In the better late than never category, we finally made it downtown to Schilos today for German food. I had the “Taste of #Germany” with bratwurst, schweinsnitzel, German potato salad, red cabbage, and sauerkraut. #foodandlit @Catsandbooks
#FoodandLit now has a running book list for 2023!
If you need help finding books for a country or want to share books you've found, this list is a resource.
Anyone can add books to the list!

In elementary school, I had a friend whose parents were political emigres from Communist Cuba. I fondly remember the music, the stories, and the food from this special family. I never eat bananas, but I ate Ms. Rodriguez's fried plantains so that is what I fixed for #Cuba #FoodandLit @texreader @Catsandbooks
I am always running behind with my #foodandlit meals. I‘m finally across town and able to get the best Greek food here. I‘m awaiting our gyros but as you can see I cannot pass up baklava. #Greece
Came from Argentina. Delicious 😋. #FoodandLit @Catsandbooks @Texreader
While I‘m getting some R&R from my surgery yesterday I‘m working on adding recipes to our #foodandlit Pinterest board for the rest of the year. Here are just some of the remaining countries. Looking good!! 😋

According to the history I read about #Argentina, it has a large diaspora of Italians. So check out this recipe! #foodandlit

I forgot to take a photo of my carne guisada empanadas I had for breakfast yesterday. I just tucked right in and ate every last crumb. This is a good month for #foodandlit #Argentina! Here‘s where to find an empanada recipe:

I used ingredients common to Egyptian meals but I‘m not sure how authentic my meal was for #Egypt #foodandlit. Lamb chops in a red wine reduction, 2 kinds of rice (brown and jasmine), falafel, and a salad. @Butterfinger @Catsandbooks

Grocery haul from the Filipino market. #foodandlit #Philippines @Catsandbooks @Butterfinger
Daughter and I tried the Filipino restaurant and market today. We got lechon kawali, lumpia, butsi, and a pandan Sago (the drink). I‘ll take a photo of the groceries we bought separately. #foodandlit #Philippines @Catsandbooks @Butterfinger
Thought it was a good time to reshare for 2022 #FoodandLit. I finally got someone to join Litsy, my sister, @ShilohIrons1982
Miss, you just read a book set in the nation (it can be a children's book for P and T) and eat something from the nation.
@Texreader @Catsandbooks
