Great fondue recipe?
I just came into possession of a fondue set and am planning on making a cheese fondue for some friends next weekend. BUT - I have never made any kind of fondue before (or eaten fondue!) - do you have a great recipe to share?

I ate the Juicy Lucy!
Since seeing this post and hearing about the Juicy Lucy in different local papers / sites I have wanting to get my hands on one. Last week I went to Groveland Tap in St. Paul and placed my order. It was... heaven! The cheese was pure gooey goodness.
How many of you have had the pleasure of experiencing the Juicy Lucy? and what did you think? If you haven't tried it, I urge you to do so!
Happy eating!

So Good - Hahahahah thank you! As a woman I do not find it offensive, c'mon girls, it's funny!
Do You Find Coffee To Be a Soothing, Comforting Elixir?
Good coffee makes me feel good, but if I'm feeling sick or run down coffee just makes it worse. I drink coffee during weekday mornings to wake up. I don't think I would call it comforting....
What are you making for the super bowl?
I'm making beer cheese fondue!
I'm going to a friend's - they are making something delicious I'm sure but not yet revealed.
Pickle Juice
Drink it straight to soothe a hangover. I tried it once and it seemed to help, but that may have just been a one time phenomenon.
Meat Substitutes-Which do you prefer?
Boca Burgers (original kind) are really good. I also like Boca Brats.
I think the brand is called Fantastic Foods - they have a really good meatless sloppy joe mix. My parents (red meat eaters) take it camping all the time.
And Hormel vegetarian chili is wonderful.
Happy vegetarian eating :)
Minneapolis eating advice
First off, I live in the Twin Cities. For a business dinner I would second Loring Pasta Bar, though it is in a college neighborhood. I will get back to you on that one - don't have many business dinners in Minneapolis (and anyways I prefer St. Paul).
For breakfast - French Meadow is wonderful! I also like Longfellow Grill. I have been there many times and have always been very happy with everything.
I was not impressed with Sunny Side Up, but that is my opinion. Keys is more like one step above Perkins...
But are you looking for downtown Minneapolis or just the area in general? I have never eaten breakfast in downtown...
I ate the Juicy Lucy!
RichardCrystal - the cheese is INSIDE the burger - read the post I linked to in my original post. Plus - the bun / meat ratio is pretty close to perfect.
Try it!

Pickle Juice
Thanks to Martha Stewart's Living, I learned that quartered green tomatoes are perfect for pickling in left over pickle juice. Yum!
Pickle Juice
i love pickle juice, probably because I have hypothyroidism and addison's disease. But I love salty things. The pickle juice martini is like a really good dirty martini (which is usually just olive juice and either gin or vodka). I've seen little cans of pickle juice in the supermarket but have yet to try it.

Sabrina,
Most of the women I know - love giving sensual, sexual, fantasial pleasure to the men they adore. That's part of the joy for them in being in a relationship. That's part of the joy of being the feminine joy to the man in their life.
It's OK that you take offense. But, it makes me sad. I am sad for you if you do not have a relationship with a man in which you delight in delighting him. I am sad for you if you do not have a relationship in which you both delight in delighting the other - using your specific feminine and masculine souls - delighting the specific masculine and feminine spirit of the other.

amy's spicy vegetarian chili for the nights i'm not home so that hopefully my husband will eat something
man, i think that's all my cans. sometimes light coconut milk makes it's way in there. i'm pretty boring in the pantry i guess, most of the food goes in the fridge. usually buy westbrae, eden or goya...it's what the corner bodega stocks.

Pickle Juice
We run a Girls Softball League Concession Stand and sell the clausen pickles, but also we freeze the juice in sauce cups and the kids go NUTS over Picklecicles!!! In 3 weeks time we have gone thru over 150 picklecicles. Now if we can just get them to buy the pickles, so we can buy more juice!!! We need to figure out how to make homemade pickle juice??
