chicken and lamb over rice
Any of the 4th of July BBQs we had in our backyard growing up, with my dad at the grill and my mom bringing us trays of food.

sausage and mushroom!
with mozzarella or melon!
If I wanted to use cutouts for the crust of a pie that requires blind baking (like pumpkin for instance), do I blind bake it altogether and add the filling, or do I put the cutouts on after the crust is filled?
I tried your stuffing recipe last year and loved it, but I felt like the sausage came out a bit on the dry/hard side. Is there a way to keep the sausage a little more tender?
I was lucky enough to catch Sugar Shack last Saturday at the Food Festival, and it was definitely my favorite festival piece that day. It was really a well done, heartfelt, charming piece, and your Audience Choice Award is well deserved. Congratulations!

I always go to Rafiqi's near FIT.
Before I start eating, I will usually drop one in my glass of milk and then proceed to dunk and devour the rest of my oreos. When I finish my glass of milk, I grab a spoon and scoop out the super soft oreo as my final treat :)
Growing up, the Marie Callender's near our house made a version of Boston Cream Pie that had a layer of cake and custard in a pie shell and then covered in chocolate ganache. It was one of my favorites, but sadly they discontinued it. This recipe looks great though. Can't wait to try it!

Oh man this is hard, but I guess I would have to go with ribs.

Pain au chocolat: buttery, flaky, chocolatey, and full of despair, as illustrated by The Sadness of Pain au Chocolat by Ben Horsley. When you eat a pain au chocolat, you're doing it the favor of putting it out of its misery. More
Video or photographic footage of one badly managed farm or even a thousand badly managed farms does not prove that the production of foie gras, as a practice, is necessarily harmful to the health or mental well-being of a duck. Foie gras production should be judged not by the worst farms, but by the best, because those are the ones that I'm going to choose to buy my foie from if at all. More
The difference between a sauté pan and a skillet is a subtle but important one, and it all comes down to shape. A sauté pan, from the French verb meaning "to jump" (sauter) has a wide flat bottom, and relatively tall, vertical sides. A skillet, on the other hand, has sides that flare outward at an angle. But the real question is, when should you use each one, and do you really need both? More

Personally, I find nothing more frustrating in the kitchen than a dull knife. Not only does it make prep work a chore and your finished product less attractive, it's also downright dangerous. A dull blade requires more pressure to cut into a food, and can easily slip off of a tough onion skin and into your finger. Ouch. Here's a slideshow on how to sharpen a knife with a sharpening stone, with recommendations on what stones to buy. More

The "Meat-shaped Stone," along with the "Jadeite Cabbage," made during the Ch'ing Dynasty (1644–1911) are some of the most famous pieces at the National Palace Museum in Taipei, Taiwan.... More
