I clearly remember the day that my mother sent me to school with warm, buttered sourdough crumpets in tinfoil and eating them secretly during my first class. Heaven!

Immersion blender for sure. I received a Bamix as a gift a few years ago and I have no complaints!

I would love love love THIS. But I'm an ineligible Canadian...

Lots of great seasoning tips here, thanks! The one method variation I didn't see was one my brother in law taught me. Instead of transferring the drippings to another pot, remove the t...

Wonderful interview, I especially like the shelves! Oneformybaby- I took a long time figuring out spice jars that fit my needs. I finally decided a few months ago to use 250 ml ...

I just copied and pasted that from an email she sent me, and it looks like she forgot to include the ginger, which should be about 1/2 a tbsp grated.

Mmmm! Our local dairy producer makes grapefruit sherbert, which is divine.. One serving idea I've heard, which would probably work with ice cream too: scoop ice cream in to half a grape...
