Wienerschnitzel {Oktoberfest Inspired}
Less than 50 miles North of us, nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains, on the Chattahoochee River, sits Helen, Georgia….a re-creation of a Bavarian alpine village complete with cobblestone streets, hundreds of specialty shops, and all the beer and brats you could eat. Each year during the months of September and October, Helen hosts the longest running Oktoberfest in the United States. In honor of Oktoberfest we’re making our favorite German recipes: Wienerschnitzel, Spaetzle, and Sweet and Sour Red Cabbage.

Spaghetti & Meatballs on a Stick {Fabulous Fair Food}
The Country Fair has been in full twirling whirling mode for the past 10 days. Every day on my drive to work I’m amazed at how it has transformed the space the Farmers’ Market occupied all summer long. Each morning at the office I can overhear recaps from those who attended ‘the fair’ the evening prior.

Mushroom Bacon Swiss Burgers
Is there anything better than a good burger? Okay yes… there are some things, but on the rare occasion that we actually make beef burgers (vs. turkey or salmon) they are such a huge treat. Whether you lay them on a bed of greens or perched on a toasted onion roll they are amazing. Top them with a slice of nutty pungent Swiss cheese, sautéed mushrooms, and a couple of strips of crispy bacon…. Mushroom Bacon Swiss Burgers = WINNING!!

North African Lamb Kebabs {with Cilantro Mint Pesto}
North African Lamb Kebabs sounded so intriguing to me. Traditionally we think of kebobs made up of ‘hunks’ of meat and/or vegetables. These kebobs are made with ground lamb that’s blended with heavenly herbs and spices. I came across a recipe in one of my cooking magazines and the ingredients list was right up our alley (and mostly on hand): cumin, coriander, paprika, fresh cilantro, mint, oregano, ginger, garlic…..can’t you just smell it.

Roast Beef & Horseradish Cheddar Deli-style Sandwich
I know some people dread grocery shopping, but for me…..I’m just a kid in a candy shop. And out of necessity early Sunday morning, I discovered that to be the very best time to shop. There were parking spaces and shopping carts, wide open isles and fully stocked shelves, and oh the bakery. Everything was still warm…doesn’t that say it all.
