Triumph - made a picture perfect apple pie (so beautiful we should have photographed it) for Thanksgiving and my family -- usually quite pleased with bakery or even supermarket pie - agreed that homemade really was better!

Graffeo. No competition. Buy the dark roast beans and drink it black, served with something rich and sweet, say the truffles from Xox Truffles across the street. http://www.xoxtruffles.com/framepage.htm
Drink, eat and be happy

Turf War: Boston's Best Ice Cream

Christina's is the best hands down. Everything is fresh and mind-blowingly delicious. Concord grape sorbet (available every fall for about 12 days) is superb. Christina's burnt sugar is the definition of "grown-up food." When I was recovering from a broken ankle, a take-out pint worked better than any of my meds. I went in there a few weeks ago hankering for a root beer float, but no-go. They don't sell root beer. Herrell's on Dunster St in Harvard Sq makes a great root beer float and now and then they have a flavor called "butter and sugar." Don't ask. Just eat it.

Where do you find your cookbooks?

Tell people of your cookbook obsession. Several times friends and family members have offered me old cookbooks when they are cleaning out. They just want to know they are going to a good home.

Antique stores - often have cookbooks from 40s through 80s - all very affordable

Going to San Francisco. Any great dining suggestions for a foodie?

Agree with Greens - I eat there everytime I visit SF (2-3 times per year.) Staff is a little "above it all" and often slow but the specials and desserts are glorious. Seriously consider getting a takeout vegan cupcake from the counter on your way out the door. 5 hours later you will want it. They serve Graffeo coffee which is heavenly drunk black. I buy beans at Graffeo in North Beach when I visit

I made walnut brownies with walnuts that had secretly gone bad...it was a giant inedible pan of musty, nasty brownies. Sick and so, so sad.

Cook the Book: 'Mrs. Rowe's Little Book of Southern Pies'

As a kid, my best friend and I made sugar cookies. She read the ingredients as I incorporated them. She read off 1/4 cup of salt, I then asked her if she read that right because that was a lot of salt. She insisted she was correct and I added that amount in. Once the cookies had baked, we couldn;t wait to try them, we each took a bite and spit them out. She was wrong, it was 1/4 tsp salt!
