  1. I've had a lot of success packing the falafel tightly in a 1 ounce scoop. I don't add bread crumbs or potato or egg, just coarsely ground chickpeas (dry, then soaked overnight) with seasonings. I find if I don't pack the balls tightly, then there can be a problem with breakage. It's also better to have a mixture that is slightly dryer, versus a more wet mix. The scoop also makes them evenly sized, which helps in getting them all browned at the same time. Mmmm....now I've got a hankering for falafel and tahini sauce!
  2. Now, see - that takes two of my very favorite things, cheesecake and fried anything, and puts them together. I'd guess it would be sheer heaven.

  4. Screw subltety. I make a wish list of exactly what I'd like, affix with a magnet to our refrigerator, and reap the rewards come Christmas or birthday time. My husband will do pretty much anything to keep the great meals coming ;-)
  5. I currently have 87, but I recently pared down to just the ones I use constantly, since we have limited shelf space - even with a bookcase just for my cookbooks. Can't even express how sad it is to give one away
  6. Wow - now I want to move! Here's what I would pay for the same. I live at the southeastern edge of Los Angeles county, BTW: 30 limes - 3/$1.00 at the local asian market = $10 3 pounds (really nice) new white potatoes - .69 a pound, same place = 2.07 20 packages Maruchan Ramen Noodle Soup Mix (He likes them) - $3.00 per case 6 fresh flour tortillas - $1.00 5 lbs. sugar - $2.50 3 ears corn - $1.00 1 can Jumex Plum Nectar - ? If it's anything like Kern's, it'd be around .80 for the can So a total of just over $20 for me, too - and I am an incredibly frugal shopper (I spend less than $75 a week on food for a family of four).
  7. S'Mores! The ultimate demise for a Peep. Tasty, twisted, and fun
