Cookies can be health snacks

While the bounty of summer fruits has ended, dried fruits offer a healthy alternative and are a good choice when fresh fruits aren't available. Dried fruits are devoid of the water content that is so characteristic of fruits. Fruits are dried by drawing out the water content, either by sun-drying or using specialized machines.

Good time at Sparetime

Good time at Sparetime My first step into Sparetime left me somewhat taken aback by the austerity of the place. Considering its rep as the city's premiere craft cocktail establishment, my expectations ran to walls of art and comfy chairs. Instead, I found myself pondering the vibe perched on the edge of a not-that-comfortable bar stool. Then it hit me like a 106–proof whiskey. It's the perfect blank canvas to encourage conversation. The right style ...

Foodie

A platter full of food integrity Food integrity is food that is just damned solid and authentic. Think hand rolled tamales, a perfect poached egg – or a whole fried fish. While Smoke Station BBQ, 6724 Waters Ave., has attracted 'cue nuts for a while, a little known fact is that locally caught and fresh fish are prepared there – especially on Friday nights. Owner Matt Stallings mans the fryer and puts his heart and ...

Turkey vs. traditional meatballs

Any time I am invited to a party or potluck event that requires a dish, I almost always go with my "famous" meatballs and sauce. This no-fail dish always gets rave reviews from friends and family. Just last weekend I made up a Crockpot full to bring to a work function and they were a hit. I especially look forward to the part where I get to tell people that they are made with turkey ...

When told the Americans were hopelessly surrounded at Bastogne, Belgium, and ordered to surrender on Dec. 22, 1944, the 101st Airborne Division's acting commanding general, Brig. Gen. Anthony McAuliffe responded iconically to the German commander by saying, "Nuts!"
