Gadgets: Jar Spatula by Martha Stewart Collection

King Arthur Flour has what they call Spreaders in a set of six, four short and two long, they are a bit wider at an inch or so but they are flexible enough and all one piece to use to scrape anything out of a jar - mayo, peanut butter. They aren't heat resistent and you do have to be careful using them in the food processor so as to not cut into them but they work well for any scraping - bowl, jar, or food processor. I have even used mine for a bench scraper. They are one of my fav kitchen tools.

Cakespy: Cupcake Milkshake

I say, Why not! I love cake and milk, cake and ice cream and I really love to take my homemade brownies with frosting and have it with ice cream and once in a while I will chop up the brownie and mix it in the ice cream. It is definitely a decadent treat and not meant for everyday. Is this any different than Cookie and Cream ice cream? I do think hand stirring would be better than blending but then that is my personal opinion. To each his own, I guess.

The Crisper Whisperer: Zucchini and Corn Fritters Rule the World. For Reals

Wow, after reading more comments, I learned some more. I didnt know you could cook kohlrabi. I thought all you would do was eat it raw. Well, if my six are still good, we will be trying something new this evening. Thank you and yes, we need more on kohlrabi. We need to spread the word. When I mention it, people look at me and say "What?'.

The Crisper Whisperer: Zucchini and Corn Fritters Rule the World. For Reals

LOL, OMG, I am LMA off here. Thanks for telling us what CSA meant, I was wondering also. I had seen that before but couldnt remember.
As for the "Sneak a Kohlrabi into your neighbor's crisper" Day. I have my own, tyvm, about 6 of them harvested about 6 weeks ago. They are starting to look a little mangy but I dont have the heart to throw them out yet.
As for the zucchini, we harvest every day and hubs always manages to miss a couple so you all know what happens to them. It is attack of the killer zucchini the next day. I think he has hurt his shoulder tossing them. We do a lot of things with them - SHARE THEM, make zucchini fritters with corn and without, eat them raw, shake with Bisquick and fry, but the best is sauteeing them up with leftover cut off corn on the cob. Saute in olive oil to begin with and then add a pat of butter at the end so it coats and makes everything look glossy and yummy.
Long live the zucchini gods!

Cook the Book: 'Endangered Recipes' by Lari Robling

My fondest memories are eating at my grandmother's. She always had a meal for us when we came to viist. She always had leftover cooked bacon sitting on a plate on the stove and we could have a bite. Sometimes she would call up to the little neighborhood grocerier and order lunchment(liverwurst and pimento loaf) and other stuff and we would walk up and get it for her. She made the very best apple pies and she listened to Kitchen Klatter every morning on the radio and wrote down the recipes. I have a whole collection of her bits and pieces of paper with recipes on them.

Making Butter at Home

Yes, we made lots of butter when I was young as we had dairy cows and lots of cream. We had one of those jar butter churns. Now I make it once in a while when I have cream to use up and I use either my mixer or a jar depending on how much I have. It is wonderful stuff on most anything. Especially good with new radishes from the garden.

Seriously Delicious Holiday Food Giveaway: Russ & Daughters

Well I dont live close enough to go to Russ and Daughters but I perked when I saw this article as they were on the Martha Stewart Show on Dec 22. They brought bagels, cream cheese and smoked salmon for the show guests and my mouth was watering. If I ever get to NYC, it will be on my list of places to visit for sure.

Cook the Book: Jamie at Home

One of my favs is a beef potato hash made with leftover roast beef, raw potatoes, onion (all roughly ground in the FP) and leftover gravey or broth, seasoned to taste and then cooked until thick and hashy. Yummy with homemade bread or biscuits.
