I will be using a recipe that calls for 1/2 teaspoon of dried savory, I only have ground savory. How much should I use of the ground to equal 1/2 teaspoon of dried savory. Thanks

The heating element in the steamer has a lot of buildup on it and I don't know what the best way to clean it would be. Should I let some baking soda and water soak in the water reservoir or does anyone have a better way to clean a steamer?

I just don't understand the difference between these three items. Are they interchangeable based on preference, or do they each have very distinctive uses. I am frying chicken tonight and I don't know if I have to use oil in my pan or if I have to use lard. One other thing I would like to...

What makes me smile all the time is my beautiful doggy Lukka. She is a Caucasian Ovcharka and has personality to spare. Nine months old now and growing like a weed. A big beautiful fluffy weed.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. My deepest sympathy.

I for one am glad that fall is here. I can put up with the early darkness in fall and then the snow in winter and the awakening of nature in spring, however the heat of summer is something that I dread. Perhaps this isn't as much a vote for the fall season but a vote against summer.
