Hey ibjamn! Glad to see you made it over here!

Yeah, I know. But we wanted you along for the ride too!

JaG, I can't head over there this weekend, but please try to find out any scoop you can about where he might be next. I do miss his treats!

I like to make croquettas. Take your mashed potatoes & beat an egg & mix together with some freshly chopped parsley. Make a patty of the potatoes & fill with seasoned (green onions, celery, bell pepper, garlic, etc)ground beef. You can either do this inside your hand like a taco & fo...

I need to replace my counter top oven soon and am looking for a workhorse. It needs to be large enough to cook a whole chicken. I'd like for it to be able to toast, broil & bake. Other features: temp control dial & a timer. I want dials, not those funny feeling push buttons. I'd like to get ...

Anyway, was wondering if any of you guys "freelance" like that. I had no idea what I was gonna do, even as I was doing it. I used to make a very similar pasta dish with different variations. Freelancing is what I do most of the time. It's very rare that I have a plan in mind when I am gro...
