Help with Brussels Sprouts

There's a wonderful recipe due to Mark Bittman (in the NY Times a month ago) for brussel sprouts, figs, and bacon. It's very good. We served it at Thanksgiving and several people who said they didn't like Brussel sprouts liked it.

Is dating a picky eater a dealbreaker for anyone?!


From your post, it seems clear that you care about food. If you think the BF is a keeper, you need to explain to him how important it is for him to try the foods you like. Marriages have lots of tough spots and if you're not in the same place food-wise (which you care about), it's tough to see how this relationship will work long-term. If he's willing to try things, but still doesn't like it, that's one thing. But it sounds like you're a long way away from that place.

Cook the Book: Italian Plum Cake

I made this recipe and while delicious, the cake was very dense. I also make Marrian Burros' plum cake, which is similar but quite light. Combining the two recipes (the ingredients are almost the same), I got an even better plum cake. The almonds in the above recipe really improve the cake.
