I spent the past two days meandering through the San Francisco Winter Fancy Food Show. My friend and I ate our way through two giant buildings, filled with more chocolate and cheese than you could possibly imagine. Every once in awhile, a product would catch our eye and make us laugh out loud, temporarily distracting

If you’ve followed my blog more than a year you probably remember that I took part in The Flemish Primitives in Brugge in January 2009. The visit resulted in four blog posts (just in case you wonder what it’s all about): The Flemish Primitives: A travel report (part 1) , Chocolate surprise (part 2) , Heston Blumenthal (part 3) and Glowing lollipops (part 4)

Two important things about the preparation of meaty, tender, and juicy beef ribs: 1) Under no circumstance buy ones that have the meat between the ribs gouged out. That’s the best part ! 2) I separate into individual ribs before marinating and smoking. This allows the larger globs of fat to render out and accelerates even cooking

The gingerbread cookies pictured are made with ginger, cloves and cinnamon. I didn’t use ammonium carbonate as a leavening agent for these, so no amphetamines were created “in furno” in this case. But I’m sure the cookies can cheer you up anyway! A while ago I came across the article “Christmas gingerbread (Lebkuchen) and Christmas cheer–review of the potential role of mood elevating amphetamine-like compounds formed in vivo and in furno” ( abstract from NCBI, free full text pdf download from publisher)

Following on the One Dollar Diet Project ’s footsteps, Amy and Karla of Hope Heals:”Dollar-A-Day Challange” are attempting to eat on a dollar a day for a month in order to raise money for a trip to Africa with Habitat for Humanity. One point raised in the $1 Diet Project’s comments is that a dollar a day buys you more in those very countries where people live on that amount of money or less, countries such as Mexico. I was curious so I took Amy and Karla’s shopping list and compared it to the prices listed on Profeco’s website Quién es quién en los precios (who is who in prices) where they comparison shop a wide list of items.
Excerpt from:
Getting your dollar’s worth of food!
