You can find these in fine shops in Seattle as well. The first place I ever had Nanaimo bars. Now I make them each Christmas season as a little gift for my coworkers. By the way, I t...

As a single guy with no nearby relatives I usually make the traditional Thanksgiving for myself. I stick to a turkey breast, usually in the 5 - 8 lbs range. The sides are simple enough to proport...

Southern style grits! Cooked until they're thick and creamy, then serve them with butter, salt, pepper and topped with a fried egg. It's totally comfort food for me.

We never had marshmallow casserole growing up but my parents made something much, much worse-- candied yams. Sweet potatoes, cooked and sliced then layered in a pan with butter, sugar, brown sugar...

Um, if the dialog for this were spot on, why did they have American accents? Roald Dahl certainly wasn't...

That seems like a lot of money for a 12v inverter, although I suppose the cup design is part of the reason. Check your local Cabela's or Sportsman's Warehouse. Something like $15 should be about ...

The beauty of this is that you only pay for what you want. With cable you pay for a package of channels, many of which you may never watch. However, a flat fee that allows me to download just the...

I've lived alone for most of my adult life (I'm 45 now) and frankly I'm not sure I know how to live any other way anymore. Listen to the many people who are suggesting that you invit...

I run mine through the dishwasher.

A shower that only Dr. Octopus could love... Not doing it for me.

Uh... are you sure the "SMEG" fridge isn't some sort of homage to "Red Dwarf"? Especially in the Union flag colors.

This is the worst place in the kitchen to have a TV. It's sure to get coated in grease and look terrible after you try to clean the grease off. Except for those areas that you can't clean (air ve...

Perhaps it's a downdraft cooktop? I had one in my old house, and it worked wonderfully.

Cavatappi and farfalle, by far.

My local Costco carries quinoa. Even there it isn't cheap, but it's much better than the price at Whole Foods.

Oddly enough, the one that's least similar is Australia. Although the pastie is the perfect choice of food.

Hmm... I wonder if this was also the Mac used in "Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home"? If so, James Doohan (Scotty) personally spoke into its mouse! Now how much would you pay?

Nice for people who use Windows. Wake me when they've run this comparison on other OS's.

Not to mention the relatively short lifespan (currently) for OLED devices. No way would I pay $5K for a device that will only last 5 years or so.

I wouldn't think exposing most spices to light and heat would do much for their shelf life...
