Afraid of muhammara? No need. Why not start with a half recipe, just in case--but really, this has nothing in common with horror movies! Andrea, I guess it DID taste pretty rich! I've seen snippets of Invasion of the Body Snatchers when the HH was watching (both old and new) and had to leave the room. I also remember being totally freaked out by Jaws (which would probably look like a rubber shark by today's special-effects standards!) Sally, I think I feel the same way, now that I've tasted it! Tinker, Thanks so much for the tag! I will definitely try to do this one. . . glad you don't mind if it takes a little while :) Giz, I know how you feel. Still creeps me out! Ashley, I'd guess this is the perfect way to use that molasses! destinyskitchen,

Andrea,

Giz,
I know how you feel. Still creeps me out!

Ashley,

And I've never had this dip though I'm always looking for new and healthy dips. Anyway, your dip looks delicious and I should try it. =) I have a bottle of pomegranate molasses I bought at least a year ago because I was so excited to finally find it… but I haven’t used it yet!

I’ve never had muhummara before – it reminds me of hummus, so I’ll have to try it one day since I love hummus!

I’ve tagged you with a meme – hopefully you’ll have time to take a look.

And if you DO decide to watch Invasion of the Body Snatchers, opt for the original. But think twice - you know you can't see or hear what's happening in that dark basement... I also resist scary movies, especially the gross ones. Even Jaws did me in, and I knew within the first two minutes of the film that I'd made a terrible mistake!

Your muhammara looks fab. I've been afraid to make it, in case I didn't like, since I feel horrible about wasting food. I used to love scary movies, but have turned into such a sensitive baby!

Horror movies, not so much. Lizzie, Yes, this would be a great alternative to hummus! I love hummus, but do sometimes feel like a change. veganhomemade, Just reading your sentence about "sloth" and "bed" and "horrifying" sent chills down my spine!! Cheryl, It's true, a good dip does tend to make many things better :) Jennifer, It was my first try too, and I just loved it immediately! Worth a try. bee, How lucky to get the paste! Though I think my homemade syrup turned out pretty good--and fairly easy to do, too. aTxVegn, I'm so with you!! shellyfish, See? The name just brings to mind other words! I've never heard of that song, though--and I'm a fan of the 70s. Hmmn!! And I have no desire to watch Psycho--I'm sure I'd have the same reaction as you. Courtney, Have no fear! It's actually not very sweet; the pom just adds a bit of tang to the mix, I think. Though red peppers are a bit sweet on their own, anyway. CCV, Awww, thanks! And moi aussi--tres grande scaredy-pup! Johanna, For some reason, books haven't scared me yet (thankfully!). I love your take on the muhammara--will try it with the veggies next time! Sunshinemom, Thanks so much! Looking forward to the roundup as well. :) Robin, Glad to hear about Shaun of the Dead (it was included in a list of top horror flicks, so I just assumed). May actually give it a try, then. Holler, Sounds like we are one of a kind. Sorry to spoil your evening! Have some muhammara to make it better. . . ;) VeggieGirl,

I appreciated the recipe. But, now I have had to put on the lights and don't think I will be sleeping much because of night terrors. I wish I had read this post this morning when it was bright and sunny and NOT before going to bed. Ahhhhhhhhhh :0 Ok, so I enjoy reading your posts and dipping into your life.
