• I’ve added a casual chat room to CookingBites as a place for off-topic banter, light conversation, and short-lived chit-chat that doesn’t belong in forum threads. The chat room is informal and lightly-to-not moderated, with messages being temporary, so it’s ideal for friendly back-and-forth that would otherwise derail discussions. Site rules still apply, but there’s no reporting system or expectation of post-by-post moderation - if something becomes uncomfortable, the right response is to step away. If a topic has substance or lasting value, it still belongs in the forums; everything else can head to chat.

A big thank you to all those who participated in the Dish of he Month (August). We had 10 entries from 7 members in total.

Forgive me if I missed anything - not everyone had tagged their recipes correctly. This isn't a competition, but the two recipes I personally liked best were: @TastyReuben's Antipasto Pasta Salad (so colourful and joyous looking). Great food photography too - and @Mountain Cat's Shrimp Shirataki Pasta Salad w/ Thai Peanut Sauce (a very pretty dish with great flavour combinations and low in calories too).
