know this because we were seated right under it…i.e. next to the kitchen. At first I felt I should be upset about this, but honestly, I really didn’t mind. In fact it was the only table for two anyway, and we got to see...

was there a couple of years ago. although our waiter was warm and attentive, a young man and his girlfriend were not so lucky. i guess the man had chosen a combination of food (from the menu, mind you) that was...

Not anal: use the microwave for a lot of things that I’ve learned over the years (baked and mashed potatoes, steamed fish, cornstarch and water base for quick thick white sauces (for my home alone foods), burgers or rice...

into the disposal. So, I honestly thought, well, someday I will laugh about this and tell my grandchildren, or a priest, (like, if the guy died from foodpoisoning, but i don’t have meat in the house so no chance of some...
