A screaming deal on TWO Calphalon nonstick omelet pans…. red hot… get ‘em right here!
I got this last week because 1) we eat eggs every day and 2) we’ve eaten all the nonstick coating off our other pans.
Scrambled eggs in a non-nonstick pan is miserable to clean. And so, now I don’t have to. These [...]

I’m still on the hunt for the perfect mixing bowl set.
I used to own one, a stainless steel set made by Farberware and included in my first set of cookware as a bonus. You can’t buy them separately now, and I’m not sure that you ever could, but I want them. And I can’t have [...]

Cooking as a team, just your computer and you, covered in Grandma’s famous spaghetti sauce from elbows to keyboard. Not your idea of a perfect cooking environment? Mine either. I love cooking from online recipes, but other than printing them out (waste of paper if you hate the recipe) or hauling your laptop into the [...]
I’m currently trying to eat more protein, because I know I don’t get enough and I’d like to have at least a tiny muscle left as I age. You know what I’m talking about… you’ve seen the old ladies that are so scrawny they seem like a brisk wind would knock ‘em down? I don’t [...]
If you have feet, you need this. Especially if you stand on them frequently. And I do. So I got this very mat, in truffle.
Here’s why it’s great:
it’s quite cushy because it has a gel core, so my bare feet don’t get sore or tired standing on hard tile
it’s fits perfectly in front of my [...]
For some people, eating wheat (and rye and barley) is not a choice. Their bodies can’t handle it. And this condition, whether it’s gluten intolerance or full-blown celiac disease, seems to be increasing in prevalence.
Let’s just stop and think about that for a minute. No hot bread, straight from the oven, slathered with butter, the [...]
We still have several more months before the abundance of fruit appears in our local grocery stores. I can hardly wait for the cherries.
Not the tiny little sour pebbles that are in the store right now, for $15 a pound.
Noooooooooooo. The sweet walnut-sized cherries from heaven… that’s what I’m talking about.
For now, we need to [...]
Imagine these at your next dinner party with a little liquor of choice (think: orange, lime, lemon) inside for dessert. Or, for the younger crowd, stuff them with peppermint ice cream and serve to the kiddos.
Or fill with cheesecake and plop a fresh raspberry on top. The possibilities are endless.
Cheers!

Although I’m certainly eating fewer bagels, like none, these days, my boys still love ‘em dearly. I do miss a nice toasted schmear with cream cheese. If only my body wouldn’t violently reject it. But no.
Anyway.
Real bagels, you know, the kind from the bakery, need to be sliced in order to be toasted. Have you [...]
My fantastic new oven burned me last week. Burned me bad. I still have the scar, although I’m sure, in time, it will fade, as my pain has faded.
Sniff sniff. Waaahhhhh.
Here’s what happened: I was minding my own business, removing a key lime pie from the second rack in the oven, when OW, @#$(*@(#*! , [...]
