OK, I'm a Midwesterner too, but we called it a Graveyard. What gives?
Cookbook Giveaway: 'Super Natural Cooking'
I love plain yogurt. I can sub it in for cream in a soup or sauce, turn it into a refreshing dip with cucumbers, tomatoes, onions lemon juice and mint, or make a smoothie out of it with any number of fresh of frozen fruits. It's versatile, available in low-fat and organic versions and is full of protein and digestion-aiding bacteria.
Coming to America: The World's Greatest Street Food
OK, if I can't go to this, do any of you knkow a good restaurant to get Chili Crab that isn't on Singapore's Gold Coast? I've been craving it ever since I was elbow deep in a bowl of it years ago...
Fruit: A Risk vs Reward Analysis
Actually, I HAVE had a very memorable banana (or 5...). In Thailand, straight from a tree no more than 100 yards away. Now THAT's a banana worth writing home about! For a year after that, I always swore I tasted pesticides in American grocery store bananas. I'm sure they were fine and all, but they can't compare to the ripened on the tree flavor you get in Thailand.

I know this is an older posting but I had to respond. When I was a kid in the early seventies in Arkansas we called it a Suicide. We had a snack shack set up at school that the FBLA kids worked in and they sold drinks and snacks during recess. MMMM those were the days.

I love the whirl of the knive beneath my hand, the hum of the chopping and the bubbling of pots on the cooktop.

Hasn't happened yet. Though I'm most happy when making pizza, I can't say how much happier I'll be once our kitchen renovations are done, but it'll be a lot more.

I am happiest setting the mise en place--there is nothing like having all your ingredients at the ready when it's time to start cooking!

A fresh clean cutting board is like a blank sheet of notebook paper—love it! Also when my boyfriend and I are both in the kitchen, chopping and cooking away and then we sit down on our bar stools, our bounty spread out on the butcher block in various dishes, and we drink wine and talk about what we want to do in life, that's happiness.

My happiest times are when my mother visits from Seoul and teaches me how to cook the Korean dishes that I grew up with. She has a completely idiosyncratic way of measuring ingredients: "put water into the rice cooker until it reaches the first fold of your wrist when you bend your hand." Of course it works perfectly every time! Then we get to eat and reminisce as the culmination of our hours of hard work.
