Thanks for the info! Good-bye boring sandwich bread!

help please! the link doesn't work!

I've been making Martha's Champagne punch for years - the original recipe serves 2, but it's easily multiplied. 3 T grenadine, 3 T Cointreau, 2 T brandy, 1 3/4 cup Champagne, raspberri...

wow! gorgeous!

This book sounds wonderful and I've already read numerous glowing reviews of it. I'd love to buy it for myself, but I'm unemployed - funny enough (not really), in the food field.

I don't own a crock pot, but have wanted one for years - please pick me! I think my first meal would be pulled pork...yum!

I've been wanting this chair for years - and love the red most of all! Please pick me!

Nice long neighborhood walk (after the rain finally stopped) and then last night rode our bikes to see the city fireworks!

I think this would only work if you have a straight, flat edge on your original countertop. Our formica has a curved edge with a bit of a lip to keep spills contained.

We don't have space to eat in our tiny kitchen, so we eat most meals at the dining room table. I would love a more intimate kitchen nook in our next house (there's just the 2 of us), but I hope th...

I've made naan at home (using my pizza stone) and have been very pleased with the results. However, a friend recently told me about the frozen naan sold at Trader Joe's (plain and garlic flavors) ...

White Flower Farm is an amazing east coast source (they're located in CT) for all sorts of plants, including succulents. http://www.white...

I like them all! :)

Another place to buy (at least in the midwest) is Gordon Food Service. (www.gfs.com) They have all sorts of affordable kitchen supplies, in addition to the giant cans of beans. As f...

I'm a culinary school grad and the iodine issue was never mentioned. I'm very sensitive to the metallic taste of too much baking powder in a baked good, but I've never detected the presence of iod...

Regarding the fine granulated (aka table) salt, why do you recommend avoiding the iodine? I was under the impression that salt was iodinized for a (good?) reason.

I cut and paste all online recipes (thankfully the majority of Gourmet and Bon Appetit are available on epicurious.com and I use Cooks Illust online, too) into a recipe program called Mastercook. ...
