These are also super good, if you don't mind the slight coronary from eating a palm-sized dessert that weighs in at almost 400 calories apiece... ----------------------------------------------------------------- Tres Leches Coconut Macaroons 1.2 kg sweetened coconut flakes...

Saw this one on the TV Show "Chef At Home" and it's always a hit with guests. Plus you can make it ahead and fire it in the oven during your meal - bonus! --------------------------------------------------------- Chef At Home's Perfect Pineapple 1 fresh pineapple, peeled, cored and...

I haven't used one in years; I always found the bread to be heavier than a box of feathers coated in lead; it's hard to describe unless you hold one from a breadmaker in one hand and one in an oven in your other hand, but the weight difference, despite using the same amount of ingredients, is...

I'm actually glad we don't eat out anymore. When I worked at Radioshack and you're in a huge mall with a food court, it can do a number on both your wallet and your gut size. Eating crappy food-court cuisine is very expensive (and unsatisfying) on a retailer's income.

karrie: I wish we even had chain-owned restaurants, in order to kick-start the local places into cleaning up their act. The closest thing to chain is a Robin's Donuts that was renovated from an old garage. The drive through just goes around the yard, and you can still see where the garage door...

Being serious for a moment, I rarely eat out, if for no other reason than the restaurants here are few in number and poor in quality. There's two really expensive but very crappy pizza places, a really crappy Chinese place that serves prefrozen boxed Chinese food, a "coffee shop" that serves...

I eat out sometimes, but only when my wife is in the mood.

He's a lucky, lucky guy.

Best bet, for herbs, buy fresh and chop finely, if available, especially for things like dill and bay leaves. For spices, buy the whole spice (usually seeds) from and use a $20 coffee grinder (use one specifically for spices, or your coffee will taste like spice, and vice versa) to use what you...

Drying spices removes the essential oils and moisture from them, which carry almost all of the original flavour of the spice. The quality of spices is different depending on the manufacturer and when and how it was dried. The dried ones at a speciality kitchen store far exceed those of the ones...

I've gotten to thinking lately about how the next election is going to shape up, and I would like to throw a question out there and see what those in the know think. In the last election, the breakdown of the popular vote was as follows: Conservatives 36.2%, Liberals 30.2%, Bloc 10.5%, NDP...
