Cook the Book: 'The Food Life'

Raleys and Trader Joes: the former because of the location, products and friendliness of the staff and the latter because of the even better products.

Cook the Book: Serves One

Usually a pasta dish of some sort with a salad, bread and a glass of wine to accompany the meal. Always eaten at the table with a place setting, a good magazine and the Sirius classic jazz channel in the background to help me linger over my meal.

Ice cream from my childhood and nowadays, it's tomatoes.

How many stores do you shop at for your food?

Two: Raleys and Trader Joes-both once/week. And of course, the farmer's market every Sunday.

Would you rather give up chocolate or cheese?

No brainer: chocolate. I love any and all types of cheese but chocolate I can easily do without.

Cook the Book: 'Vegetable Harvest'

Since my lovable 67 pound labrador likes to eat my tomatoes, I have no other choice than to buy them, and all other produce, at the farmer's market. However, I do grow basil, sage, rosemary and mint; herbs that in my opinion, go with just about anything regardless of the season.

July 4th picnic. I'm taking______

I have been tasked to bring the tortilla roll-ups: cream cheese mixed with Hidden Valley Ranch salad dressing mixed, combined with minced black olives, pimentos and diced green onions. Spread on a tortilla, roll it up and then slice it into small bite size pieces. Not fancy, just good eats.

Cook the Book: 'The Silver Palate Cookbook, 25th Anniversary Edition'

It would have to be the Joy of Cooking. My husband got it for me as a gift years ago before we were married and it's been a go-to reference book ever since.

Cookbook Giveaway: 'A Twist of the Wrist'

Canned beans and dried pasta are staples in my pantry and show up in my cooking on a weekly basis-oftentimes together! The beans and/or pasta are used as a side dish mixed w/herbs and olive oil or as a base for meat based dishes.

Question of the Day: How do you store your butter? In the fridge, out on the counter?

Both as well. If I'm going through a period where I am spreading alot of butter on things such as bread and the like, then I'll always have a stick sitting out on the counter. But, I always have some in the fridge as well for baking.

Do you know how to use chopsticks?

I am horrible at chopsticks and at times it can be quite embarassing. I did manage to make it through an entire meal at Nobu 57 though w/out needing to use a fork that the server graciously brought over. But I know my technique is not the proper way.

Question of the Day: Who does the grocery shopping in your household?

I do 99.9% of the grocery shopping in my household. Case in point: on Tuesday, my husband ran to the store to get some last minute items that we needed for our fish tacos (had everything except the all important tortillas). He remarked when he got back, "wow, they remodeled in there didn't they?"
They did so about a year ago. DOH!!
