Yes! Totally agree. I pay between 5.50-6.50 a dozen at the farmer's market, but have no problem with it because I am supporting local farmers and getting fresher eggs.

Oh hey! Use a knife.

My friend gave me a few of these and my husband and I made limoncello and have been storing it in these bottles. They work well and are airtight.

I have a suribachi that i use quite a bit, and bought at an Asian grocery for cheap. Most of the spices I buy are whole, and it seems like a waste to get out the spice grinder when you only need 1/...

I buy goat meat at the Farmer's Market in Seattle and use it in stews. I have a really good recipe for a goat and rhubarb stew that I think I am going to have to make soon!

Honeycrisp! The name kind of says it all.....

Dinner tonight-Country ham and grits with red-eye gravy!

You can get them basically everywhere in Seattle. They are good!

Heston Blumenthal's Spaghetti Bolognese. The cooking took about 8 hours and the prep took another 8 hours over two days. Fortunately, it made a lot of sauce that could be easily frozen. And it was ...

My husband recently made a rhubarb ketchup that turned out to be fantastic. I believe his recipe came from the epicurious.com website.

Is the body of that thing made from plastic? I could see that lasting about six months in my kitchen before it breaks. I'll stick to my all metal grater and use my hand-held microplane when needed.

Pumpkin bread spread with cream cheese!
