Ever wonder how long that fish sauce is good and safe to eat? Exactly how do you know? Well... I threw mine out because I had no idea, and then I came across this website:

This challenge, thanks to Walter's suggestion, has been great fun! It has re-ignited my love of food and cooking.

I have collected the various cooking magazines (Gourmet, Bon Appetit, Food and Wine, Saveur, Chili Pepper) for many years... some from the mid-1960's when my love affair with food began in earnest.
You can never have too many baskets or cookbooks and my extensive collection of cookbooks, magazines, clipped recipes and hand-written recipes from friends and family will always be a source of joy and enlightenment.

With this in mind... I wish y'all "Bon Appétit!"
You are always welcome to sit at my table and share whatever I am cooking at the time!
