Cook the Book: 'Japanese Hot Pots'

My meal-worthy soup memories are mainly not home-based. When my mother would try something with barley, it generally turned into a comical disaster due to the unanticipated expansion of the barley. I'm waiting for Pho to become as prevalent in suburban CT as it seemed to be on my last visit to Seattle...

Who Likes Grape Soda?

I've said it before on this blog, and I'll say it again: Purple Passion (1970s version): BEST SODA CAN EVER. It tasted good, too.

Tips for Choosing Supermarket Coffee

We got the legendary Technivorm for Xmas; amazing what it'll do for nearly any coffee. The stream of coffees coming into the house are typically Green Mountain mail-order, a pick from Trader Joe's, or something from Stew Leonard's (they roast on site). But the best surprise we had recently is the brick of pre-ground IKEA coffee we picked up recently--really good (maybe it liked the Dutch-made Technivorm).

Regarding the Heinz Ketchup Bottle

I dare you to find the glass bottle in a supermarket. A local burger joint was nice enough to give us a couple of "restaurant-only" bottles at a recent visit, which we re-use now. The Heinz bottle is like a big ketchup hug.

Coffee Top Caddy: Yea or Nay?

At DD, they generally add that stuff (milk, sugar) for you because they know you're on the go and have no time to open those little plastic milk sarcophaguses. But it's still a cool idea.

As for bloggies.com, I just lament the lack of SE... I think their methodology is much better (requiring e-mail authentication of your vote). And yeah, there's too many awards... I guess 'tis the season, though.

What is wrong with these blog award people? At least this one makes you register/authenticate your vote... less ballot box stuffing.
