I won't drink a cuppa PG (Tips -black tea) without a bit of milk and sugar, but I also don't know anyone that drinks PG for their health... I do enjoy my green tea with nothing added, though -better than coffee if I need to stay awake, too... Does Putting Milk In Your Tea Negate Its Health Benefits? Food News |

I made some quick garlic-lime hummus, this morning, to eat with grilled chicken, couscous salad and sliced cucumbers, for dinner tonight... I'll also be making pan-fried pork chops, roasted garlic crushed potatoes and green beans for dinner tomorrow... What's Cooking This Weekend? Weekend of July 28-29, 2012 |

I agree with about 3 tbsp for a whole lemon; produce (especially lemons/limes) can get really expensive where we live SO I tend to use bottled lemon juice -it's not as fresh + flavorful, but it works... How Much Juice Is In a Lemon? Good Questions |

I honestly cannot remember the last time I washed any veggies or fruits before we ate them, from the grocery store(s) or farmers' market(s), and our family has never had any issues...maybe we've just been 'lucky' -but I'm not going to start washing them now. I'm also 'guilty' of sharing food with dogs and horses, and not washing my hands after running around all morning with both, before breaking outside for a quick lunch...

@vintagejenta -yes! I've gone as far as to write the expiration date of my baking powder in a bold color on the calendar in our kitchen, because even though I bake quite often, I rarely think to check the date on my baking powder... The Best & Worst Foods To Buy in Bulk |

@strundblade - I used to live in Denver and walked to Marzyck's from my apartment quite often; I loved to take friends there when they would visit, just for the sandwiches! I miss all of the places you mentioned... Shop Like a Parisian Weekend Meditation |

...having lived in Europe and Asia, then Denver when I finally moved back to the States, I loved small-but-plentiful markets within walking distance (just blocks or a few miles) from my home, which, looking back, makes me feel like I was living a spoiled life. I now live in an area where there are no small markets, the nearest farmers' market is more than a half-hour drive away, on the highway (the couple of months in the summer they're open), there are no butcher or specialty shops and our 'best grocery store' option is a W-Mart... *le sigh* I hope this move is only temporary...but we're doing what we can to appreciate what we do have (despite the tone of my comment).

I've never had a seven-layer salad (I don't care much for mayo-based 'salads') but I really like the 'seven-layer' dip, with refried beans, cheese, green chiles, tomato, black olives, sour cream and green onions... In Defense of the Seven-Layer Salad |

...have you tried foodblogsearch.com ? I just searched for 'roast goose' and quite a few recipes came up; I've wanted to roast a goose for Christmas for years, but the specimens in the freezer cases in the little towns we've lived in always look SO pathetic...maybe we can afford to buy a lovely goose online or from a local farm this year?
