I have schoolwork that I should be doing. Of course, instead, I baked an apple tart with candied ginger, and I'm making a variety of mezze for dinner tonight, including carrot and beet salad, (bake...
I haven't tried Rose's recipe, but once I tried Alice Waters' lemon curd recipe, I knew that I was never, ever going to go back to making lemon bars by simply mixing up the eggs and lemon and a tot...
Just my two cents' worth - I'm a student. I don't have a lot of spare money, and most of my classmates are in the same boat. I think that for those of us without much money, it often feels awkward ...
My parents are remodeling their kitchen with all Ikea cabinetry, and while it's still in progress, I think they're really happy with the results so far (all the cabinets are in, but they haven't go...
I got Vegan Soul Kitchen and Cradle of Flavour for Christmas, and I plan to cook from both of them as much as possible. I want to try some dishes with tempeh, because although I've

Cider vinegar is my go-to for dressings, as well as pickles and chutneys. I definitely use it more than any other kind of vinegar. (And I use vinegar a lot ).
My favourite whipping method - although not one I use anymore, now that my old (and deceased) hand mixer has been replaced by a KitchenAid - involved a drill. After the death of the hand mixer but ...
We're also pie-crust cookie makers in my family, but my Mom always rolls out the remaining crust, spreads the butter, sprinkles on the cinnamon and sugar, and then rolls it up into a spiral and sli...
Hi Victoria: my first apartment had a kitchen almost as badly laid out and without space for a kitchen island inside the kitchen and no way to move any of the appliances. I know it's not the ideal ...
Shirley - in the five years since I moved out of my parents house, I went from owning a couple of boxes worth of books to needing three floor-to-ceiling bookshelves. (I hasten to add that I'm a com...
I really don't care about the name; that's marketing for you. It just doesn't look like a terribly useful device; I've never felt the need for an extra attachment to facilitate pouring from a skill...
gingergirl: I like the lotion idea too - but if you don't keep it in the original container, it's nice to make sure that it's obvious what is lotion and what is soap. (My first roommate had identic...
