Linda...I usually get espresso powder, Medaglia D'oro, near the other instant coffees in the grocery department at Target. But lots of stores carry this.

Ice cream-wise, there's nothing better on a really hot day than mint chip or coffee. Unless it's lemon sorbetto.

Salmon or tuna cakes using canned fish. The kids can chop veggies and crush crackers. Plus....it's fish! Yummy fish.

If there's time for a dessert...I thought these chocolate balloon dishes were adorable. Kids could fill those with fresh berries, nuts, mini-marshmallows, etc.

GG_MS....you could certainly do a picnic party for your winter daughter's birthday....just have it inside. I think that would be very cute. The kids could even wear summer clothes, if you wanted to go that far.

stephy buhler....you and the third tenant ought to let the new neighbor know that hot water in your building is very limited. She's obviously not aware of this.

This isn't a canned soup per se, but for a quick tomato soup, I like to take a jar of Classico Spicy Red Pepper Pasta Sauce (Arrabiata) and blend it until smooth,I thin it out a little with some broth, or rather a dollop of Better than Bouillon and water, and then heat it up. Needs no further seasoning, but some grated parm on top is nice.

Yes, organizing books by color is weird and impractical. And it's not as bad as the completely ridiculous method of turning them so only the pages show.

Some may argue, but these techniques can not really for people who read their books so much as like to look at a vignette of books. I would rather spend time reading a book rather than trying to remember if it's in black or blue or if where the heck I put it with it's spine to the back.

I find it hard to believe that the instructions about how these "will keep for three days" is necessary. Just from the photo I can't imagine they would last past the first half hour out of the oven.

Can't wait to make 'em.

This is another adorable kid's party. It's so nice to see the return of the down-to-earth, well-thought-out kids' parties that don't break the bank. Are the days of competitively extravagant childrens' birthday parties over? I hope so.

I had broccolini in my fridge when thekitchn posted this recipe last year...
http://honestcooking.com/2011/03/15/broccoli-rabe-pastry-buns/ ...and the flavor is so mild and savory and not-really-broccoli-y (a good thing for people who don't like broccoli) that this is what I always use when I make these.

Also, there's so much less prep to cook (steam, roast, etc.) broccolini...I don't like to waste the stems of regular broccoli but peeling, etc. is a little time consuming sometimes.

Closed!! Closed!! Closed!! When you're done with it, close that lid. And I'm from L.A.

Also, WHY do people take photos of their bathroom with the toilet lid up and then post them online?? Gross. This is a HUGE pet peeve with me.

The rest of the photos of the wonderful and ebullient Miss Vivi playing in her kitchen are a treat too. She's just adorable...and I have to say that I love that the front of her stove is striped and her sink is blue.
