There are all kinds of those new green "nonstick" pans out. Bed Bath & Beyond has the Cuisinart ones, Todd English has a line on HSN or QVC...look around! They're not cheap, but - they will suppo...
Be careful of who you buy from. My coworker was telling me of "boosters" in places like NYC. Organized crime, of sorts, where people go into a grocery or bodega and steal a food into a cart and t...
I'm so glad that apple season is here again. I haven't had apples in a few months. NYS apples (local for me) taste so much better than the ones from Chile, but they often don't have supplies to k...
I don't understand the desire to put pots and pans in the dishwasher? It seems like such a waste of water and electricity, since they take up so much room. I cram that thing as full as I possibly...

Pretty much the things that say "not dishwasher safe" don't go in the dishwasher.
Wood anything.

I boil my water in the microwave. Pyrex measuring cup. 5 minutes or until you see it boiling. If you don't see it boiling, after 5 minutes, make sure to stick a spoon in it before you touch it.

PS - if you bought all those things online, you'd probably spend another $50 in shipping, unless you're able to find them locally for the same price! (BBB one thing, Bowery Kitchen Supply in NYC a...

I was going to guess Paw Paws, but I think they're actually more of a "0" shape...
Ooops...I meant 1/6. It's much easier to cut the ingredients by 6 than by 8.

Now I need an excuse to make cake... I wonder if Ghirardelli's cocoa powder will give me that dark color or t...

Okay, I'm drooling over that cake - and it doesn't look like the cake here. Recipe please? Pretty please...
I don't care how many crumbs get into that cake - it looks delicious!
