I'm older and love to cook. When we were first married, we "invested" in some very high end "non-stick" pans. Worse "investment" we ever made. Still were able to use them, but they were never "non-stick".

A year and a half ago, perhaps longer, America's Test Kitchen made T-fal non-stick pans their highest rated…

Sorry, but considering the winter in this area I'm more inclined to buy this type of robot cleaning machine.

My funniest. Over two years ago my wife and I had to move my, then, 84 year old aunt in with us. She had never had high speed internet so she was enthralled by what she could do with things. Unfortunately, you can't manage someone 24/7.

She was going anywhere and everywhere and despite the protections built into the…

I'm surprised. My way they know who you are, so they can remove you. How do they know how to remove you?

Here's an easier way.

They all come with pre-paid envelopes. It costs these companies more to have that envelope returned than it does to send the mail out.

Simply take their letter, write across it, "Remove me from your mailing list" and send it back to them in their envelope.

It might take more than one time, but…

Whatever works for you. I was in sales for 30 years. I was a hiring manager for about 15. I've been a recruiter for 10. I've also gone through one of the larger outplacement firms.

All of that disagrees with having multiple resumes.

Again, if it works for you . . .

I disagree.

Having multiple, multiple resumes out there can cause you all sorts of problems. Typically, you'll get a phone call from someone if they're interested in you. You don't want to be stammering because you can't remember which resume you sent them. It makes people in the hiring process doubt your veracity.

I work in the food ingredient industry as a recruiter. The majority of slots that I fill are extremely technical. Even sales. Can't tell you the number of times I've had to educate an HR person on what the hiring manager is actually looking for.

I'm a recruiter. If I had to give one piece of advice, the biggest error that I see people make is listing job responsibilities rather than job accomplishments.

When you prepare your resume, you need to think about how you are better than the person who sits next to you who is doing the same job. Did you get any…

Hankigamus,

If you've got any type of e-reader, it's available electronically. It's the only cookbook that I'd buy in that format. I made the mistake of buying another cookbook as an e-book. It didn't have an index, so it made finding recipes for say chicken very hard. Will only buy cookbooks as a hard copy any more.…

I have "The Flavor Bible". It is excellent, but you probably are going to have to be a food geek to make it worth your while. In addition to giving you things that compliment each other, it also gives you what things are the best matches.

For each food item, it probably gives you 40-60 choices of other ingredients.

Som…

A well known US politician over the last few days.

On Sunday, they came up with this, "We don’t want nothing out of this debt limit."

Then yesterday we got, "We've never just done nothing."

Um drink whatever milk you want.

I had a friend who's two daughters were in the hospital for a week.

There were over 125 people in the area who died because of the milk.

Want to guess what the QA department in this private label milk company was like?

Sorry, but you are incorrect in your assumption that the name brand folks are producing the same products for private label. (I work in the food ingredient industry.)

#1 - Companies such as Kraft and Kelloggs are doing everything in their power to develop their products in such a way that the private label folks can't…

Another website for information about companies and their cultures is Glassdoor. Be sure to look at who is writing the review. Some times someone who is currently at the company will write these glowing reviews. Then you'll see a bunch of people who USED to work their who tell you how horrible the place is.

We don't get involved with recent graduates. The primary reason is that companies come to us looking for people with 10+ experience.

The best thing that I can tell you is to post your resume on Careers in Food and to monitor the IFT job boards.

Watch cartoons and children programs. They are going to have the simplest language!

I used to fly 100,000 actual miles per year. A few years ago a flight attendant wrote a letter to the editor complaining about the way people were dressing when the flew.

I'm sorry, but I am paying for my seat and to be treated not much better than a cow going to slaughter. Who am I on the plane to impress? The rude…

I want to go to that car lot. My guess is that the picture was taken late 70s, early 80s. My second guess is that there's probably 2 million dollars worth of cars sitting there.

The XKEs are worth 75-100,000.00 each. The Austen Healy 3000 is easily another 75,000. Don't know enough about Rolls to even guess that one.

The other person lasting less than a year tells you that you made the right decision.
