Candied bacon is my reward for shoveling every two hours or so. Tomorrow it's going to be potato & ham soup and breadsticks from scratch. Oh, and then more shoveling.
My mother grew up in post-war Germany. Translation: poor and hungry. I was brought up in the clean plate club as a way of appreciating food. By making us eat everything we put on the plate, Mom tau...
I made the dal palak recipe that appeared here a while ago. It was my first foray into Indian food. I also make spaghetti squash for the first time. Amazing!
I always have trouble with getting the lines straight. Take a really fine brush and a straight edge and do it by hand. It takes a bit of time but you get a better line. Retaping will probably get y...
I grew up with a TV in my bedroom and I thought I'd hate not having it. When I got my first place I put it in the living room and I really like it that way. I spend less time watching TV and oversl...
I agree with the "sell it" people. Even if the staining goes well (which you don't sound particularly confident about), it's not going to be what you want. You may be satisfied with the improvement...
I spent four days in Philly in November, and I fell in love with that place. I ate all three meals there each day, and came home with a trunk full of goodies. I'd probably drive the hour it takes m...
I just finished trying them. Verdict: Amazing! I think this is my new favorite way to eat eggs. I did cheat a little, though. I sliced the potatoes in half, raw, and scooped them out before baking ...
Maybe it's my old-school European upbringing, but that's my general philosophy. I grew up understanding that you don't get everything you want at once. Creating a home, just like creating a life, i...
I've made so many of my Grandmother's German sugar cookies that I don't think I'll be able to think about a batch of dough for the next 6 months. They're always a hit, though, so I made a few hundr...
As a frequent hostess and near vegetarian (I eat meat about once a week), I cook with my vegetarian friends in mind. I still cook with meat, but if I know a vegetarian is coming, I'll make sure I h...
I grew up at 123 W. Inca St. Whenever people asked me for my address and I started with 123, they never believed me. I had to show a cop my license once when I was filling out an accident report. T...
I had the pleasure of being raised by a hunter and a professional butcher, so I frequently end up skinning and butchering my own deer. Incidentally, ours are killed with a bow, not a gun, which req...
I like wigglebutt's idea (and name-tee hee). I also think a collection of small prints or B&W photos would look nice. Try mismatched frames all painted the same color.
I worked in a grocery store through high school and college, and a customer once returned a bag of salad because it had a grasshopper in it. I tried to tell her it was full of protein, but she wasn...

Hilarious. I want one.

About two and a half pounds. :-)

Ditto for the mashed 'taters. I'd rather make room for that than a potato masher.

Yes. Yes it would.
