Great tip. Thanks!

I don't think bread, muffins or potatoes would be good for a diabetic. They'll spike blood sugar levels.

Yonella, you can find that door mat on amazon:

For those who don't like the idea of giving alcohol to new moms, there's a non-alcoholic beverage called "malta", which can be found in the Latin food section of the grocery store. It's said to increase milk production, much like Guiness. I know this because my mom used to drink it for that purpose. Forty-some years later, she still drinks it because she loves it. Goya is the brand I see the most at the grocery store.

At one point, I had both table and kosher salt in the cupboard. Then, in order to save some space in favor of more spices, I decided to skip table salt and use Diamond Crystal Kosher Salt even when baking, and I never experienced any problems.

Back in my omnivore days, I used to roast chicken or pork loin covered in mustard. In these days, I love it on top of split pea soup.

I wouldn't consider "finding a knife, squeezing the citrus, and picking out the seed" a "hassle". But unclogging that thing, yes, that would be a "hassle" for me.

I like the individual ones. They look more like a super sized canapé. I'd make those.

Same here with prepacked ones. Although sometimes I use Judith Jones' glass jar method (http://www.thekitchn.com/kitchen-tour-ju-158276) with great results. And *always* check the packing date before buying! Old mushrooms will go bad in a couple of days no matter how you store them.

Made this last night and will make it again. I used canned Canary (= Mayocoba) beans and even though some of them turned into mush, they were delicious. Golden brown and crispy on the outside, creamy inside. I didn't have za'atar, so I used poultry seasoning, thyme and red pepper flakes.
