Supermarket food is blah. I want the real deal! Not processed crap, nothin made in a plant with dirty machines touching the food that goes to my tummy! I shop at my local stores, fresh and real. Plus I know the salespeople and owner, and they help me with what i want and know what I need! Not like those supermarkets where it is impersonal and the cashier is just another john on the street.

My husband. I'm the best baker, though. We've both surpassed my Mom, who's been taking it easy and letting us serve her, which is fine. She's certainly earned it.

My four-year old has perfected pizza dough though so the future is bright.

nothing better for me ... than a seller thats interested in the food they are showing you, I have a great cheese place i go to, every time I go ... would you like to try some? ... have you tried this ?...this compliments that? perhaps I am a sucker at heart .. but so what for me its all part of the richness of life .. it is so boring gong into another supermarket ... they are all the same ..

it has been a long slow lesson -- took about thirty years to learn. to wit: 98% of the time you get what you pay for. every once in a while you get a bargain, but believe me, it is offset by the bazillion times you have actually overpaid for your bargain.

Question of the Day: Which family member of yours is the best cook?

It used to be my mom, but I'm pretty sure I could give her a run for her money now.

Except her pasta sauce - I can never match it!

Either myself or my mother. I think years of smoking has affected my father's tastebuds and he tends to overseason everything. He's otherwise great in the kitchen.
