My local Fresh Market has started carrying Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream pints! I'm a very lucky girl. :-)

I love, love butterscotch. When I want a treat, I'll have an espresso with a shot of butterscotch. Delicious!

By the way, does anyone read Lucky Peach? In their 3rd issue, there was a recipe for a miso butterscotch. It is amazing!

Mints, sliced, diced or pierced fruit.

I've had the experience that some bar tenders don't know the difference between tonic and seltzer water . . . :-/

Ditto!

All-Clad is now made entirely in the USA too. Anyway, if she must absolutely have the copper core, I'd recommend going with a different cookware line. If the copper core is not essential, get the regular one with aluminum core. C&B sells the 14 piece set for just under $1,200. All-Clad is known for their great quality, so I think that their regular aluminum core will perform just as good as their copper core. I have one Le Creuset tri-ply pan, very similar construction to an All-Clad, and wow, it's like a magical tool.

I don't recommend buying the pieces individually. You'll end up paying more for them in the long run than buying a set.

I've never had it. My dad used to have it as a kid (in another country). I don't see a problem with raw milk, as long as its kept locally. I mean, it would be hard to keep it well after travel--or so, I imagine.

By the way, the nisperos--ahem, loquats--that I've had are usually round, not pear-shaped like the ones in the photo above.

Wow, I haven't had nisperos in years! I used to have them in Nicaragua and every once in a blue moon in Miami. I haven't seen them in years though.

Also, I didn't know what their name in English was. Thanks for this educational bit. :-)

Also, I do like the look of coupes. They have a more vintage feel than flutes.
