For those in New York who don't want to try baking them, Joyce Bakeshop on Vanderbilt Ave in Brooklyn has great French style macaroons - almost as good as the ones I had on rue de Bac in Paris!

The Good Eats ice cream episode has god advice about why homemade ice cream is often icy. The main thing is to thoroughly chill the mixture before it goes in the ice cream maker. If you put it in warm or only slightly chilled, the ice crystals are much larger in the finished ice cream, and this makes it more icy in texture.

Ours has a mute, but it only lasts for about a minute or so before it goes off again. And our ceilings are so tall that I have to swing with the broom handle just to reach the mute button. Apartment Therapy The Kitchen | Survey: Do You Disable Your Smoke Alarm When You Cook? |

I am so excited to see a blender on the giveaways! We have been blenderless for a while - since the last one's jar broke. We've been making do with a stick blender, but it just leaves most things lumpy. So - one thing I would make is smoother pureed soups and applesauce. We are also expecting our first baby in May, and the need for a blender has become more immediate since we want to make our own babyfood.

I make a recipe that is like a dressed up version of the marshmallow classic. Sweet and spicy, but the topping is brown sugar put under the broiler to form a faux creme brulée. Apartment Therapy - Thanksgiving 2007: Sweet Potato Survey |

That's a great intention, but do not throw a whole pumpkin into a compost pile. In order to break down in a timely fashion, anything put into compost should be chopped up into small pieces (for example, a whole orange is too big). Also, wax should be removed from the inside.
