Milk & More Store in Tempe

Friday, April 20th, 2012

Lynn from Goodyear with MaryAnne & Manny from Gilbert. What a fun coincidence!!

Lynn from Goodyear went on Thursday to the Milk & More Store  on Broadway & Hardy in Tempe and ran into MaryAnne & Manny from Tempe.  They called the show and I asked Lynn to take a picture of the three of them.  I don’t think they had ever met, but this is a fine group of wonderful people, now sporting strong bones from the calcium in the Cheese Curds, made fresh every Thursday.

How to make a turkey Tutorial

Sunday, November 20th, 2011

I found these great videos demonstrating how to make a turkey.  First I highly recommend brining the turkey, chicken or pork whenever you are going to make those meats.  Even if it is for an hour it is worth it.  You can flavor the brine the way you like. This video uses bourbon for the turkey, cool idea, you can also use citrus, spices etc.  Try and brine overnight.  Click on the photo to see the video. Read More→

This is the season and we have so many great local products for the Locavores (a movement of people that only eat sourced products from within 100 miles of their homes).  Yelp does a great job of listing these great places so check it out.
