Every time I head to a steak house for a taste of some delicious steaks, I end up miserably, because I can not order it in the proper way. The first day I ordered steak that should be well done and what I got in my plate proved too chewey for the capacity of my teeth and it also seemed to me too dry. The next time I was in a rather chic restaurant and ordered a plate of beef steak without specifying anything. Then I did not know that if not specified, these beef houses cook the beef to a medium ... more...

Ask some of your friends, colleagues or relatives about their favorite sea food and is in the ninety nine percent cases the answer would be LOBSTER.

My involvement with food began at an early age. Eating to survive was a given, but my mother gave new meaning to the word "delicious" during the holiday season. This is when she would cook cookies, cakes and pies for Christmas celebrations. My favorite though was her boiled custard! There was a silent contest each year between my mother and my Aunt Helen as to who had the best tasting boiled custard. None of us would declare a winner for fear the loser wouldn't make the dessert ... more...

A table of bbq times is of necessity only approximate. While you can spent money on fancy thermometers and grill testers, it isn't always as clear cut as you might think. There are other variables, less easily tested, that can make two seemingly identical cuts of meat grill at different times - exact thickness, texture, age, and temperature of the raw meat. That being said, BBQ timing is everything. There might be only a minute or two between a moist and tender steak and dry, tough ... more...

A baby shower is a kind of party that celebrates and welcomes a new member to the family.

Baby showers are generally held in the later stages of pregnancy (in the last 2 months, for instance). There are, however, certain cultural beliefs that make... more...

No matter what time of year it is, potatoes are always an excellent staple to have in your household. Wait until they go on sale at your local grocery store and stock up. Store your potatoes in a dark, dry area to prevent the "eyes" from sprouting and they will last longer. The best reason for having potatoes on hand is that they are extremely versatile as well as filling. For example, a simple side dish to make (and perhaps the most common) is mashed or creamed potatoes. Although... more...

Nothing says summer like a good old down home barbecue. Just the thought of one brings back fond memories of smelling burgers on the grill, chasing after lightning bugs and a great fireworks display.

Some of these activities include croquet, badminton, horseshoes and maybe a not so friendly game o... more...
