Cook the Book: 'Arthur Schwartz's Jewish Home Cooking'
I just made hamantaschen, so I'm tempted to promote the cookie's virtues. But I'll have to say that sufganiyot are still my favorite.

Dunkin Donuts Pulls Rachael Ray Ad Due to Arab-Looking Scarf
This whole issue is ridiculous on so many levels.
a) It's definitely not a keffiyah. You can clearly see that it is paisley.
b) Even if it were a keffiyah, it would be far more likely to just be misappropriated as a fashion accessory than a political statement.
c) The keffiyah is worn all over the Arab world
d) When used as a political statement, its a symbol of Palestinian liberation, not a support for terrorism.

I like all kinds; it's hard to choose a favorite. Although last time I said humboldt fog, ight now I'm craving welsh rarebit. So this time I'll say a strong cheddar.

today I'm craving baked french toast casserole, praline style. Only thing New York about it is that I regularly serve it at my house! Soft, souffle like, with sugary buttery pecans on top. So good!

Another vote for humboldt fog. It's so good.

Many fine meals had at this location when I was growing up..Many fond memories!! The West Indies Salad and the Crab Claws were always on my plate. I am a child of the 60's..and was always a special treat to go to Bayleys!! The ironed white table cloths..and the wait staff. There were 5 in my family, and always 2 waiters/servers to insure our meal got served all together. We would enter through the kitchen....a rare treat, as we would see the staff.
Captains Wafers and real butter..along with bread and butter pickles..I could go on forever! Dang, I miss BAMA!
Gawd, I MISS THOSE DAYS OF MY CHILDHOOD!
Dunkin Donuts Pulls Rachael Ray Ad Due to Arab-Looking Scarf
This has got to be the most dumb-ass politically correct crap to come down the pike, ever.
Did it ever occur to anyone that perhaps RR was wearing this scarf because she's put on a few pounds and is trying to hide a turkey neck? Your eyes are drawn to her face, then her scarf and since she was obviously shot from the waist up you bypass her tuches and hips. Say what you will about RR but this is political correctness gone awry.

What really surprises me is that no one at DD realized the similarity between that scarf and the traditional religious garb. For crying out loud, who decided on a gray and white scarf for someone who has made a career out of being annoyingly perky? They couldn't find purple? Hot pink?

@suburbangourmet: Just tryin to state the obvious...:)
Now if we could only find a way to incorporate this measure into other bothersome commercials...

@Butrflygirly
LMAO! You are 100% correct!

It seems that people are forgetting the bright side:
One less commercial featuring RR speaking for DD.
Silver Lining folks!!

Michelle Malkin with the same scarf. Much as I have no love for Rachel Ray, Malkin has no place to criticize her. Glasshouses and all that.

That's a scarf of some sort?
I thought it was a special sort of donut napkin.

I'm not sure which strikes me as more banal: the idea of "keffiyah chic" as sold by Urban Outfitters, or the folks who got their panties in a twist over a paisley scarf.
Just another one of those "humanity is doomed" moments, I guess.

suburban, you have no point. "Rightwingers" was a perfectly accurate characterization of the people whose panties are in a bunch over this completely idiotic non-event.

I've never had a favorite and therefore would love to develop one. I dont think I've ever had any Jewish food.

I years for my Grandmothers Noodle Kugel. All warm and sheesy with raisong throughout. A wonderful cuttable texture. A true food for the soul. Brings back memories of our holidays together.
