...Christmas cookie event, because there probably was not mid-year cookie baking taking place. I hope Shelby holds on to our baking memories as she grows up. The beginning of this cooking fiasco is putting on the proper attire. There are two beige aprons that hang in our kitchen. A red and black swirl design screen printed on the front surrounds the word “Mommy” on mine, and “Me” on hers. They were a gift from one of Shelby’s schoolteachers. She typically hands me mine, we both put them on and she waits for me to tie hers behind her back. Shelby would cook every meal with me if I let her. Unfortunately, cooking with my child is not conducive to efficient meal preparation, or edible meals for that matter. Now that we are properly dressed, we collect all of our ingredients. We get from the pantry, the flour, white and brown sugar, salt, and baking soda. Then we open the refrigerator to get the eggs, and retrieve the vanilla from the spice rack. We set it all out on the gray Formica kitchen counter, get out all of our measuring cups and spoons, two large bowls, a spatula and the Kitchen Aid mixer. The mixer is housed in the pantry and collects dust until we are ready to bake cookies. The absurd weight of a Kitchen Aide Mixer, the lengthy clean up and...

...Johnny st.hilaire My Dream House Johnny st.hilaire My Dream House ` DREAM HOUSE My dream house, what would it be what would it look like it, and most important where will I build it. I like the countryside wide open areas, maybe farm lands with some animals. But I do like the city life with the nose, rude people, and heavy traffic on the high way. There is pros and cons to both environment, the countryside close to no air pollution, but less services you need to travel more to access services. The pros and cons of the city life more cultural opportunities, more diversity of people, more opportunities for higher education, better services like trash collection, water and sewer, cons more crime, more pollution, higher costs living. So as you can see I am little undecided about my dream house so. I am just going to explain two type of dream houses and locations one countryside and one in the city. First the city it would most likely be in Broward County a lake front home of course “I love water”. It would be 3 story house because it’s very hard to build full basements here. So one of the floors would be more like a half basement because the property will have a 3 car garage. The outside of the house would be a dark brown wood siding, and then a simple rock base that goes up about 1 feet on the house to give the old house effect. The side facing the water would be all glass so we can always look out to the gorgeous...

...Kitchen Design Decide on a design when you prepare for a commercial kitchen renovation. Look at your menu and determine your design budget. Plan your project with an understanding of your work flow, which can set the tone and mood of your staff. Aim for the best kitchen flow to make the best use of staff time and create a positive and organized workplace. You may use an assembly-line approach to kitchen traffic because you'll be using the same food preparation methods daily. Speak with a professional commercial kitchen consultant about your vision and budget. Some of the topics to discuss include proper lighting, equipment and ventilation. Seek written proposals from three to five commercial kitchen consultants. Kitchen Equipment Prepare a list of your desired kitchen equipment, including cost estimates and frequency of use. Your kitchen equipment will include preparation and work tables, refrigerators and freezers, and pots, pans and other cooking implements. Renovate your commercial kitchen to maximize the efficiency of your space. You can place your preparation and work tables along the kitchen walls, on an island, or use a combination of the two. Consider how many pieces of food equipment you need to purchase and how you will store the equipment. A kitchen of 100 square feet or less can use a 2-light fluorescent; up to 250 square feet takes a 4-light fluorescent. Larger than 250 will need the 4-light plus additional lighting.

...Magic in the Kitchen My wife has a new hobby: baking. Since I bought her Vitamix, a heavy duty blender, she is so in love with it that she bakes even twice a week. I need to say that for the person who has never done this before, she is doing really well. So I decided to watch her make my favorite cranberry walnut bread (which technically tastes like a cake so I am not sure where that "bread" word comes from). It is a Friday evening when she decides to prepare this delicious bread so we can have it for our breakfast the next morning. I am sitting by the kitchen's island quietly taking notes and ensuring her that I will make the next cranberry walnut cake on my own. It is pretty late, almost bed time but she seems full of energy. The snow is snowing heavily and I can hear the snow plough working outside. The kitchen’s island is her favorite place to prepare food and it is also the closest place to the fridge and the pantry. The kitchen cabinets are grey at the bottom and white on top. They have long and wide silver handles. The white quartz countertop shines like she has just polished it. Vitamix is right on top of the cabinet to the right from the island. It is a gigantic mixer, black and silver, with a plastic container. Then, she turns on the Pandora radio to her favorite “Gotan Project” station, pours a glass of Spanish red wine and she starts to do her magic. The first thing she does is to open the Vitamix's cookbook. She stores it along with...

...A kitchen is a room or part of a room used for cooking and food preparation. In the West, a modern residential kitchen is typically equipped with a stove, a sink with hot and cold running water, a refrigerator and kitchen cabinets arranged according to a modular design. Many households have a microwave oven, a dishwasher and other electric appliances. The main function of a kitchen is cooking or preparing food but it may also be used for dining, food storage, entertaining, dishwashing and laundry. The evolution of the kitchen is linked to the invention of the cooking range or stove and the development of water infrastructure capable of supplying water to private homes. Until the 18th century, food was cooked over an open fire. Technical advances in heating food in the 18th and 19th centuries, changed the architecture of the kitchen. Before the advent of modern pipes, water was brought from an outdoor source such as wells, pumps or springs. Antiquity[edit source | editbeta] The houses in Ancient Greece were commonly of the atrium-type: the rooms were arranged around a central courtyard for women. In many such homes, a covered but otherwise open patio served as the kitchen. Homes of the wealthy had the kitchen as a separate room, usually next to a bathroom (so that both rooms could be heated by the kitchen fire), both rooms being accessible from the court. In such houses, there was often a separate small storage room in the back of the kitchen used for storing food and kitchen...

...but without one simple step to this mouth-watering medley it just wouldn’t be the same. To make monkey bread you want to initially make sure you have all your ingredients; which might mean taking a quick trip to the store. Most of the common household things you won’t need to pickup up: such as margarine, sugar, cinnamon, pam (or your choice of cooking spray), a pot, wooden spoon, bunt pan, and a platter to put your finished product on. Unless you’re running low on any of these items, the only things needed from the store are a can of Grand’s Flaky Layer biscuit’s and a can of Grand’s Home-style Buttermilk biscuit’s. Once you have obtained your ingredients and materials, you want to open up both cans of biscuit’s and preheat the oven to 350 degrees so that it is nice and warm by the time you are ready to use it. With the biscuits you just opened, you will also want to mix up about two cups of cinnamon and sugar. Once you have that mixture as you like, you can begin cutting up the biscuits. You want to cut one biscuit from each can into bite size pieces and place them both in the cinnamon and sugar. The cinnamon and sugar should be in a big enough bowl that when you go to coat the biscuits you just placed in there it won’t get all over the floor. Now place your biscuit pieces in the bunt pan, which should be lightly coated with your cooking spray. Following that, take the left over cinnamon and sugar and measure it out; normally you end up with approximately one...

... Corey Hall 9/21/11 Jordan and I were playing hide and seek. He was seeking and I was hiding under my aunt's bed. I could hear my aunt calling for Jordan to come into the kitchen, so I followed him. Peeking around the corner, I could see a short, slim black women sitting in a chair at the kitchen table. When Jordan entered the kitchen she motioned for him to take a seat in the chair across from her. I could hear her asking him questions about his mom and things that had happened to him. They talked for about thirty minutes the she and my aunt exchanged words in private. Then my aunt turned to tell Jordan to get his belongings because he was going with the lady in the kitchen. I had a funny feeling the entire time the lady was talking to my cousin. I could tell something wasn’t right, because we never really have company and when we do they always tell us kids to go play. Today was different and I was scared of what would happen. As Jordan started to pack his things I started to cry. At the time I didn’t know why I was crying but it felt nesseccary. Once Jordan finished packing we took what seemed like the longest walk ever down the hall back to the kitchen where the lady was waiting to take my cousin away. "Ready to go?" Jordan didn’t respond he just turned around hugged me and said goodbye. I watched out of my grandparent’s window as the lady and my cousin disappeared down the porch into the dark...

...China, Made in Japan, Made in Mexico”. Very rarely will I pick up a piece of packaging and notice the word Canada. These days, so many of the products we use daily are made overseas. Unfortunately thriving nations such as Canada and the United States take advantage of developing countries. Looking at China specifically, they are abundant in natural resources and they have a high population. This allows them to produce high-tech products at low-budget prices. I feel I take these things for granted. I use these things every day and not once have stopped to think of where they come from. To continue, one of my favourite things to do is cook. I’ve been in the kitchen with my mother as long as I can remember. We make lasagna, carbonara, arancini, tiramisu, cannoli – the list goes on and on. Clearly, a common trend in our kitchen is Italian food. Not only is it delicious, but it is one more way I see myself connected to...
