It depends where the carrots are destined to go. If they are getting sliced for crudites they usually don't get peeled as there will only be skin on 1/4 and people can suck it up. Likewise if they ...
We have horrible cream-colored vinyl with a sort of light brown pattern on it. I try and sweep regularly and mop with a sponge mop and Pine-Sol when it gets funky. I'd get something nice and organi...
searchgirl, right on! I am saving up to attack my kitchen... guests say "it's so cute and retro" and then I ask them if they cook and they ALL say no. It's a ridiculous layout and the storage is st...
Sigh. I rarely say this, but right now I wish I lived in NY so I could snag that awesome credenza thing. The Reno Craigslist would explode if something this rad ever made it on there. Double sigh.
Electric kettle, blender and toaster oven live out and easily accessible. Everything else isn't used enough to deserve the counter space (also we have decent amounts of storage).
I agonized over our registry, my husband had only ever had guys living in his spare room so the house was a disaster area and there were about five mismatched plates and two mugs (oddly enough, a l...
I've seen them growing wild in Oregon as well as some parts of the Sierras. My brother-in-law has them in his garden in Reno, but I don't know if he harvests them yet. Beautiful plants, too.
I just got back from the Farmer's Market and I am currently making mushroom soup (from your recipe) for lunch. Dinner will be fish tacos with halibut from the FM on garlic butter tortillas from the...
Buda, a toaster oven is not necessarily the same as a toaster - mine is shaped like a tiny oven and has both toast and bake settings, I find it great for things like roasting asparagus but kind of ...
I think chilling the dough makes a big difference, the butter seems to hold the cookie together better when it is cold - when I skip the chilling step my cookies generally turn out much flatter. I ...
I remember these - we didn't have central heating when I was a kid, just one big vent in the middle of the living room. There are a lot of pictures of me and all my sisters standing in a row over i...
Any hobby is expensive when you first start, but you're not going to have to rebuild the whole thing every year! Don't judge by the first year's yield, keep trying!
Thanks so much for all the help, it looks like I've got plenty of options! The allergist specified tree nuts, as well as peanuts, soy and peas (I thought that was interesting). I do carry an Epi-pe...
I have an antique one I inherited from my father, I am scared of it but he uses it whenever he is here and we do a big roast of any kind. I swear he gets so much more meat off of a turkey than I ca...
We never buy beef and very rarely pork (bacon is the exception, and usually only if we are having somebody over for brunch). We do eat a lot of poultry, and I am trying to eat less of it but it is ...
I cook a lot and have a decent amount of counter space so the stuff that gets used most gets to live on the counter: big wood cutting board gets left out, as does the electric kettle and the big te...

Oh not in Nevada, if it's from somewhere humid enough the bridge can actually pull off completely. Keep it in its case and humidified!

How funny I was just inviting people over so I could make crepes this weekend and this popped up! We must be on the same wavelength...

I thought the reason that high-heat cooking with olive oil wasn't recommended because it smokes - wouldn't this lamp just smoke like crazy?

Wha? That looks like a fruiting lemon tree, not one in full bloom! Still, gorgeous color!
