The best way to decide what you need in your kitchen is to first
decide what it is you are going to be cooking in there. The best
suggestion I ever heard on this matter is to find five dishes
you really love. The dishes you like to find on menus at
restaurants. The next thing you want to do is learn to prepare
those dishes to your standards. This is going to take some time,

delicate matings as Seven Happiness, a dish that includes
shrimp, ...

British cuisine has always suffered from bad press. The simple
homespun fare and plain preparation of most traditional British
foods pales when compared to French haute cuisine, and it's not
uncommon for food critics to sound almost apologetic when
writing about traditional British dishes as if there were
something shameful in enjoying a good, thick joint of beef with
an accompaniment of Yorkshire pudding. If they speak in glowing
terms of anything at all, it is a nod to the clever naming ...

"Tis the season for venison!
Hunting season opened the week before thanksgiving in Virginia.
Since we are in North Carolina, why does it matter when hunting
season opened in Virginia? I was born and raised in Virginia. My
