Brain Food, Anyone?
2008-06-20 08:01:00 While I normally do reviews for food products and the like, I was given the chance to try out several software titles geared toward building and maintaining intelligence. I'll be 40 in August, and while that itself isn't normally a concern as far as memory loss is concerned, I take care of 8 other people daily, and that coupled with age can wreak havoc on your mind.So, I decided I'd accept these games and give them a whirl. I really like these. I've sat here for several hours since I received them and played games, taken tests and learned.I took IQ and Career Aptitude tests and what I really like about them is you don't just get a 'right' or 'wrong' answer; you're actually told what the correct answer is and why. For an inquisitive type like me, that's a huge bonus. It also is fundamental to learning.Beyond Core Mind Builder and Core Mind Builder Pro, I also was able to test a copy of corefx Three Level; FUN! The kids are having a blast with this one. It takes basic compu...

Fighting the Funk - Making Good FUN Food
2008-06-09 16:22:00 If I had to eat boring salads everyday or “diet” foods, I'd go nuts. One way I find motivation is by getting creative in the kitchen and turning my trigger/nemesis foods into healthy fun options. My choice today, pizza, of course! I love pizza, I mean I really LOVE it. It's the one food item I have the hardest time saying 'no' to and if I say 'yes', I have a hard time stopping. Lost on a desert island? It's my choice hands down. On death row, my request? York Style pizza with extra cheese. I think you get the point. Well today I decided on a cross between my Provolone Pita Pizzas and Tortilla Pizza. I used a large whole wheat pita, leftover sauce, short cuts chicken, diced colored peppers and 1oz fancy shredded cheese. It was crispy, cheesy, yummy pizza goodness! I'm starting to feel better, can you tell? Notice the water jug, it's going down!

Doha Restaurants: Thai Snack
2008-06-09 07:00:00 Whenever I enter Thai Snack and breathe in I feel like I have been transported back to Thailand. The aromas are exactly the same as they are in Thailand. That's not surprising, as all the staff in this busy little restaurant are Thai too. Even the neon sign looks like it could come from a Thai high street, while the trees overhead remind you of the Asian jungle.Here you can enjoy a meal outside in the slightly run-down garden by the water fountain (at least in the cooler months), eat in the restaurant or order a take away. Although the restaurant is always busy, the restaurant and its Thai staff incredibly efficient and normally your order is ready within minutes. And the food is probably the best Thai food you are likely to get in Qatar, from the spicy tang of Tom Yam seafood to the sweet but delicious Pat Thai, which you can liberally sprinkle with crushed peanuts for that authentic Thai taste.The restaurant is located at the bottom of Al Nasser Street, close Ramada signals.

My Favorite Food Magazine
2008-06-08 17:16:00 I read a lot of food and cooking magazines and while I like many of them, I truly love Saveur. Here are just a few of the reasons why:1. They vindicate me and strip away my guilt;I can now proudly say that I have been washing mushrooms for years.I no longer feel like a lazy git for being happy about my Christmas gift of an Electric Carving Knife ('First' article by Dana Bowen).2. Their photos make me want to dive into the page and eat through to the other side.3. They scour the planet to come up with the most unusual out-of-the-way wonders ever.4. The cookbook reviews have caused me to buy several new books; this can be seen as good or bad, depending on my fiscal situation at the time.5. The recipes. I don't even know where to start. You must go and have a look for yourself. From the familiar to the obscure, and everything in-between.6. There is no fear in sharing recipes that use lard, publishing an entire issue about pasta, steak or butter, or revealing regional snacks that may...

News: Expensive Food, Poor Farmer.
2008-06-07 12:35:00 1. The global export food prices have been skyrocketing since months (Post)2. Combined with the raising fuel prices, it has caused - what is called - "A Global Food Crisis", urged by world leaders to be tackled urgently. (Post)3. The crisis has sparked the question if the world can produce enough food to feed itself and how we can find ways to increase crop yields. (Post)Yet, something is wrong with this picture... Take the case of Thailand:1. 3 billion people worldwide rely on rice as a staple food (Source)2. Thailand is one of the world's main rice exporters (Source)3. The price of Thai B grade rice, a widely traded variety, reached $795 per ton in April, an increase of 147 percent from a year earlier. Source)4.

Strawberry Lemon Thyme Shortcakes Inspired By "Comfort Food", A Novel
2008-06-07 01:16:00 Early last month, the lovely Cath from A Blithe Palate and Stephanie of Dispensing Happiness contacted me to see if I wanted to be part of a foodie book club they were creating, The Edible World. The premise: about twice a year, the book club readers would get a copy of a food related novel with the mission (to read it!), pick a dish mentioned in the book, find a recipe for it, make it and blog about it. Guess what I told them?! Count me in!!! I always need something to read on the treadmill and what better way to exorcise demons and calories than read about them, right?!!Comfort Food written by Kate Jacobs, relates the adventures in cooking and paths of self exploration of a 50 year-old tv cooking show host, Gus, whose ratings are suffering and who finds herself paired with a vibrant young Miss Spain turned culinary school graduate whose claim to fame are cooking snippets on youtube. Gus lost her husband early, taking care of her 2 daughters by opening a sandwich shop without prior...

Food on the table
2008-06-06 23:05:00 A heatwave has been hanging over Sweden lately. When the sun and warmth arrives the Swedes instinctively bring out their grills to eat outdoors among friends and family. You can feel the scent of grilled meat all over. Last weekend we actually grilled three days in a row and yesterday we did it again. A lot of meat but we did at least not grill any beef. We had chicken, salmon and pork.This evening I thought it was time for some vegan burgers again to compensate for the previous meat gluttony. I have been experimenting with different blends. Tonight's blend turned out to be the best one so far. These burgers were delicious!For the blend I used:red lentils (precooked)chickpeas (whole)chopped tomatoeschopped onions (precooked)chopped zuccinichopped fresh herbs (oregano, sage and parsley)flour
