hee--I used to have a pet tortoise and they are a hoot to watch while they're eating! And after mine ate a strawberry he would look like he had lipstick on ;)

Sourdough Doesn't Always Mean 'Good'

First of all, I take a lot of offense at the "good bread being particularly hard to find in SF" comment...wha? As other have mentioned, there is plenty of great bread to be found here. Maybe there is a lot of sourdough being "pushed" (including the airport of course) but jeez, that doesn't mean there's a dearth of any other kind of bread. And personally I love sourdough, for the record :)

Cook the Book: Lidia's Italy

I love making risotto. It's not that hard but people are always impressed. I guess it's because of all the stirring! And of course it tastes sooo good!

Cadbury creme eggs! And a close second would be good old, non-gourmet jelly beans.

Cook the Book: 'Alone in the Kitchen with an Eggplant'

definitely pasta. I can mix it up so many ways, and then have leftovers for lunch the next day.

Cook the Book: 'Vegetable Harvest'

I wish I could grow peas...I loved eating them straight out of the pod when I was little. And tomatoes. You can never have too many of those.

Definitely linguine with good, homemade basil pesto. It's been my favorite since I was little.

@bisbee don't be so lazy I opened up this U TUBE typed in turtle and wok and like magic it was the first result, would have taken the same amount of time to just look it up as it did to post a comment

I don't think I've ever seen a real turtle that is even cuter than Disney can imagine it. And that pure bliss smile........priceless. 'course, I would have fought it for that perfect strawberry, adorable or not. haha

Have you seen the clip, I think it's on youtube, of the male turtle in someone's kitchen who thinks that the upside down wok by the sink is a female turtle?
