Cook the Book: Eugenia Bone's 'Well-Preserved'

My grandmother canned everything, and I'm sad I never got to learn from her. I already can a few things: tomato sauce and jelly, but there are so many other things I'd like to try! Corn, peaches...

Served: New York Is Not the Only Place for a Restaurant

Congrats, Hannah. I remember the day I walked out of my last exam in college. It was a like a 20-pound weigh was lifted off my shoulders!

Who loves Anne Burrell?!

At first she weirded me out. But I gave her another chance and I fell. Kinda like some of the guys in my past. You know?

You live where?

Hope I'm not too late to this party.

I'm in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The original home of a few things you all know: R.J. Reynolds, Hanes underwear, Krispy Kreme and Wachovia. (And about 15 miles from Lexington, N.C., the home of Western N.C. barbecue).

Cook the Book: 'How to Cook Everything, Revised Tenth Anniversary Edition'

His Thanksgiving turkey suggestion of cooking the bird in PIECES is brilliant.

And I had never made fish until I tried his basic recipe for salmon. Yum.

Economy's Spam Sector Picks Up Steam Amid Downturn

I CRAVED spam while I was pregnant. (The boy was born in July.) I guess being in the South pretty much screwed him when it comes to trying to avoid the whole "You might be a redneck if ... your mama fed you Spam in utero."

Wildwood: Good but Inconsistent Barbecue

But Texas and N.C. bbq are so different! If it's one restaurant with lots of different kinds of bbq, no WONDER they can't get it right.

As for me? I'm heading Down East to the coast next week, and a stop at Wilbur's in Goldsboro is on the itinerary! (I'm a Western N.C. girl who married an Eastern N.C. boy, whose uncle has a bbq restaurant. They turned me.)

Wildwood: Good but Inconsistent Barbecue

Just curious ... Smokey's had N.C. bbq? Eastern or Western? That's wild. N.C. bbq in NYC.

Eating for Two: Papaya Sorbet

Mine is already a squash. That would hurt, too, much less the WATERmelon I'll have in a few short weeks. Cute chart, nonetheless!

Moo, Brittania: Oreos Make Splash in England

Isn't there room in Britain for one measly cookie? I'll admit I like their chocolate bars better. (Yummmm, cadbury with crispies.) They should give our Oreos a chance!

Cart Contents May Predict Who You Vote For

I read this article and thought it was a sorry excuse for journalism. I also thought it was ridiculous and completely unscientific. Is this what all of the millions of dollars that these candidates are raising is going to? Sheesh.

Top 10 Awesome Nostalgic Foods We Want Back

Turkey Talk 2007 with Gourmet's Ruth Reichl

I relish every word that woman says! I just finished "Garlic..." and was completely inspired. I love the fact that she wants to do all the cooking. Sounds like many of us - kitchen control freaks, no?!

Favorite no-bake treats?

I'm so glad you enjoyed them! Easy and awesome, aren't they? I made meringue cookies one time where you heat the oven, then stick the cookies in, turn it off and they're ready in the morning. Really cool. (But not as good as those bars!)
