    Do you know how to use chopsticks

    Yep! I know how to use them. I have acquired quite a modest collection of them too, now on display in my main dining room -- from standard Chinese to Mongolian to the tall cooking chopsticks.

    What do you do with used oil from a fryer?

    When I am done with mine, I put it in a plastic bag and throw it in the big bin. Or I pour it out in the corner of my backyard amongst the rocks away from where my dog can get to it.

    Travel Junkies (and dreamers!) Unite!

    Ever been to Melbourne (Australia)??? You'll find a lot of friendly people over there, no sweat at all. My DH is the 'merican side of our union.

    How do you learn to cook?
