i sliced my ring finger open cleaning knives after cutting bagels for a meeting - six fun stitches there. otherwise, most of my kitchen injuries were from my time as a grill cook - french fry grea...

i am mostly eating a lot of fruit, salad, and nuts - things that don't need to be cooked. i did cook up some chicken sausage for sandwiches last night, but kept it pretty simple overall to avoid b...

the snake method is a great way to not overhandle your meat. i tend to use a bit of dijon mustard in my burger seasoning and ditch the soy sauce, but otherwise this is pretty right on.

20 out of 24 - i was hoping i would do better, as an italian-american, but oh well. there were a couple that i had actually never seen before.

these are the best things ever invented. they do make people lose control a little bit. seriously, it's almost like you can plan for 10/pp at a cocktail party and they will STILL all go.

yes, please. that's all.

this is really practical information - in terms of planning ahead so that if you DO make too much food (which, if most people will err, it will be on the "too much" side), you can use it later. i ...

i have a lifelong hatred for cauliflower, so i would not be so happy with this particular prank. though, truth be told, i would forgive almost anything served to me in a mets bowl.

these are so cute and tasty! i would want to put a tomato and onion salad in mine. or maybe a miniburger. that might kill me though.

i love hamantaschen, especially raspberry! can't wait to dig into these (although i know all too well the perils of hot molten raspberry filling).

breakfast is my very favorite meal of the day. this blog is awesome, and though i also frequently get up too early to imagine anything but a protein shake or a bowl of cereal, it is inspiring to t...

cadbury creme eggs for me, please. i just read a recipe this morning where someone put the mini-sized ones in muffins! i would like to meet this person.

that should be M (and) I International Foods - for some reason the plus sign isn't showing up. whoops.

man, that sounds good. cashel blue is my favorite cheese. that and the guinness milkshake would put me in a singularly ecstatic food coma.

I particularly like Blue Apron - though it's a small store, they have a truly dizzying array of products. Their staff are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful, and will give you tastes of any coun...

s in DC - I hope it's not too late for me to tell you that yes, you can do them for less time. You'll have more of a marmalade-like texture, with more chewy pieces and softer pieces. I've macerate...

good butter is such a simple, clean pleasure on crusty bread. nothing else is necessary.

i love some speck. just by itself, or wrapped around an olive.

that is a gorgeous mold. and milk pudding is so satisfying. could use some of that for my sore throat right now...

well, the back cover of "in the night kitchen" is tattooed on my leg, so i guess that answers that question.
