  How do I keep my full circle farm order from going bad so fast?

  2 0 Debbie Meyer Green Bags. I always thought they were an "As-Seen-On-TV" ripoff, but my roommate bought a box and they are amazing! Reusable and they really do extend the life of my veggies. You can pick them up at Fred Meyer and a few other markets around town, frequently they'll be displayed in the produce section.

  Can anyone suggest a really great,somewhat obscure restaurant where I could host a fancy pants dinner party for about 30?

  Is there an age when it's safe for kids to do long-distance running?

  What restaurants offer dining after 2 AM?

  2 0 My experiences (maybe ten by now?) at the Night Kitchen have always been stellar. Friendly service, GREAT food. They make fried broccoli that is amazing, and I'm not even that huge on broccoli. They even make thier own ketchup! I wonder what folks are complaining about? I didn't bother to look up the "awful reviews" you mentioned.

  Why are organic hops so rare?

  2 0 On the subject, but not in answer to your question, I know a great source for organic hops from Central Oregon if you want to brew with them. I see lots of organic beers (Green Lakes from New Belgium, and Hopworks IPA come to mind) but maybe I'm looking in different places? The North American Organic Brewers Festival might be of interest to you. http://www.naobf.org/ Certainly! answered in Grapes 'n Hops at Home about 1 year ago Answer, comment & read 2 more answers »

  What are your favorite food blogs? Why?

  0 0 My all time fave is David Lebovitz. He's the "Living the Sweet Life in Paris" guy and his recipes are always accompanied by little stories about when/why he made them. For anything Chinese, Steamy Kitchen is the way to go. Good pictures, clear instructions, delicious results. I also Simply Recipes, whole, nutritious foods, great use of seasonal fruits and veggies, and she links to other fun food blogs like Vanilla Garlic.
