2. A bag of bagels.
3. A bag of crushed ice.
4. Regular cube ice
5. Assorted frozen foodstuffs in boxes

Five items in my closet.

All I have in my real closet is clothes and shoes. Boring! So let's look in the junk closet, shall we?

1. My "Laura Palmer" Halloween costume from last year, which I never got to wear, so I'm saving it for this year, unless I think of something cooler.

4. CDs to sell to Amoeba
5. Lots of purses.

Five items in my car.

3. A flyer from some kabbalah person.
4. Various parking stubs from the downtown courthouse.
5. All kinds of survival stuff, so I can live when the apocalypse comes, or my car breaks down in b***f*** nowhere.

Five items in my wallet.

2. Change.
3. Credit/ATM Cards
4. Referral card for fabulous wonderful little hairdresser, in case anyone needs a cut or color.
5. Various other cards and receipts.

INFO: How to Dry Tomatoes

It's the end of summer and tomatoes are everywhere. Lovely round red tomatoes and multi-colored lumpy misshapen heirloom tomatoes and cute little cherry and grape tomatoes and oblong, flavorful roma tomatoes. And along with the tomatoes, tomato recipes abound. Capreses and salads and sauces and sandwiches--it seems impossible sometimes to find a dish that DOESN'T have tomatoes in some form. So what's a girl to do when tomatoes are everywhere and ... she hates tomatoes? Why, dry the tomatoes of course! Dried tomatoes are so very different than fresh tomatoes. So different as to be a different fruit altogether. And I like dried tomatoes.

I am not an expert who is going to make beautiful and amazing and complicated dishes to "wow" you. I am, in fact, quite the opposite. I am a total beginner. I've always lived in places with miniscule kitchens and concerned myself with schoolwork and studying and working and not paid the least bit of attention to what I was eating every day. And that's what this blog is all about. It's about me learning where my food comes from, how to make it properly, and how to enjoy it to the utmost. It's no fun to learn by myself, so I started the blog to keep track of what I learn, kind of like a...
