Although summer is nearing its end and school has begun again, the current weather is in denial of these facts. With temperatures in the mid-90s yesterday and today and staying that way for a few more days, it feels more like the middle of July.
As a person who has seasonal food preferences, the heat of summer spurs my craving for ice cream. While I could eat ice cream daily, I treat it as an indulgence and enjoy it a few times throughout the summer. However, since I treat it as an indulgence, when I do eat it, I indulge! No

My husband and I have a variety of shared interests and hobbies, one of which is cooking. However, on a typical day it is difficult for both of us to be able to work on a meal together. Between work demands and parenting responsibilities, it seems that one of us is busy when it's time to prepare food. So, when we do have time to cook together, we enjoy it thoroughly.

As Think Tasty has been conducting polls seeking the best restaurants in regions across the USA, we have discovered many exciting and interesting restaurants and chefs.

The combination of a fabulous location, historical building, great food, and talented chef was all we needed to learn more about this restaurant and its chef, Paul Gelose.
Paul has always been interested in cooking. He started cooking at the age of 16 at Henry’s Hamburgers in upstate New York but had been cooking at home

Bagel Guillotine by Larien
by TT August 23rd, 2010 | Equipment Reviews
All four of our children enjoy bagels. It's not uncommon to see a bagel being toasted for breakfast or lunch on any given summer day. Some of the time we stock our pantry with pre-sliced, packaged bagels, and other times we have either homemade or bakery bagels, which need to be sliced.
As all of the kids are old enough to make their own bagels to their liking, we thought it would be best to buy some sort of bagel slicer to make that part of the meal preparation easier. This purchase would eliminate the need for a cutting board
