I can imagine I would be star struck with Mario and Joe. I also could have cut those rolls and not cut my finger. Practice more practice.

Yes, definitely not cajun. I just don't know how rosemary and crawfish would taste together, ewww.

Killer Cajun Crawfish

um . . . While I am sure that recipe is in fact delicious, it definitely isn't Cajun.

Here's the easiest way to make boiled crawfish. Fill a pot with water. Throw in garlic, lemons, onions, salt cayenne and some Zatarain's crab boil (either liquid or dry works). Let it boil for a bit to make sure the water is fully flavored. add new potatoes and biol for 5 or so minutes, then add crawfish and boil for another 5 or so minutes. Serve immediately. Voila, real Cajun boiled crawfish.

you can buy Zatarain's products through their website here.

What to do with all those spices and herbs?

Megnut, I think my microplane grater and Nutmeg are the most used things my kitchen. I use nutmeg in something almost everyday. Spinach, eggs, cream sauces mmmmm. My favorite tip I learned believe it or not from Gilmore Girls (go figure). I grate a little into my coffee before brewing. It gives the coffee a lovely smooth and very subtle flavor.

The 'Pig Heaven Honor Roll'

RE L.A. BBQ: My LA-living daughter tells me that Gadberry's (an old favorite of mine) is closed and has been for some time.

The 'Pig Heaven Honor Roll'

A favorite Bacon Purveyor:
The Grateful Palate. Their selections are unique and well chosen, and the Bacon of the Month Club a fun gift that I've given, but sadly, for some reason never received.

Wonderful! And I loved the Snapple reference. Remember the Snapple lady? I wonder whatever happened to her...

Fabulous story! Brilliant. Inspired in any way by Michael Pollen's recent NYTsunday mag article on eating like our great grandparents?

Another vote for eggs in a basket.

Oysters vs. Chocolate: Which Is Sexier?

As far as Aphrodisiacs go, I'll take Giant Clam.

When I was introduced to giant clam sushi, my friendly sushi chef asked me if I was married or had a girlfriend. I told him that I had a girlfriend.

"But why?" I asked. He didn't speak his answer. Instead, he held out his right arm so that it was bent at the elbow with an upright fist. With his other hand, he slapped the bottom of his elbow, and then hardened his fist, which sent his whole arm quivering.

The sushi bar erupted with bawdy laughter at his ribald characterization of a monstrous male member.

"Oh... so you eat giant clam, then that happens, and you need your
girlfriend right away."

Westerners believe oysters put you in the mood; why not giant clam?

Fantastic article! After seeing Tom Jones, I'm pretty much convinced that even a drumstick is sexy but if pressed I'd go with oysters. Definitely oysters.
