My friend Emily invited over some Hyde Park ladies for a male-free evening of kirs and sushi prepared by the host herself (with a little help from the early arrivals, that is Mindy above.) Emily knows where to find some of the best fish in the city. My favorite rolls from the evening had eggplant […]

I would appreciate hearing about any problems viewers might have in different browsers. Thanks! no comments I had extra buttermilk on hand that I wanted to use up and I came up with this recipe to do so. Regular milk, sour cream, or yogurt could be subsituted if you don’t have buttermilk. I think any vegetables on hand would work well also. For this recipe I used broccoli rabe, the kernals […] show 2 comments That potato looks delicious! I am going to have to try that one! Thanks Michelle!

You and Cindy have another thing in common – you’ve both been cyber-pinged by a certain pregnant foodie!

kristina - i like the new layout. i love the sushi photos! :)
Tu Cong Van - sounds you had a good time and food looks great.
gemma - Thanks both of you!
Lise Sveen - I’d like to know the names of some fish sources in Chicago, please!
gemma - Hi Lise, she goes to Dirk’s Fish and Gourmet Shop on Clybourne.
Pam Zutell - Do you know where we can purchase the soda pop “Ting” that was so popular for 20 -30 years? It is bottled in the Waupaca, WI area, however, I cannot seem to find anyone who sells it for us to purchase. I would absolutly love hearing from someone who could let me know how to accuire this beverage sold in cases with returnable bottles. The soda is so good, less carbonation, less preseritives and takes like good old fashioned soda before everything was added to it. It would mean a great deal to us. Thank you.
gemma - Hi Pam. Do you live near Waupaca? If so you can go to the corner store in Rural that I mention in my post on Waupaca (you can find it here: http://probonobaker.typepad.com/probonobaker/2005/08/waupaca_2.html). I will email you this information too so I am sure you get it. Good luck. Ting is wonderful!
bonni - Hi,
You can also buy Ting at Cas Liquor in downtown Waupaca. I think it’s bottled in Shawano, Wisconsin.
Brian - You can also get Ting at a liquor store in Slinger on Hwy 175 accross from the post office
