Sugar Rush: Migliorelli Farm Cider Doughnuts at the Union Square Greenmarket

I am not a doughnut fan and even I can agree that those are the best. Migilorelli is at 175th St (June to November) as well.

Shamrock Shake in NYC?

Has anyone tried to find it at that giant neon McDo's in Times Square? They always have bizarre stuff (like donuts) so it seems like they're the most likely candidate...

Dude! I can't believe you just compared Top Chef's Marcel to Satan. Hasn't that kid suffered enough already?

What causes food hangover?

This happens to me every time I eat pizza for dinner. Every. Freakin'. TIme. I thought I was the only person who got food hangovers.

Personally, I suspect salt. My theory is a salty dinner followed by sleep must lead to dehydration (if I was awake, I'd be thirsty, ergo, no hangover), which then leads to waking up feeling hungover.

Does Cooking Make You Gay?

Ah, but you forgot to point out that Hasbro recently went on to make a REAL MEAL oven for REAL MANLY MAN BOYS. During the holidays, that post got a lot of traffic from Google for people searching for "easy bake oven for boys".

Terhune Orchards in Princeton, NJ, makes these, too - they are the yummiest! They sell them both with and without the cinnamon sugar. I always get them with the sugar. They're too good - I can go through a bag of 6 in no time flat.

Stop, I'm making myself hungry!

Shamrock Shake in NYC?

McDonald's in NYC always votes it down to be politically correct. It's the way NYC people think. If you have a shake for St.Patrick's Day, you have to have one for all the other major ethnic groups in NYC.

Someone in New York, Queens, Brooklyn, wherever, would complain that there should be a way to represent other ethnic groups on the menu, instead of just one.

And now you all know the real reason NYC area McDonald's franchise owners vote it down every year.

I'm so glad that your doughnut quest was easier than your Shamrock Shake quest!

Does Cooking Make You Gay?

I think that cooking in general seems hypersexualized. If you're not Gordon Ramsey, cursing your way around the kitchen, then you must be Nigella Lawson, Paula Deen, or Rachel Ray - a domestic goddess, downhome pork-lovin' grandma, or the bubbly cheerleader next door.

In so many other areas, modern men and women defy traditional gender roles - is it so hard to imagine a woman firing up a grill? Or a father serving warm milk and cookies to his children when they come home from school?

Does Cooking Make You Gay?

Hi, I am a straight female, and I have two opinions about cooking in general. First is cooking is very sexy. I think satisfying your sense of smell by cooking and satsfying your taste buds by eating is an aphrodisiac within itself. It completely turns me on.
Secondly cooking requires a strong character, especially if you are working in a professional kitchen. Whether you are gay, straight, men or female you hae to have a strong personality and be able to endure tough situations. Nobosy likes a cry baby in a kitchen. So to answer the question; cooking does not make one gay at all. For one thing it makes a person either sexy or strong.

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

Very very clever. I love it best made with sourdough bread.

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.

this was the first dish i learned to cook, and it was called, by my children's cookbook, "the gashouse special."

I know them as Eggs in a Basket, but a friend of mine calls them Cowboy Eggs. Who knew this dish had so many different names?

"Egg in the nest"! I first had this when a post-college housemate of mine made it one morning. I'm surprised I had never seen it until that point.

This dish by any other name would still taste as awesome.

Toad in a hole!
But Adam, perhaps cage free eggs are one thing it's worth insisting on. Cruelty toward defenseless animals does not make your breakfast taste very good, even if it saves a few cents.

I was told it was a 'One-eyed Aussie', cooked on an unwashed BBQ plate to absorb all the goodness of barbecues past :P

I'm from Calgary, which is an hour away from the Rocky Mountains. I grew up calling this a Birmingham egg. No idea why - my family doesn't know anyone from England...

Hey, I always thought it was called 'snake eyes'. (Cuz when you make two, they stare up at you like eyes.)

Cute story with a good point! Sometimes we forget the whole point of food, i think...
