Every week I look forward to Dana Velden’s Weekend Meditation here at The Kitchn. Her small essays always prompt me towards thoughtfulness and gratitude, and peel back new layers of thinking about the kitchen, the home, and living in the world. Dana has this weekend off, but we didn’t want to leave you without a dose of meditation. Here is a look back at 10 of our favorite meditations from Dana, all with an eye towards spring and new beginnings. Enjoy!

“Roast asparagus with Cajun seasoning makes a yummy side dish in only 15 minutes.”
Happy weekend, kitchen friends! What’s cooking? I’m home after a long week of travel and looking forward to making brunch and perhaps a pot of leek soup to go with our blustery April weather. What about you? What’s in your grocery basket, and what’s in your fridge? What’s cooking in your kitchen this weekend?

Who’s feeling ready to throw a dinner party? I know I am after this past week, if only as an excuse to make these tasty-looking Herbed Polenta Bites. We also had a tutorial on how to make the softest dinner rolls, a cauliflower pasta dish with tomato-cream sauce, miso sweet potato bites, a tomato and goat cheese quiche, and a springtime orange-y margarita — all party-worthy dishes if I ever saw them!
