Cook the Book: 'Good Eats: The Early Years'

One year my parents and I could not attend the Thanksgiving celebration with the rest of our family. I was about 16, and my mother had just had knee surgery and at the last minute was not feeling up for the drive. We live in Brooklyn and figured that it would not be so hard to find a supermarket open on Thanksgiving in our neighborhood. Unfortunately, we were wrong. The only thing open was the bodega around the corner. We scrapped our plans for an elaborate meal and made due with groceries from the small store. I think I made some sort of cheesecake bars from the side of the cream cheese package. It was a low key, but enjoyable Thanksgiving.

Where should I go for graduation lunch?

I'm graduating from grad school on Tuesday morning (!) and trying to figure out where to eat lunch for 4 people. Somewhere on the east side of Manhattan is probably easiest. I am looking for somewhere nice, but not too expensive (places with 3-course lunch menus are cool though). I am hoping to go somewhere that feels special and will be relaxing - they won't push us out quickly. Any ideas/recommendations? Thanks!!!!!

Inexpensive restaurant in BK/Manhattan for medium-ish bday din?

Hello! I am trying to think up a good place for a casual birthday gathering (for myself). I am really just looking for a fairly inexpensive place that possibly has a separate room or area for a larger group. I have a feeling I won't know exactly how many people are coming until the last minute, so I don't really want to have to go somewhere that requires a strict # of people for a table, etc. Any ideas?

Lunch Ideas for 10014?

Hi! I work in a weird area between Tribeca/Soho/West Village on Hudson Street between King and Charleton, just South of Houston Street. I am having major trouble finding good luck spots! There are some fast food chains and a handful of delis, but the only real options seem to be a long-ish walk away on Bleeker street. Anyone been in my shoes before, or have ideas for some good lunch ideas in this area? I usually bring food from home, but some days there's just not time...

Agave Expiration Date?

I have a bottle of agave nectar that I think may be pretty old. Like...maybe from 2005. Should I toss it? I can't find an expiration date on the bottle. What do you all think?
