Way to miss the point, San Francisco State University. The computer science department can’t take over a webcam? It would be a charming addition to their Facebook page, yet they can’t see the opportunity that’s right in front of them. Bragging rights alone is worth it.

I’ve been reusing the same plastic produce bags for over a year. I keep them folded inside a ziploc bag in my reusable grocery bag.

May I suggest: “The Enchanted April” by Elizabeth von Arnim. “The Magnificent Ambersons” by Booth Tarkington. Both made into movies, but there’s so much more in the novels.

I absolutely agree with you. I responded to the question posed by the article: “Would You Tell Your Kids That College Is Worth the Money?” I believe that all advanced education is incredibly valuable. It doesn’t have to be college-based. Education comes in lots of forms. Whatever advanced educational opportunity they…

Yes, because it’s not always about the money you will earn with a degree. Advanced education broadens your world, introduces you to differing ideas, teaches you to think critically. It should challenge and inspire you. It should show you things you may not have had access to before. You should leave with a broader…

Blintz vibes, indeed. My mom used to make these when I was little. A big ol’ dollop of her homemade strawberry jam on top.

Five slices (2 oz) looks like more on the sandwich. Two ounces is based on FDA suggestions for meat portions.

On a trip last year, I made DIY snack mix-almonds, parmesan crisps (find them in the produce section) peanuts and a small apple on the side. In the dairy section, I found string cheese and salami sticks, or those cheese/nuts/fruit packs. Sometimes granola or cereal makes a nice snack. I’m kind of addicted to…

Bestest Green Bean Salad

My Mom did this her whole adult life, my Dad continues doing it. I can still see her pulling the envelopes from her purse when we went to the grocery store, the kosher butcher, the drug store. That’s budgeting 101.

Some cannabis dispensaries do not take credit cards and have shady ATMs. My favorite bahn-mi joint (Cafe Bunn Mi) in San Francisco is cash only.

A dish towel for drying hands; a sponge (yeah, I know) for wiping up the random splash or drip; paper towels are for blotting wet food like chicken before seasoning (and are composted). All the old kitchen towels go in the rag bag for cleaning day. A roll of paper towels lasts me for months.

8 year olds in 1966 were not known for their sophisticated palates. Tastes change, memories are forever.

My grade school lunches consisted of pb sandwiches, I was a really picky eater. My favorite was pb, chopped celery & ketchup on white bread. Now, it’s pb, apple and bacon on whole wheat. To anyone who had a hand in its creation, thank you.

I don’t have “best,” but I sure have “memorable” sandwiches.

Ok, I’m going to share the greatest latke recipe, ever. I grew up in a Jewish family, decades of latkes. Mountains of potatoes, onions, eggs, flour have passed before me. Once I developed this recipe, I will never go back. I want easy, fluffy inside, shatteringly crunchy outside, minimum cleanup latkes.

Your headline is correct, your story is wrong. Don’t feel bad, nearly every media outlet is getting this wrong. The original blog post is here:

Or I could use a goddamn skillet.

Or I could use a goddamn skillet.

She uses finely grated Parm (looks like the stuff in the green can). After buttering (or mayoing) the bread, she sprinkles cheese on side 1, pressing the cheese to the bread. Flip, repeat. She also sprays the pan with no-stick spray.

My sister, who is a genius, coats the outside of her grilled cheese sandwiches with Parmesan before they go into the skillet.
