my sweetie and I are both at the office by 7am, so we go to bed early, DVR the Daily Show and Colbert Report and watch them the next day during dinner. We provide a running commentary and discuss t...

i have no idea if this works, but an old trick for getting wax off of stuff is to put a towel or piece of cloth (that you are willing to sacrifice) over the dried gunk and then running a warm iron ...

we make this with spam, peas, and carrots. recipe courtesy of our good friend's filipina mum. we don't have the metabolism to eat it often, but we do enjoy it.

if they're way early, i might send them out for another bottle of wine or something.

i've always wanted to try a flourless white chocolate torte but have heard that you need real chocolate or else the texture doesn't work. yea? nay?

would like to fourth or fifth the dislike of the amana ads. i find them very frustrating.

Tuna and swordfish are nice and meaty, and not at all salmon-y (i don't like salmon either). Marinate with lemon and parsley and grill. serve over ratatouille with crusty bread and olive oil for di...

olive oil, onion, garlic, pasta, some kind of frozen veg. with these, i can make a meal.

a favorite of ours is slow-scrambled eggs with sauteed vegetables and onions and goat cheese. serve with pita or toast. mm!

i chop and freeze onions all the time.

noodles cooked in broth with peas and parmesan. rice pudding. grilled cheese and tomato soup. gefilte fish. black bean tacos. tuna casserole. mac and cheese.

i imagine that traditional sandwich fillings rolled up in fajita-sized tortillas and then sliced into rounds and secured with a toothpick would be a fun twist.

ooh, it might be worth trying with almond butter and orange zest for something a little fancier....

i was about to make the exact same suggestion!

it would be fun to figure out how to serve this in pint glasses. :)

i usually use egg substitute when i am making something that requires less than one egg. i never miss the yolk, and it's easy to just pour a couple tablespoons.

tomatoes and stone fruit. mmm.
