Pampered Chef Making Life Easier in the Kitchen

Dinner is a word I fear! Between being a busy mom and wife, which includes being a taxi driver for my youngest and attending the university to finish my degree, I cringe at the thought of thinking, planning and preparing meals everyday for my family. When I do manage to get a dinner on the table, I’m actually quite surprised by it, but then I’m wondering how to repeat it again the next day. My kitchen is reminiscent of the 1800’s when all the cooks had to accomplish things were some cast iron skillets and a few knives.

  

Pampered Chef Making Life Easier


Imagine my surprise when I went to my first Pampered Chef Party and the consultant-demonstrated products that I did not know existed. I realized that I must have been living under a rock not knowing about the great line of products that simplifies meal preparation and cooking time. For instance, take the food chopper that cuts vegetables into small pieces in the time it takes to blink or the can opener that magically takes the lid off the can without any rough edges (that would have saved me an emergency room visit and some stitches many years ago). How did I manage to live without the knife that looks like a comb and you stab it into the tomato and slice through the tomato without ever having your fingers touch the tomato?

Stoneware in Addition to Cast Iron

Stoneware has now replaced cast iron skillets for baking and doesn’t weigh as much. There are stoneware casserole dishes, cookie sheets, cupcake holders, pie dishes and cake pans. The product line includes items for outdoor cooking on the barbeque. I will miss my muscle building sessions lifting all that cast iron, but stoneware will be a nice addition to the kitchen, not to mention its better looking. Maybe, I even see a future with a barbeque in the backyard. There is no denying the fact, that my days contain too much activity, however, preparing the daily meal seems less daunting when there is Pampered Chef.

Frank Nash: the Most Inspirational English Teacher I Ever Did Know! By Vincent Zandri author of The Remains

I never set out to be a writer. Back in 1979, when I entered the Second Form in a 200 year old, all boys, military school called, The Albany Academy, I simply wanted to become a rock n’ roll star. Like Ringo or Keith Moon, I wanted to play drums in a huge rock band, make a ton of money doing it, get lots of girls, and see the world. While most of the uniformed boys sat attentively in math class, taking copious notes, I drew illustrations of huge drums sets and stared out the window. All that changed when for the first time, I was introduced to Frank Nash in my second term English lit and writing course. First thing that caught my attention was the classroom itself. The Academy was an old building even back then, having been built in the 1920s. Made of stone and strong woods, with real blackboards instead of chalk boards, the place seemed like a kind of time warp. A school caught perpetually in the 19th century instead of one that would see the 21st century in only two more decades. But...

Seven Things About Dangerous Impulses

Today, I we have author F.M. Meredith visiting with us. I have had the pleasure of meeting Marilyn at the Los Angeles Times Book Festival a number of years ago. Join me as she shares seven things about her book.   1.       Dangerous Impulses is # 9 in the Rocky Bluff P.D. series. Though every mystery is complete, every crime solved and the book written as a stand-alone, things happen to the continuing characters: the police officers and their families. Rocky Bluff is a small Southern California Beach community, located between Ventura and Santa Barbara, and mostly overlooked by tourists. 2.       In every RBPD mystery/crime novel there are ongoing characters. One of the most popular with readers is Officer Gordon Butler. Nothing ever seems to go easy for him. Though he is not the “star” in Dangerous Impulses like he was in No Bells , I think his fans will be happy with what he ends up doing near the end of the boo...
