Fresh Zaatar Focaccia

Fresh Zaatar Focaccia

I’ve been dying to get my hands on some fresh zaatar to make Fresh Zaatar Focaccia. Unfortunately, fresh zaatar is hard to find around DC. Really hard to find. I, however, am a very determined woman. When I want something, I find a way to get it. That’s probably why I’ve been told it’s so hard to find gifts for my birthday. I usually get what I want before anyone knows I’ve been pining over it. Shopping and food cravings alike, I am determined to get what I want. This time, I wanted fresh Zaatar Focaccia. (more…)

In usual DC fashion, federal offices were open on time, but the roads were practically undriveable (yes I just made that word up). Of course, I had a meeting downtown bright and early. I decided to take the metro, since getting into the city even without snow is what nightmares are made of. Well, I made it all the way in, and had just gotten off at the closest metro stop (which still had me walking about 15 minutes to the meeting) when I got a text letting me know the meeting was changed to call-in only. Convenient. So what did I do? I put myself back on the metro but instead of heading home, I went to the metro nearest my office. Snow in the burbs was the worst. Just imagine slushy snowcone roads. God bless the genius behind uber! (more…)
