I love the self-irrigated planters. They make my job so much easier, and provide a good constant source of irrigation for my plants. My mint and basil are already exploding out of their boxes.

Spinach, arugula, lettuce, quinoa greens, amaranthus greens, nasturtiums, swiss chard, 8 different kinds of tomatoes, zucchini, cucumbers, butternut squash, chocolate mint, 3 kinds of basil and lem...

I just made dandelion jelly this past week http://freedom.theswartfamily.com/2008/05/dandelion-jelly/ It...

Home grown sunflower sprouts. I buy a large bag of bird food seed and throw them in a pot of dirt. I have enough to clip about every other day to eat with my bento lunch or toss on a salad.

I can't wait either!!

I follow the wintersowing method seen here: http://www.wintersown.org/ It's the same idea as the plastic wrap (of creating a moist environment ...

I think this is kind of unappealing because of the fact that snow is first formed high up in the atmosphere around small nuclei of sand, dirt and other crap that may or may not come from questionab...

Cakekick, I do a double take very time when they show the name of his restaurant :) I was also disappointed by the quickfire challenge and their lack of creativity. I was hoping they w...

I am young and don't drink, and I have fun at sober and drunken functions. Frankly, some of the functions could have allowed for some people to drink, and others could have reigned in the alcohol a...

I'm imagining boxes being chewed open by various rodents. Or opening the boxes up to find various other critters inside...

Eat the view (http://www.eattheview.org/) is hoping to replant a large organic urban "victory garden" back onto the White House Lawn, harking back to previous presidents such as Thomas Jefferson an...

I love blackstrap molasses, but only when stirred into a cup of hot water or milk. I find that it kind of overpowers anything else I put it in.

I'm thankful with my diet restrictions for alternatives to a lot of foods. Rice flour instead of wheat flour for example, makes my life not so miserable.

Instead of red wax on the stems, apples (and other fruits, vegetables) are sprayed with a wax barrier to keep them from spoiling - this gives them that unnatural shine as well.

I personally can't stand Fabio when he talks. 'In Italy blah blah. Since I'm Italian blah blah.' When he will be forced outside his Italian specialization, I can see him flopping. The spheri...

Teeth actually abrade pretty easily. Baking soda is actually a lot more abrasive than most of the polishing substances we use in dentistry. Most people use too much pressure when they brush anyway ...

I also can't do it. I get downright nasty if I don't eat for more than 12 hours. Maybe it's a psychological thing, but I will get angry at the stupidest little things, or be aggravated by nonsensic...

I wouldn't say that I am allergic (there's no Type I or IV hypersensitivity going on) but I am intolerant or sensitive to dairy, wheat (and gluten) corn, peanuts and certain types of soy. I used to...

Bowerbirds are awesome, although I think they must have stuck with feathers, flowers, and turqouise before the advent of humans.

I live on around $25 a week, and I tend to think I eat pretty well. Fresh and frozen veggies, eggs, root veggies, bulk brown rice, frozen and canned seafood, chicken, dry and canned legumes. ...
