I live in Connecticut, so normally this would make me sad. But I'm currently mulling over a job prospect in LA, so this makes me a bit more excited about freeways, smog, and earthquakes.
I didn't read the same tone as FantasticMrFaux did in this article, but I do tire of the prevailing notion that December is stuff-your-face month and January is eat-light month. I'm a fan of balanc...
That future kitchen picture looks hilariously close to a similar future kitchen drawing from the 1950s that was featured in a textbook for a class I took on mid-century design.
I made this to take to work for lunch. I love that it's a complete meal (protein, veggies, and starch) in one dish. Plus, it's so easy and delicious! I agree that it's great to make it ahead. I thi...
Actually, healthful is correct when describing food, unless you mean that the food is not sick. Healthful means full of health; healthy means in good health. I know that healthful has given way to ...
I'm 25 and when I was getting ready to move out on my own, I did a fair amount of research on various all-purpose cookbooks. I wasn't satisfied with any of the editions of Joy of Cooking, and I end...

I had a sifter very much like that one pictured and it was such a PITA. You had to screw several parts together to use it. I dropped it on the floor and the plastic cracked. I got rid of it when I ...
