Storage is key for me. We currently have the cabinets full, a bar in the living room full, stuff on top of the cabinets, all our good dishes are on top of the fridge and in the basement a huge she...
Due to the blue laws in MN, many bars and restaurants do not have liquor liscenses, only beer and wine (or maybe this is common?). So things like this are sort of common. Also, bloody marys made ...
Aaah, wine in a grocery store. Someday Minnesota will allow that, I hope.
Though it is kind of nice that alcohol cannot be sold in any establishment except a liquor store, bar, or res...
We are going camping tonight. Our menu:
Dinner: Hot dogs (my husbands fav) and roasted corn
Breakfast: Cereal with soy milk
Lunch: Roast beef and cheddar sandwic...
I have been known for my bean salad: three kinds of canned beans, cilantro, onion, tomato, olive oil and vinegar.
But, this weekend I tried something new, and it was a huge hit. It wa...
Meatless Monday. We go meatless every Monday and my husband only complains about half the time. I'm finding that as long as the food is hardy, he doesn't complain. When it is just a salad or len...
We are Pimms freaks. People come to our house in the summer expecting pimms, which can get quite expensive. We haven't had our first one of the season yet, but this weekend will probably be the one.
Here's a question for all the urban gardners out there:
I know how to get my soil tested to find out if there are enough nutrients and its Ph level, but how do I find out if it is safe for pl...
My husband has been on an egg white in drinks kick. Instead of seperating out the egg whites, he has been using Egg Beaters Egg Whites. They seem to work really well for him and they are pasturized.
Can I just cry out "NOT FAIR!!!."
It may snow here this weekend. I'm not planting anything for another 3 weeks. Can we make June "Garden Month at the Kitchen for those in the North"?

This morning I had dry Life cereal out of a sandwich baggie and a warm diet Mountain Dew as I drove to work. Breakfast of champions I tell ya.

I love strawberry rhubarb.
Martha- how did you get to be so rad?
Most frequently would be my knife and my cutting board. I wish I used my mandoline more, but I often forget until it is too late.
Broiling- my broiler sucks Temps over 450- fire alarms go off pretty much any baking- I suck candy thermometer- just too finicky.

In Minnesota it is Asparagus and Rhubarb for May. In June, Raspberries are added to that list. Why don't I live somewhere warmer?
