With Thanksgiving just days away, the last
thing you need right now is another task, another recipe, another
thing to put on
your to-do list. But this is… Read More »- Let’s talk: Comment (0) | Blog

We all have one dish that says
Thanksgiving. For some it's canned cranberry sauce. For others
it's sweet potatoes topped with marshmallows. For me it's
my mom's chicken liver pate. Or maybe it's her oyster
dressing. Without either of those dishes, Thanksgiving wouldn't
be… Read More »

1. The Bigger the
Turkey, the Better When I was a kid, my mom took me to the
supermarket a week before Thanksgiving and let me pick out the
frozen turkey. I went for the one with the biggest breasts. Done
laughing? Here's the thing, the ones with big breasts don't

Thanksgiving is so close you
can almost smell the stuffing. If you're cooking the feast this
year, it's high time to get organized. By now you've

Dear BA Foodist,
Cooking Thanksgiving dinner puts me on edge. In addition to making sure that everything reaches the table on time and hot, there's wine to pour, silverware to set out, and children to watch. Got any suggestions for reducing stress on November 26?

Fall means the return
of puffy jackets, whiskey via a flask, World Series baseball, and
big name cookbook releases. The stack of new tomes in my office
toppled over several weeks ago--and new ones arrive in the mail
daily. So, which volumes are worthy of a spot on your sacred

Dear BA Foodist, I love
wine, but I hate buying it. Most wine stores, with their enormous
selections and often unknowledgeable staffs, can be intimidating.

Dear BA Foodist, Recently, I
was eating out with three friends. We had finished our desserts and
were chatting away when the manager told us it was time to leave.
Apparently, there was a group waiting for our table. What gives?
Can't I stay as long as I want? --Edmund Rutherford,… Read More »

It's always seemed a bit
silly to me that there are people who'll spend $5 a pound for
heirloom potatoes, $9 for four organic hot dogs, and $17 for two
pounds of grass-fed ground beef then opt for the corn syrup-filled
commercial brand of ketchup without hesitation. I should know
because… Read More »
