Armenian. I’ll ask him for a good recipe.
