10 Things You Loved in March — The Kitchn’s Best of 2013
What did you want to cook, eat, and read about through the months of 2013? We always find it instructive and entertaining to look back over the past year and see what you loved.
In March you loved fresh breakfast ideas with whole grains, and ideas for packing your lunch in a jar. You loved this bright, happy Chicago kitchen, the best kitchen products from IKEA, and Anjali’s “uncool” kitchen tool (remember what it is?).
gingerbread snacking cake
I have a few things to tell you about this cake today, and none of them at the outset sound terribly upbeat, but bear with me, cheer is nigh.
The first is that if you put this out in small squares, dusted with powdered sugar and in proximity to a hand-whisked bowl of lightly sweetened schlag at a packed tree-trimming party, one by one, the handsome revelers will fall upon them, take a big delighted bite, and then you might out of the corner of your eye note that cheer melting from faces into a brief pang of surprise as they realize that no, that was not a brownie, but an extremely dark and intense square of gingerbread cake. Oopsies?
The second is that yes, I know, I already have a gingerbread cake recipe on this site — what I still consider the Greatest Gingerbread of Them All — and that is still the one I make for every Christmas dinner I’m invited to. However, if there could be one bad thing about it, it would be that on a rare occasion, usually because it sat in the pan longer than it was supposed to or the baking winds were not in our favor that day, it does not like to come out of the bundt pan in one piece. Sometimes it comes out in several. Sometimes it leaves half the cake in the pan. Sometimes you’re trying to get it out of the pan a single hour before you have to be at a Christmas Eve dinner an hour twenty minutes away and you… you cry.

How We Celebrate Christmas in Lebanon — Christmas Around the World
As one of the most celebrated holidays of the year, Christmas in Lebanon is a very special time. Especially so as it’s common to witness religious and political divisions set aside whilst everyone embraces the Christmas spirit. Though Lebanon is home to a population of 18 different sects (with more than 30% Christian) and a turbulent history stemming from these religious differences, it’s a wonderful thing to see the Christmas spirit alive and well in homes across the country, no matter the family’s religious background.
