This weekend's Cooking Tip

Lettuce keeps better if you store in refrigerator without washing first so that the leaves are dry. Wash the day you are going to use.

Any others?

McDonalds Big Macs taste the best at 11:am right after they switch from the breakfast menu to the daytime menu

I always use the instant-read meat thermometer to monitor the temp of the houseboy. Well I would if I had a houseboy who could cook... or not.

I apologize to those who have noted a continuing theme in my posts. I tend to get into a rut.

Forget what Martha Stewart tells you. She's wrong!

Peel your hard boiled eggs while they are still warm and they'll peel like a Latino in heat.

Never put them on ice and chill them cold before peeling as Martha Stewart suggests. When you do, they end up looking like an acne pocked face on a young teenage runaway.

Sorry to all the teenagers out there. Been there! Nothin' but love for ya!

Making scrambled eggs for breakfast this weekend? Try putting a couple of large soup spoons of mayonnaise (I prefer Miracle Whip) into the pan and mixing it well with the eggs, milk etc. Taste to die for - not for the diet conscious.
