I immediately thought of the blog Jaws Wired Shut , which was written by a girl who had her jaw wired shut (obviously), and had to be on a liquid diet ...
If you temper your (pure, preferably high-cocoa-percentage) chocolate properly, it should set up smooth, glossy, with a good snap and won't melt immediately when you touch it. It can be kind of tri...
In re: VioletVeil, I've had my Wolfgang Puck stainless huge saute pan for 5 years now, and it's been nothing but awesome. I haven't had any issues with corroding. I didn't get a set, but only a sin...
If you drop your MacBook and break the screen (or other things), Apple has a flat, fix everything fee of $1200. Even if all you need is a screen, which shouldn't be that much, it's $1200.
People look at me funny when I do this, but I've been doing it for years. It's funny to see it come up on the Kitchn! It's a favorite of mine in the morning when I need a little caffeine (I almost ...
I find that letting my pot soak with just warm water in the sink works beautifully for getting caramel off the sides. My boyfriend didn't believe me, but if you let it soak for a good long while, i...
We don't keep a lot of random food around the house, so there's not a lot of "hmm, what can I make with this?" that goes on. I have a bookmark folder full of recipes and a bunch of cookbooks, and I...
I'm like BrooklynBaker... I go to the grocery to pick up what I need for meals before I make them, but a lot of times I already have ingredients at home, so you get a big mishmash. Also, my boyfrie...
I'm pretty sure you can get small, non-commercial snow cone makers that work fine. I had a small snow cone maker as a kid, and it worked great. I don't remember anything about the brand, but it was...
I don't like mushrooms, but I'm totally cool with that. A lot of times I'll eat them mixed into a sauce if I don't think about it, but I don't really feel like I'm missing anything by not liking th...
Um, what? You're comparing nonnative exotic snakes like boas and pythons that have escaped or been released, which, as d4kk1tt3 mentions, are not likely to be a threat to humans, and NATIVE snakes ...
The Benaki Museum is an often overlooked museum in a neat old mansion in downtown Athens, and it has a ton of cool art and artifacts. Worth a trip, definitely. Also wander around the national garde...
I hate generalizations.
Just because I'm young doesn't make me wasteful, materialistic and demanding of instant gratification. Just because I shop at Ikea doesn't make me these things ...
Current inventory... a package of TJ's trek mix granola bars, two bags of Argo Maté Tea, a jar of Spice House Chai Mix, a box of mixed varieties of sugar cubes from Mauritius, a bag of cacao...
Nice. I was just lamenting that I hated getting phone books, so hopefully I'll be able to opt out of delivery. And I just started getting those factory warrenty robocalls... don't know if the do no...
Another Kentuckian, born & bred, chiming in here to say that a well made julep is absolutely not vile. I know tons of Kentuckians who drink them at Derby time. In fact, usually it's the Kentuckians...
I don't buy CDs anymore... only vinyl or digital for me. I found I wasn't listening to CDs, but I was increasingly putting my turntable to use. Besides the better sound, I like the whole process of...

I don't know what recipes you're using, but my loaf recipes never make two loaves! They're specifically designed for one loaf of sandwich bread.
