Subway Fiery Footlongs: Hot Stuff?

I would challenge anyone to buy deli meat (1/8 #) and some of all the veggies, the bread and the cheese for under four dollars. It would be close... I would rather just have them make me one...

Meet & Eat: Alton Brown

Love me some Alton! BUT!! He has an angry attitude on the new ICA competition and I dont like it. He seems mean to the contestants and it seems so phony. Such an act... I like the sweet OLD Alton. And he's too thin!

if you can choose a dish to represent your country

I am from the midwest (Indiana) and we cant live without our Tenderloins on Bun with lettuce ,mayo, sliced tomato and pickle. Served with Fries and a Coke. I think that it must be a regional thing because I have never seen it on a blog or featured anywhere actually. Are you kidding me? You dont know what your missing!!

I know it's an old wive's tale, but I _____ anyway.

We always have corned beef and Cabbage on New Years Day (so that we will be wealthy the rest of the year). It doesn't work, why do we keep doing it?? But we always throw a dime inside while its cooking. I dont know why because she would fish hers out before serving.

Salting pasta water is for flavor. You can add way too much salt if you wait until its cooked. Pasta is very difficult to get salty enough, I think.

Always throw salt over the left shoulder. Be careful in a restaurant! I have salted folks in nearby booths!

Healthy and Delicious: Confetti Quinoa Salad

I have never eaten Quinoa, but this looks so yum. I'm curious tho...I have read several recipes using Quinoa but have never seen one suggesting rinsing it off, remove the bitter coating. What is this coating (like a chaff?) and what if I dont get it all off? lol... Sorry...

Battle for the Seas: McDonald's Filet-O-Fish vs. Wendy's Fish Fillet

Healthytouch... Anderson Indiana, about a half hour northeast of Indy. Had a Rax the other day... Roast beef doesnt taste like it used to and I havent tried anything else. Used to LOVE me some Rax!!

Lemonfair... that flavor to me is "metallic" and I cant eat them for that reason. Wonder what that metallic flavor is?

McDonalds FOF is the best fish sandwich ever. The bun is soft, the fish is soft, the sauce is wonderful... the cheese is the icing on the cake (so to speak)!

Top 10 Tips For Better Cupcakes

When learning to cook from my Mommie, one of the first things I was instructed is to never "over mix" a cake batter. (or pancake, waffle, cornbread, etc..) As a matter of fact, my pancakes, etc... look VERY lumpy when I put them on the griddle. (they turn out great!)

My favorite part of the Thanksgiving meal...

old chef...you will be disappointed. Its just not the same. We tried that one year and it was such a letdown. Nothing beats the picking on the turkey later on in the afternoon, football in the background and laying on the couch after eating the third piece of pie!! You will be back home for Thanksgiving next year!

I went to Brooklyn (omg, really? I am in NYC???) with the love of my life and he brought me to Brennan and Carr and I thought I had died and went to heaven... I still tell everyone about that Roast Beef sandwich!
