video voyagism: jerusalem in 60 seconds

This is a fast, no a super fast, video of Jerusalem. Not sure if I caught all the historical intricacies of the holy sites, but I did catch all the beautiful shots of Jerusalem. Enjoy!

wanderlust wednesday: jerusalem

1/ 2/ 3/ 4

Visiting Jerusalem is at the top of my list. I've never been anywhere so full of culture and history. I think these photos speak for themselves about how intensely interesting it would be to visit Jerusalem. My wanderlust is officially stirred!

Have you ever been to Jerusalem?!

jerusalem: a cookbook

I constantly browse 101 cookbooks, by Heidi Swanson. Her recipes are always fresh with a nod to global influences. And this morning while browsing for recipes, I stumbled upon a post she did about the cookbook Jerusalem. I've seen this cookbook before and never picked it up because I had no clue what Jerusalem-eque food is about. But, i'm heading out the door to buy it now, because Heidi posted a delicious looking Fattoush recipe that has my mouth watering.
 
Fattoush is basically the best kind of  salad because it incorporates a lot of naan or pita. The recipe is a bit more involved than most salads, but it looks absolutely worth it. You can find the recipe here.

  Nothing is better than a cookbook with a lot of beautiful photos.
