    Santa Was Nice To Me - 10" Shun Kershaw Cook's Knife

    25 to 35 degrees? That is the angle advised for an axe...the chopping-down-trees kind of axe. I don't know what kind of food you are cutting in your kitchen, but I would much prefer to use one hand and a slicing motion, rather than a two-handed swing to chop my Vidalia onions. 19 degrees is...

    ISO What to do with bay leaves

    Try Richter's Herbs online. I was just directed there today by the local Herb Society of America representative. I was sad. I was hoping to find somewhere more local that had a plant for sale that was a little more established, maybe 2 or more feet.

    Cutting Boards

    Knife Scraping (shiver) Scraping a knife across the cutting board is the most damaging thing you could do to your precious implement, short slicing off your cabinet handles. The thought of it makes my skin crawl. LOL I use a Bash-N-Chop, named by the Galloping Gourmet, Graham Kerr, instead...
