Thanks Doc, for the link. I've always been a fan of Chef Chris' food, but found myself hardpressed to get anyone to go to the Delachaise with me with any frequency. My MFDC especially, since we're late nighters and always looking for something good past 9, 10, 11pm in that general area on a weekly b...

Instead of eating out twice every weekend, we eat out twice a month. Buy all meat on sale. We both brown bag our lunches. I watch the circulars and keep a well-stocked pantry and don't waste a thing. I have been keeping records of what things have cost in the last 6 months and the money I've saved,...

Cho, I find beets to sometimes be a real "product of nature" whose MMV. The range of flavors that come from each beet can be really different. I've had some great golden beets and some others that were terrible & bland. I love beets! I cook them like you do. I also like to shred or thi...

We have a ceramic fondue pot, with stand and burner, from the 1960's. Miraculously it has never cracked or broken although we use it regularly. All of the other fondue pots I have ever seen have been metal. I never considered it as "vintage", but it might be such. Picture on request. My f...
