    Can I roast some Habaneros indoors?

    Its not the cutting so much as when the lunkhead rubs their eyes without washing their hands for 10 minutes.... lets just say.. not only can the feel the fire in their eyes, you can see it literally!

    What Does the "B" Mean on my Henkel Knife?

    B=Blem/Blemish. could be as minor as the printing is not aligned correctly, maybe a nick in the handle or blade. could be as bad as the blade edge was ground wrong and unrepairable for the what its worth to them.

    Cookbook Software

    Personally i'd recommended getting as far away from MS Access as possible if this is anything beyond personal use. its a lousy database, fraught with problems of its own. the media mangament software i use left it in favor of SQL. Tried to use Access for a senior project in college. under light...

    I Need Some Inexpensive Cookware

    Do you have a Discover credit card? if so.. look at your current cashback rewards, you can turn them in for giftcerts to many places. Bed Bath'n'Beyond is one.. if you have enough you can make a nice Calphalon set cheap out of pocket.

    Coffee Grinds down the drain or no?

    Coffee is no sort of cleaner, the grains will either scrape things off or get caught in them when they are rubbing the pipe walls. those just a bit further in will do zero either way.

    What is the worst pizza you have had?

    Papa Johns is a love it / hate it pizza. they have a different sauce flavor that either you like or don't. I do find Pizza Hut overly greasy. Worse ever.. a self blackend pizza. Forgot it was in the over and it turned into a crispy black board.

    ISO steak knives

    Avoid Chicago Cutlery's steak knives. they set my mom has started out nice and sharp.. within about a month... Dull. I need to take a steel to them and straighten out the blade, then maybe sharpen them a bit. Toothed tipped blades are far better than straight blades so look for that as well...
