I'm bored with my panini maker.
The Williams Sonoma Grilled Sandwiches book is excellent and includes paninis for all meals. Very diverse book ranging from just a couple ingredients to many.

Starwich - your opinions?
There are 6 locations so far (7th in the works) in nyc and others in other states. I've ordered delivery from wall st before before and i loved the sandwich i created. I thought it was a decent size and it was satisfying. My husband on the other hand, came up with some weird concoction and was definitely not as happy. But they arent responsible for bad combos. -http://www.starwich.com/

Looking for a good recipe for sugar-free peanut butter cookies
I made this recipe for my work's potluck and people really liked:
Magical Peanut Butter Cookies
Recipe courtesy Paula Deen
Show: Paula's Home Cooking
Episode: Healthy Cooking
1 cup peanut butter, creamy or crunchy
1 1/3 cups baking sugar replacement (recommended: Splenda)
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a large baking sheet.
In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, 1 cup sugar replacement, the egg, and vanilla, and stir well with a spoon. Roll the dough into balls the size of walnuts. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet. With a fork, dipped in sugar replacement to prevent sticking, press a crisscross design on each cookie. Bake for 12 minutes, remove from the oven, and sprinkle the cookies with some of the remaining sugar replacement. Cool slightly before removing from pan.

What do you order when you go to the cheap Chinese takeout?
The hallmark of any chinese take out are these. If they don't have any of these items, look elsewhere.
(1) Beef chow fun, dry style, with little oil -- gwon chow gnow haw
(2) Tomatoe beef chow mein, crispy noodle, hong kong style -- fon ke gnow chow mein, hong kong chow.
If they barbeque their own meats on the premises (3) anything that looks good over rice is good.
For comfort food, try (4) pig nuckle noodle soup -- gee siew mein tong.

PB&Nutella panini. Think outside the normal cheese/meat combo box. The sandwiches cookbook from 'ino is amazing.

Looking for a good recipe for sugar-free peanut butter cookies
I finally tried these today. I think 12 minutes may be a minute or two too long - the cookies crumble quite easily. They taste great, though - very peanutty. It's just the texture isn't quite right.
I'll probably try making them a few more times to see if I can improve the recipe at all, and I'll look at regular PB cookie recipes too to see if I can adapt the SF recipe at all.

I loooove egg foo young!!! Everyone looks at me like I'm from an alien planet when I'm eating that. I could live off that stuff. And crab rangoon. So, creamy and delicious. We do have the hobo style and not the funky triangle version. With lots of filling too. And egg rolls!!! I love those too! I'm so not healthy when it comes to chinese food. Man, I want some chinese now.
Question of the Day: What are you planning to eat during the Super Bowl?
My dad made a huge pot of chili today, so I had that on top of some brown rice, with sour cream and cheddar cheese. I usually make nachos, but feel like it this year. Instead, I threw some tortilla chips into the bowl. And I washed it all down some Yuengling Black & Tan.
Question of the Day: What are you planning to eat during the Super Bowl?
I'm based in France... so I had dinner way before the Superbowl would even happen. Still... got all festive... went with sausage, potatoes and guacamole, but done french style. So boudin blanc aux trompettes de mort, carottes de sable, roasted salt potatoes and guacamole à la poire. Enjoy and GO BEARS!
