    Posted on Friday December 4th, 2009 at 07:48 in recipes, gadgets, processed food, cooking at home

    I had difficulty deciding whether or not to write about this topic. (Yep... I went back and forth a few times.) Kelloggs’ Eggo waffles are expected be in short supply from now through mid-2010, due to flooding and equipment breakdowns at two of th...

  • A matter of taste

    Posted on Tuesday December 1st, 2009 at 08:49 in chemicals, processed food, cooking at home
