Ah, I was coming here with the same question. Is there anything wrong with putting them in the fridge? We leave ours out on the counter and they also sprout quickly.
I think it's sti...
Oh no, Sara Kate! I'm very sorry for your loss, but I can't help laughing at the image of your poor impaled iPod.
Please, please, take it to the Genius Bar, knife and all, and tell u...
Personally, I would get tired of being in the same room all the time -- I'd rather share a slightly larger space with another person than live in a tiny box by myself. But could this work? Absolut...
If you don't need that many new rags/dishtowels, check with local environmental organizations about textile recycling. In NYC, you can drop off textiles for recycling (including old clothes, shoes...
We've changed most things - toothpaste, shampoo/conditioner, lotion - but not deodorant yet. I love Tom's toothpaste, but their deodorant just doesn't work. My boyfriend at least didn't have a te...
Oops, I missed that the original questioner has already responded and clarified that he's looking for raw vegetable suggestions. In that case, I suggest our favorite "shepherd's salad": just chunk...
My first answer to this question is to not smother the vegetables with cheese, mayonnaise, cream, butter, or other unhealthy sauces, and don't deep-fry them. This just defeats the point of eatin...
WF is expensive, no doubt about it. I wouldn't do regular grocery shopping there. But even if there aren't bargains , per se, there are some good values if you're really comparing ap...
Oh, that looks amazing! We have some zucchini left from the last two CSA weeks, and I will definitely be trying this. I would have never thought to make a sweet dish.
I thought that burning colored ink in a fireplace was dangerous because of the fumes. Is that not true? Maybe it's only glossy magazines that you shouldn't burn? Maybe the relative who told me t...
Mediterranean salad with big chunks of tomato, cucumber and feta cheese, tossed with some chopped red onion, olive oil, and herbs.
And lots of tomato sauce.
And oven-dried...
People have a problem with recycled toilet paper? It's not like it's used toilet paper ...
Marcal makes recycled toilet paper. It comes in big packages, and it's soft! I can't remem...
We eat at home almost every night, but I don't know if we could really claim to COOK every night. It depends on whether you count things like leftovers, salad, and haphazard assemblages of whateve...
So, funny story. When I was visiting my parents a few weeks ago (in Connecticut), my mom came home from the farmer's market with a bunch of purslane -- she was so excited to try this new exotic tre...
BIG is so much fun! Also, unbelievably messy. They have no real inventory or pricing system (or didn't seem to when I visited), so if you're going with something specific in mind, prepare to spen...
How beautiful!
In NYC, the brand-new Tribeca Whole Foods has lots of artisanal salts and sugars in the bulk section. They look amazing. They're pricey, but I can't imagine you'd ne...
Ours (Sunnyside, Queens) starts tomorrow! We're getting radishes, two kinds of arugula, Boston lettuce, spinach, and possibly rhubarb. This is the second year we're doing the CSA, and I am SO EXC...

Ohhh. I might have to buy an ice cream maker just to make this.

IceStone (similar to Vetrazzo) is another gorgeous option. It's made in Brooklyn, NY and is Cradle-to-Cradle certified.

the chuck, yes, rosemary! Like the flavor, hate the sharp little sticks.
