I have a balcony garden going that I've worked hard on and have been learning from trial and error. I started from seeds. The other day I discovered that I have baby roma tomatoes growing and the e...

It looks like Tinda

Word to the wise, roasting them increases the spicy factor. Not that I mind the heat, but I wasn't prepared for that and really over did it on a jalapeno corn chowder recipe a friend gave me. Basic...

Old Bay now makes a crab boil packet you just toss in the water. I find Zatarains in general to be too salty and tastes too processed so I'm afraid of their seasoning. Then again, I'm a Maryland gi...

I'm not saying it's a dead ringer, but Ikea makes a decent look-alike that is 69 cents a glass. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/...

OKay I looked at the rest of the pictures and I retract the stove top comment. I also see how it's works and yeah, let's jsut ignore the majority of my last comment, kay? thanks!

Doesn't it kind of defeat the purpose of creating a small and useful space if you have to store the appliances elsewhere? Her hydrolic lifts and the fridge being in another room makes this nothing ...

I see I'm not the only one who saw the Good Eats episode where Alton Brown proved this one. My mom always rinsed her mushrooms for the very simple reason that they grow in dung and dirt and they ar...

I'm trying to see how it's not green to recycle something disposable into something totally usable that is also appealing to the eye. Is there something I'm missing? Even though I don...

Oh I do like that towel idea. What about using that space to hang herbs or flowers for drying? A place to hang utensils?

The cuteness is overwhelming!

I'll take cornbread of any style: savory, sweet, cakey, dry, full of veggies and herbs, cheese, from the skillet... all of it. There's a kind of cornbread for any meal.

birdie_dc: Wegman's? They seem to have everything. Whole Foods? Maybe World Market in their little food section? I'm suddenly intrigued and want to try them and I live near you in Northern Virginia.

For the calorie and fat counter folks, they don't care about good fats versus bad fats. They only see the word "fat" and freak out. I enjoy pesto, but sometimes it feels too rich for me so this lig...

All I could say to that was "What in the f*** just happened?" I was so angry. Lisa is a consistantly poor chef and has been on the loser circle far too many times, but Antonia can't cook pease and ...

I've managed to have a fairly successful balcony container garden. If I ever own land of any size, there will be a garden there. If I can grow seeds into veggies in a pot on a balcony, then I can e...

I'm attempting to ween myself off the papertowels. The Male uses them like they are going out of style and he wants to stop too, but I have such a hard time finding towels that are really absorbant...

My mom does this mixture of red wine vinegar and mayo and something else along with some seasonings, namely celery seeds. It actually looks a lot like the one pictured on the left. She adds thin sl...

I have a container garden growing on the balcony of my apartment that has had some great success. I've got basil, garlic chives, flat leaf parsley, Roma tomatoes, jalapenos, and sugar snap peas. Al...

#1 - Luca #2 - Tony and Hilary #3 - SS Waverly #4 - Family of Four (only because I don't think it's going to work when the kids get older) Too bad we can't vote more ...
