Do you eat a bed-time snack? What is it?
any and everything i can get my hands on, there is no restriction =D
What Are Your Recipe Deal Breakers?
the food processor definately.
that's the one and only that i can think of for the moment.
with frying, i tend to just guess the temperature it's at based on how much bubbling it does when i throw something like some batter in. works pretty well for me.

Cook the Book: 'My Last Supper'
My last meal would have to be with the one person that is most important to me on the beach ;). First course, Crab cakes(with some lobster in there just because) topped with a apple-mango chutney. Second Course, a very THICK steak of prime rib(no need to add anything else). And for dessert, Chocolate covered strawberries(i just love them)

Adam that was sweet. It totally made my day, Thanks!
Do you eat a bed-time snack? What is it?
It depends on the day. If it's a salty-craving day, I reach for some dill pickles. If it's a sweet-craving day, there's nothing better than chocolate milk, eaten with a spoon rather than drank straight out of the glass. Brings back all kinds of nostalgic memories.
What Are Your Recipe Deal Breakers?
Anything that requires me to visit more than 2 grocery stores is out. I'll make substitutes where I can, but I have a one-year old - time is a luxury I'd rather not spend grocery shopping.
What Are Your Recipe Deal Breakers?
I pretty much avoid most baking recipes, except for the simple things I grew up making, like cookies or biscuits. I do not make candy, cakes, or especially meringues. maybe someday when I am not living in a cramped apartment with an electric stove. That's pretty much it in terms of deal breakers; I will try most things at least once before giving up on the idea.
Do you eat a bed-time snack? What is it?
I never fall asleep early (that is, if I am asleep by 3 am, it's a good night for me), so if I eat at 7 pm (which is when we usually have supper), I may get really hungry by midnight - 1 am. I usually have some cheese and fruit or olives, maybe a glass of wine. If I happen to have some pistachio ice cream in the freezer, it's good too. It does vary though between sweet and savoury, and there's no telling which one I may crave on any particular night:-) Sometimes I may have weird cravings (Cluck-U wings, for example-:)), but most nights, the cheese and fruit/olive plate works for me.
What Are Your Recipe Deal Breakers?
I think it's funny that so many of the reasons listed in the original post are recipes that are avoided because of not owning enough appliances. There are always ways around not having every appliance imaginable. David Lebovitz has instructions for making ice cream when you don't have an ice cream maker, most things that require a stand mixer can be done by hand with a teeny bit more elbow grease, similar to most things that require a food processor. All of these things were made long before most kitchens had a million appliances and gadgets. I say give it a try!

I once read a Martha recipe that called for Chardonnay twigs. Oh, I drew the line right quick.
