Dinner Tonight: Soy-Marinated Grilled Pork Tenderloin

Looks wonderful! I do something similar but with maple syrup instead of sugar and red chili flakes - no cumin or cilantro.

Frozen Shrimp: To Use or Not to Use?

Does anyone know how long frozen shrimp is kept frozen before being sold? Is shrimp that's sold as "fresh" frozen for a shorter period of time than shrimp sold while still frozen?

New Tazo Tea Lattes at Starbucks: Thanks, But No Thanks

I tried one last week and was pleasantly surprised, but maybe the barista was a little more skilled. While I won't go out of my way to get one again, I have taken to making them at home with my own loose leaf tea blends and steamed milk. I never thought about adding hot milk to tea, but it really mellows the tea without cooling the drink too much.

Cook the Book: 'Baked, New Frontiers in Baking'

Every summer when I visited, my aunt would make deep fried balls of dough with powdered sugar, called zeppolis.

I made them once for my husband and I - we devoured them and spent the rest of the evening in a near coma. I am not allowed to make them anymore.

I'm in South Florida where it's still in the mid-80s, so I've got to go with Pumpkin-Spiced Kulfi with Caramel Popcorn. Sounds like a great blend of summer and fall...

One Trick Pony Restaurants

Some college kids in Miami opened The Cereal Bowl across from UM. You can actually add things like Snow Caps and Marshmallow Fluff to Frosted Flakes. I'm slipping into a diabetic coma just thinking about it...

But I agree with PerkyMac - Lemons. Yum!

Time for a Drink: Monkey Gland

Wow. That looks really lovely. Not too sweet, and with the herbal bite of absinthe to balance the grenadine. Definitely one to try soon.

Valentine's Day Chocolate Giveaway

I am an unabashed lover of milk chocolate. Oh, I know the dark stuff is good for you, and it's pretty tasty, too, but nothing compares to the way milk chocolate melts on your tongue.
