    Red or White Wine?

    I would choose to drink red wine if my life depended on it. Red wines have much more character, I think. I usually have a glass of red wine a day, but sometimes find myself with an empty bottle. I like to run and go to the gym so I try not to get drunk too much. :wink: Plus drinking other...

    Sad

    I can relate to that. 2 days ago, I got a bill in the mail for $3000, then I needed to go to the store but could not get a ride. Then I got a ride and managed to put together a meal to cook. Just as I was about to make it, husband called and said he would be at work all night, so...

    Accents?

    Yeah, they rub off on me. Sometimes I find myself talking broken english like my husband. I will be talking to my mother and I will say "Mom, I no understand nothing" instead of "I don't understand anything".

    Sad

    -DEADLY SUSHI- Why don't you try taking some aggression out by going to the gym? You may find a nice girl there as well. It will make you feel good, and look good too! Also, are there any classes you could take for fun? Anything you may have an interest in?

    Yes. That's what I meant, the pink stuff. So......let me know how it turns out. Also, how do you cook ginger? I love the stuff. I marinated some steak in a ginger sauce the other day. Sooooo good.

    My Mom's Soy Ginger Shrimps - Not for polite company

    No chunks. Completely smooth. And the flavor of the ginger? I'm not sure. Wait a sec, the ginger served with sushi, is that raw? The flavor in the butter is completely different than the ginger served with sushi. It must be cooked then. :)

    My Mom's Soy Ginger Shrimps - Not for polite company

    Well they served it with white rice. It was served in little bowls so I assume it is homemade, or bulk. It was one of those places where the chef cooks at your table, so the lady next to me says "I've been looking all over for this butter!" And once I tried it, I was sold. It looks like...

    My Mom's Soy Ginger Shrimps - Not for polite company

    Hi chopstix. I see you are from Asia. I was just wondering if you have heard of ginger butter. I had it at a Japanese steakhouse and I cannot find it anywhere, yet I am dying to have it. (It was sooo good) Just wondering if anybody knows how to make or if an Asian store would carry it.

    Grilled Artichokes with Basil Aioli

    The recipe uses big ones, but the aioli would be great with either. Cleaning an Artichoke Artichokes should be cleaned and trimmed before cooking. Artichokes turn brown when cut, but rubbing them with a fresh cut lemon or putting them in lemon water stops this process. So always have one of...
