• 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.

The CookingBites Recipe Challenge: Cranberries

Ok, I've decided on one standout recipe. How I got there:

First, I read through all the recipes and visualized making them, asking myself if I'd want to make this or that, actually thinking of the cooking process itself. I think since we all have different tastes, I chose that perspective versus one where I'd ask myself whether I'd want to eat/drink something.

So after doing that, I landed on either the clementine and cranberry sponge from morning glory, the cranberry freeze from The Late Night Gourmet, or the chicken roulade from murphyscreek.

After much thought, I've decided that the recipe that interested me the most is... murphyscreek's Chicken Roulade! I think anyone would be tickled to sit down to a festive holiday meal of that as the main course. Beautifully photographed as well.

Thanks much to everyone who participated. I love how everyone enthusiastically jumped right in, and I was very pleased to see some cocktails make an appearance as well.

Truly, well done to everyone!

Wow, thanks for that TastyReuben... there were some really good recipes this month as The Late Night Gourmet has said (including his awesome recipes), so is a real honour to be chosen.
