What If You Drove Three Hours To A Penzeys . . .

and didn't buy anything for yourself!

I love Penzey's, and have shopped with them by mail for years. When they opened a retail store in an eastern suburb of Cleveland, OH it just added another bonus to our visits to our best friends in another Cleveland suburb (not that we needed one). But, as I did an herb/spice inventory, I found that I didn't need anything. So, we just bought some as gifts.

ETA: of course when we got home, I found I DID need one thing . . .

Things you won't find in my kitchen

Introducing the Dough-Nu-Matic Doughnut Maker, as featured in local holiday ads!





What a frakking waste! Money quote from my favorite Amazon.com review: It doesn't make doughnuts. It makes tiny blobs of burnt dough. Very greasy. Do not even bother with it - a complete waste of time.

Blogorroea II

It's been a month since I last blogged - it's the busy season - and I will catch up as quick as possible. Many exciting food adventures to share.

I have stopped blogging the Bills scores. It's too depressing and it ruins the appetite!
