Botanical Description & Habitat
(click image to enlarge)
Trigonella foenum-graecum
Indigenous to the Mediterranian area, cultivated in southern Europe, north Africa, and India.
Grows to 20 inches in height. The taproot produces a smooth, round stem with few branches. The trifoliate leaves have hairy petioles and invertedegg-shaped leaflets. Sessile yellow flowers grow in the upper leaf axils during June and July. The fruit is a 16-seeded, sickle-shaped pod growing to eight inches in length.
Medicinal parts
Seeds - dried, ripe
Historical Properties & Uses
Fenugreek is a highly mucilaginous plant, with liberal amounts of other forms of fiber. Mucilage makes a very good demulcent for chapped hands and lips; peppermint or lemon balm will improve its taste and smell. As an external vulnerary it is effective on boils, cellulitis, and other skin problems, infectious or not. Internally, it soothes stomach problems.
Fenugreek seed contains many proteins, fats, carbohydrates, and saponins, which are beneficial during convalescence from tuberculosis, pneumonia, and other debilitating conditions. The seed extract has hypoglycemic properties, due to the presence of several individually hypoglycemic components. Fibrous portions of the seed significantly lower blood sugar and blood cholesterol levels.
Research has validates other properties of fenugreek seed including uterine and intestinal stimulant, oxytocic, and spermicidal action. In some parts of the world, fenugreek is used as an aphrodisiac, but this property has not been verified.
This herb has approval status by the German Commission E: internally for loss of appetite (see appetite disorders) and externally as an anti-inflammatory poultice.

Method of Action
Fenugreek Seed inhibits hyperglycemia
Extracts of fenugreek seeds, leaves and stems significantly inhibit hyperglycemia induced by cadmium or alloxan, but do not affect normal healthy animals. While the mechanism of action remains unclear, it is felt much can be attributed to the presence of trigonelline, nicotinic acid and coumarin, each of which is individually hypoglycemic. Probably, results can be explained by a synergism among the constituents. Nicotinic acid by itself causes profound hypoglycemia in diabetic and non-diabetic animals. It is felt the trigonelline modifies its action in such a way to prevent the latter effect. Trigonelline, it should be noted, is the end-product of nicotinic acid metabolism.
Recently, the defatted portion of fenugreek seeds has been isolated as the active portion. Analysis of this portion of the seeds revealed it was 53.9% fiber. Since dietary fibers reduce blood sugar levels, it was felt that fiber alone could account for the hyperglycemic effect. The fiber is high in steroid saponins and proteins. Since the defatted extract affected both normal and hyperglycemic animals, it is possible a different mechanism is involved than that of the previous paragraph.
Fenugreek Seed is hypocholesterolemic
The seeds contain diosgenin and tigogenin in the form of glycosides. These two aglycones affect cholesterol metabolism in the liver. It is suggested these saponin-containing plant fibers inhibit cholesterol intestinal absorption by absorbing bile acids which are subsequently lost in the feces. Another possibility could be based on the amino acid pattern of fenugreek proteins. It has been shown plants, such as soybeans, with amino acid patterns similar fenugreek proteins, can significantly lower serum cholesterol levels in experimental animals.
Other pharmacology of Fenugreek Seed
Extracts of the seeds have been shown to stimulate the uterus and intestines of guinea pigs, and to accelerate the heart beat. The uterine stimulating property is especially strong during the final days of pregnancy, and is felt to be strongly oxytocic.
During routine screening tests, fenugreek seeds have been found to be spermicidal in vitro against both rat and human sperm.
Drug Interactions & Precautions
Possible Interactions
The adrenocortical or corticosteroidal action of fenugreek may be antagonized by the use of heparin. Fenugreek's coumarin constituents contribute to anticoagulant effects.
The anti-inflammatory activity of fenugreek can be seriously inhibited by phenobarbital and certain other sedatives and hypnotics, such as chloral hydrate, meprobamate, as well as by beta-adrenergic blocking agents, such as propranolol.
The use of large amounts of fenugreek on a continuous basis may partially block the digestion, absorption or resorption of a wide variety of drugs and fat-soluble vitamins.
To the extent that fenugreek stimulates the liver to catabolize and excrete cholesterol and its by-products via the biliary route, the herb may potentiate the effects of oral anticoagulants.
The presence of tyramine and/or tryptophan in fenugreek could produce hypertension if a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) is also being used, although this is not a likely interaction.
To the extent that fenugreek's action depends on the presence of cholinergic substances, it will be affected by the decrease in cholinergic-receptor stimulation produced by anticholinergics.
The antidiabetic ability of fenugreek may be decreased by the concomitant use of acetazolamide, oral contraceptives, corticosteroids, dextrothyroxine, epinephrine, ethanol, glucagon, and marijuana.
The antidiabetic effects of fenugreek may also be decreased when used in conjunction with phenothiazines, rifampin, thiazide diuretics, and thyroid hormones.
Conversely, the antidiabetic action of fenugreek may be enhanced when used with allopurinol, anabolic steroids, chloramphenicol, clofibrate, fenfluramine, guanethidine, monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOI's), phenylbutazone, probenecid, and phenyramidol.
The antidiabetic action of fenugreek may also be enhanced when used in conjunction with salicylates, sulfinpyrazone, sulfonamides, and tetracyclines.
There is evidence to show combining bactericidal and bacteriostatic agents will lower the effectiveness of the bacteriostatic agent. However, how this finding applies to herbal anti-infectives is still unknown.
Safety Factors & Toxicity
The toxicity level of fenugreek herb has not been determined at this time.

The story of Artein - Gaelic for stone - is hewn from the landscape of both Scotland and Tuscany. Artein has many strong connections to rocks and the earth, from the ancient Cadboll Stone to the mineral-rich Tarlogie Springs.
Finealta is Gaelic for elegant, and its tale takes us back to the gilded age of the Belle Époque. Finealta created a sensation in all the finest places with its understated, peaty taste.
The tale of Sonnalta, Gaelic for 'generous', begins in the 1700's, with some well-travelled grape seeds that created the Vinos Generosis vineyards. We follow the wine-casks from these vineyards as they travel thousands of miles for their part in the story.
Pedro Ximenez was a soldier who served under Charles V of Spain. He brought the PX grape seeds into Spain on his return from Rhine.
Long before Glenmorangie, long before Scotland, in fact - the Picts ruled. They carved the Cadboll Stone full of ancient symbols.
In a dusty old ledger a recipe was discovered that dated back to 1903. It was for Finealta.
The Tarlogie Spring bubbles near the Glenmorangie distillery.
The hot climate of Jerez de la Frontera is ideal for growing grapes. Sherry from PX grapes is deeper, richer and sweeter than other sherries.
The subtle taste of Finealta is buried in the peat, which fired the kilns.
In the late nineteenth century PX wines almost disappeared. They became very rare and collectors paid a great deal for them at auctions.
The Super Tuscan vines force their roots deep into the rocky Tuscan hills to find nourishment, giving the grapes a full, intense flavour.
Finealta was the whisky of choice in many establishments in the early 1900s.
Sonnalta unites the traditions of the finest Scottish whisky with classic Spanish winemaking.

Cousins: 'I've been terrible'

05:47 PM ET 12.05 | Sacramento Kings big man DeMarcus Cousins did not sugarcoat anything when asked to describe his play for the struggling Sacramento Kings this season. "I've been terrible," Cousins said. "We're losing. I don't feel like I made improvements from last year. I really don't have any confidence at all. I'm just trying to think my way through it, but right now, I'm not finding anything." Cousins is averaging just 16 points and 9.5 rebounds per game, both down from his averages last year, and he's shooting less than 42 percent from the field.

He is still very young and could possibly benefit from some bench time where he could serve as a number 6 player; but, the Kings biggest flaw is that there is no depth for the center position.
They have plenty of quality guards to field against any other NBA team but they must rely on both Salmons and Evans to switch back and forth from guard role to small-forward roles. Also, why not allow Jimmer Fredette to start where the coach can have more game time to access playing minutes for the Jimmer; however, that means having Brooks to serve as a number 6 man for the guards...........
To argue about quality youth versus the wisdom of the veterans is an old issue: (PER)Performance Efficiency Rating................... Cousins' quality and who else to play in a Kings' uniform at center?
He could benefit from being benched and serving as a number 6 man for the center position but there is no depth on the Kings' roster for the post positions.
Cousins is young and the benching would do him good! In Fredette's case, he who is also young with great quality, would allow the coach to access more playing time for his self, which is a public determination made by Coach Keith Smart.
Thomas Robinson has much promise because of his quality, and he should be spelling relief for DeMarcus Cousins!
So, I am for a starting five and the second string reliefs being based upon the (PER)Performance Effieciency Rating:
Center: DeMarcus Cousins and (weak position)
Small-forward: Tyreke Evans and Salmons; Hayes and Travis Outlaw.
PointGuard: Fredette and Brooks; Salmons and F. Garcia.
ShootingGuard: M. Thornton and Isaiah Thomas; J. Fredette.
PowerForward: Jason Thompson and T. Robinson; James Johnson.
Several critiques: at 6'6" Chuck Hayes is too short to serve as a Power Forward and at 250 lbs. he is too heavy to serve as a guard, thus he must be a Small Forward if he is to contribute.
Secondly: Francisco Garcia's height and weight, 6'7" and 195 lbs., is too lessor to have him to serve at Small Forward so he should thrive as a guard, (remember Magic Johnson was 6'9" at guard).
Thirdly: Travis Outlaw's best seasons are behind himself (07'-08' and 08'-09') is he an asset to this ball club's plans? His (PER) is a very dismal 6.5? He can serve at Small Forward yet his body weight is identical unto J. Salmons who sometimes plays at Guard, go figure?
Fourth: based upon the (PER) stats, the second string are 1.)-I. Thomas, 2.)-C. Hayes, 3.)-A. Brooks, 4.)-T. Robinson, and 5.)-J. Salmons.
Sixth: Can coach Smart see that his determinations to get enough playing minutes for key players and getting the ball into the hands of other key players is exactly what he has been intending by his public comments during media interviews?
Seventh: Thomas Robinson may be too light for the center position role and may need to remain in the service of Power Forward. This means that when Cousins needs rest the only other player big enough to serve competently as center would be Jason Thompson, and thus Robinson would enter to serve as the Power Forward while Thompson fills in for Cousins.
Eighth: in the stock market promotion generally gives a lift unto the value of a stock; so, when the front office makes much ado in advertisements about any one particular player then they must play that particular athlete or the promotion shall sour the whole team's general performances. The answer for my statement, Coach K. Smart play Jimmer Fredette, and give to him the starter role!
The San Francisco Giants make it a point to play those athletes who they have given the largest annual contracts unto! Does it work? I am telling you, J. Fredette may not have the largest anuual salary on the Kings' roster but he has some very great promotions in Kings' advertisements by the front office!
1.)-John Salmons SF 32 6-6 207 Miami (FL) $8,083,000
2.)-Marcus Thornton SG 25 6-4 205 LSU $7,525,000
3.)-Francisco Garcia SF 31 6-7 195 Louisville $6,100,000
4.)-Chuck Hayes PF 29 6-6 250 Kentucky $5,486,250
5.)-Tyreke Evans PG 23 6-6 220 Memphis $5,250,825
6.)-Jason Thompson PF 26 6-11 250 Rider $5,250,000
7.)-DeMarcus Cousins C 22 6-11 270 Kentucky $3,880,800
8.)-Thomas Robinson PF 21 6-10 237 Kansas $3,374,640
9.)-Aaron Brooks PG 27 6-0 161 Oregon $3,250,000
10.)-Travis Outlaw SF 28 6-9 207 (none) $3,000,000
11.)-James Johnson PF 25 6-9 248 Wake Forest $2,812,006
12.)-Jimmer Fredette PG 23 6-2 195 Brigham Young $2,339,040
13.)-Isaiah Thomas PG 23 5-9 185 Washington $762,195
Two players Garcia and Hayes are making money which their (PER) cannot support; also, Outlaw and Johnson are making more money than Fredette and Thomas who have (PER) much better to sustain their playing time and presence.
Kings basketball 2012-13 shall need to have either renegotiated contracts for their players roster or termination time must arrive for some of these men.
Namely, Garcia' and Hayes' salaries must come down while Evans salary is likely to have to go up........... If not then you're likely to lose that greater ball player!
Isaiah Thomas is likely to begin making double or triple what he is now receiving, while Jimmer Fredette's consistency during playing time may only to improve if he becomes paid better, also!
I am not sure that Travis Outlaw is worth the money he is receiving. Any come backs?
It is obvious to me that T. Honeycutt cannot make the Kings' roster because so much money is being paid unto F. Garcia.
Look at their size comparisons which are nearly identical:
Tyler Honeycutt SF 22 6-8 188 UCLA $809,875
Trading Garcia and cutting Outlaw to make room for Honeycutt, could it be worth it?
One may consider playing James Johnson instead of Chuck Hayes, they have the same body weight but Johnson is three inches taller than Hayes. Many dollars cheaper, also.........
Just some ideas, that's all.................... Basketball in Sacramento, California!
Will You Give Back The Money, Bro?

about mcny
Lina Galindo's story
I enrolled at MCNY for the Spring 2002 semester and plan to graduate next year with my Bachelor of Business Administration Degree.
My son was born while I was still in high school, and after I got my diploma I went to work in a restaurant. I saw an MCNY ad on the subway while on my way to work, and one day I just decided to call. The person I spoke with in the Admissions Office told me they were having entrance exams the next day. I showed up, took the test, passed and registered.
For me, one of the best things about MCNY is the flexibility and the hours. I'm able to keep my job because I'm taking classes on Friday nights and during the day on Saturday.
MCNY has completely transformed my life from being a teen mother with no hope and no plans for the future, to having the confidence and skills that will allow me to have a business or a career and create a good life for my son and myself.
Eventually, I want to open a bakery that caters to the Hispanic community. I want to be a role model for all the teen mothers who think they have no future. I'm twenty years old and I believe that my MCNY education will help me to have a great future.

In this section we are going to break down what "power" is and how it
works. We are not talking about "political power" or "power of
attorney". No, we are talking about electrical power.
Let's start at WHAT electricity is. Electricity is a form of energy.
To get a little more scientific it is the flow of electrons or energy
from one thing to another. You see this flow of electrons happen every
day; when you turn the lights on (if the electricity is working) there
is power flowing from your local power plant to your light bulb and when
you plug anything into the wall outlet it is receiving power from an
exchange of electrons or energy.
Electricity gets even more interesting from here. There are two
different "types" of electricity: Alternating Current (AC) and Direct
Current (DC). They mean exactly what they sound like. DC is a direct
flow of power in one direction while AC is power that changes or
alternates direction.
It's time to get down to the nitty-gritty; Watts, Volts and Amps. You
really don't need to be worried, let's take it one step at a time.
Electricity consists of the flow of electrons through a conductor
such as an electric wire. You can't see electrons but a helpful analogy
is to think of electricity as the flow of water through a pipe. We
measure the rate of flow of electricity as an electric current (notice
the water analogy again if we think of a river current). Electric
current is measured in Amperes, shortened to Amps or simply the letter
A. A current of 2 Amps can be written as 2A. The bigger the current the
more electricity is flowing.
So what makes the current flow in the first place? A device such as a
battery provides a potential difference in an electric circuit. If we
go back to our water analogy, the battery is like a water pump that
propels water through a pipe. It creates pressure in the pipe causing
the water to flow. So how do we measure this pressure? We call
electrical pressure Voltage and measure it in Volts, shortened to V. A
voltage of 3 volts can be written as 3V. The bigger the voltage the
higher the pressure and the more current flows. But in order for the
current to flow, the electrical conductor or wire must loop back to the
battery. If we break the circuit, with a switch for example, then no
current flows.
So how do Current and Voltage relate to one another? Well, the bigger
the current the brighter the light and similarly the bigger the voltage
the brighter the light. Both the voltage and the current in the bulb
determine how much energy is released in a certain time. The Watt is a
measure of power or how much energy is released per second. It can be
shortened to W. One Watt can be written 1W. We can calculate the power
released in a bulb by multiplying the voltage in Volts across the bulb
by the current in Amps flowing through the bulb (W = V x A). For example
a current of 2 Amps flowing through a bulb with 12 Volts across it
generates 24 watts of power. In the UK, domestic power is supplied at
240 Volts. A 100 Watt bulb will therefore draw a current of 100/240 Amps
(about 0.4A). This means a 1A fuse can be safely added to the mains
plug of a desk lamp with a 100W bulb because 1A is much greater than
0.4A. In the USA, the domestic supply is typically 110V, safer than the
UK, and this means a 100W bulb draws a current of 100/110 Amps (about
Solar power is energy that is collected from the sun. The amount of
sunlight that reaches the earth is enough energy to power the needs of
the entire world more than 8500 times over. How does it work? Solar
power cells consist of two layers of treated silicon. The bottom layer
is positively charged and the top layer is negatively charged. When the
sun hits the panel electrons move and create electricity. What does
solar efficiency mean? Manufacturers test their solar panels and cells
in perfect conditions (74 degree, 1 MPH wind), which is never what
actually happens in reality. However, with the correct orientation to
the sun and good sunlight, you can expect on average around 60% of the
rated wattage that the panel advertised.

MOUNT VERNON — The Kokosing Valley Beekeepers Association is hosting a beginner beekeeping course workshop, Saturday, Feb. 11, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Registration will begin at 8 a.m. and will be held at the Knox County Extension building, 1025 Harcourt Road, Mount Vernon. Seats are limited, so preregistration is required.
All the basic information needed to become a beekeeper will be covered. The sessions will be taught by beekeeping members of Kokosing Valley Beekeepers Association with over 100 years of combined experience. "We can't teach everything there is to know about beekeeping in one day, but it will be enough to get anyone interested in beekeeping started," said Brian Farmer, program chairman. "There is a lot to know, and even as experienced beekeepers, we continue to learn something new all the time."
The course will include topics such as what types of bees are suited for the Knox County area, and the best ways to acquire bees and install them in a new hive. Also, the course will cover hive parts, equipment needs, and even the best location for a hive. Most importantly, discussions will be held on how to keep bees healthy and how to deal with pest problems.
Registration cost per person includes the book "First Lessons in Beekeeping," by Dr. Keith Delaplane, and lunch will be provided. The seating is limited, so registration closes on Feb. 3.
For more information, to register and get a complete agenda, visit www.knoxbees.com or call 740-627-0741.

A - Very surprised by how dark this beer is...even though the title should've clued me in. A nice foamy light brown head that retains and laces.
S - Like an IPA. My eyes can't believe my nose.
T - This is a great beer. Served cold the hops really dominate the flavor and it tastes just like a solid IPA. However, letting it warm opens up a great flavor profile. Underneath the hops I could detect some toffee, sugar, and spice. It finishes with a nice smoky grain flavor with some linger hoppiness. They should make more beers like this.
M - Medium bodied, well carbonated.
D - Goes down easy enough, tastes good, and despite the high ABV is quite quaffable.

look: 3.75 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 4
Pours a dark brown approaching black (but not quite there) color, about a finger's worth of head which fades at a moderate pace, few patches of sticky lacing on the glass.
Smell has a strong roasted/burnt malt aroma, hops aren't quite as strong but there is some pine lingering around.
Taste throughout is a mix of roasted malt and pine, burnt bitter aftertaste but enough sweetness to not be overwhelming, carbonation is medium with an average body.

Bottled 1/4/14 enjoyed 3/28/14.
A- Black with a slight brown hue. Clear. An off white one finger head putters out quickly to leave a light cap. Very little lacing at all.
S- Has a dank pine hop tone with roasted malts there too. Black licorice notes as well.
T- Dark roasted malts. A nutty flavor in there. Caramel with a little cocoa. Then some charcoal notes . You get a a warming alcohol feel starting in the middle and lasting well into the end. A complex brew, it throws alot at you.
M- A heavier brew, creamy feeling. Somewhat gritty. A meal in a bottle. Perhaps a little bit too carbonated. A couple few may be too much. More a sippin' beer.
O- This black ale is deep without being rude. Tons of flavor and feel from the dark side. Roasted malts mingling with a bitter hop backbone makes for an interesting conversation. And that ain't no lie. Good sippin' brew but could fill you up. Enjoyable.

Bottled January 6th and poured March 25th. $2.49 single poured into a Sam Adams Perfect Pint glass.
Appearance: Aggressively poured -- too much so. Got most of the beer in the glass, but a four finger soapy and creamy head stuck around for a bit. Iniquity is a perfectly clear mahogany color. There's a lot of lacing for this beer as well. Looks very nice in the glass.
Smell: Delicious. Outstanding. Awesome. Incredible. Really now. So much fruit and earthiness from the hops, it's pretty much insane. Massively hoppy. A lot of sorts of nondescript fruitiness and sweetness are there... just a sort of fruit cocktail of fruity deliciousness. The undertones on the aroma are all the earthy, piney, resinous hop smells. There is maybe also a faint hint of roasty character as well, but it's basically all about the hops. Going on three months old, and it smells like it was bottled yesterday. I'd love to get a whiff of this fresh.
Taste/feel: Holy balls. Alright, okay, that's interesting, let me gather my thoughts here. Okay. Wow. This is gonna be a long description. Rolls across the tongue almost tangy with some alcohol warmth and a bit of an alcohol flavor. The tangy and alcohol combination meet with the combination of fruity and earthy hops as well as roasted malt and make for an experience that, well, needs to be experienced. It's hard to describe what's going on adequately. I guess the tanginess is throwing me for a loop because it was so unexpected. The alcohol isn't well hidden, but it's not a problem for me here. There's a fair amount of flavor and warmth. A bit bitter, but there's also a pretty huge amount of sweetness on the finish as well. It's clusterfuck-y, yet it works. There's a slight belly warmth after the swallow, too. Iniquity has a pretty low carbonation, and about a medium sort of body to it as well.
Interesting beer that I feel I could easily pick out of a line up of black ales. That tanginess is unmistakable. For all I know, this beer is mildy infected, but whether it is or isn't, that little sort of funk is more than welcome. Bursting with resinous hops, a roasty character on the finish, alcohol that's not shy to show itself... a very interesting, enjoyable beer. Well worth the $2.49, because this was an experience worth having. Would have it again, for sure.

Belo Shelton has loved to cook since he was 5 years old, when he burned his hands on the stovetop trying to help his Mother with breakfast. She bought him a stepping stool to get up and cook and he's been cooking ever since. Belo opened his first restaurant, Belo's Real-Pit BBQ, in 1983. Cooking on gas with whole hogs, Belo perfected his Sauce, Cole Slaw, Brunswick Stew and Hushpuppies. He also learned that he knew nothing about running a business, closing the doors a year and half later. Not to be discouraged, Belo went to work with Wendy's, where he learned about food and labor costs, customer service and business management.
Belo founded Epicurean Delights in Atlanta, GA in 1991, when he began catering his award-winning North Carolina-style Barbecue to the corporate community and other gatherings out of his home kitchen. As his clients' needs and interests grew, Belo expanded the operation-moving first to a location in Downtown Atlanta in 1992, and then in 1998 to Midtown Atlanta. As business grew Belo expanded his menu to include an increasingly sophisticated and creative selection of fine foods.
In the spring of 2000, Belo asked Margaret to marry him and he knew it was time to get out of Atlanta. Belo went into business with his friend, Rodney Evans, in their hometown of Durham, NC. He had read about the growth and great business opportunities of the area and was anxious to return. Belo and Rodney designed Thrills From The Grill as an off-premise Special Events Caterer, omitting the boxed lunches, small dinners and breakfasts, and other such catering services that had been offered in Atlanta.
Since arriving in Durham, Belo and the Thrills' chefs have created countless mouth-watering menu items, most of them grilled. Thrills From The Grill is "The Show" of catering. We bring our grills and cook your food before your eyes, ensuring fresh, great-tasting food complete with the smell and smoke of the grill. All of our salads, sides and desserts are prepared fresh for your event. We make every marinade, sauce and rub we use. Having been in business for over 21 years, Belo and his team know how to please their guests, and how to out- service, out-deliver, and out-perform most others.
Thank you very much for your interest in Thrills From The Grill Catering. We look forward to helping you plan and serving you at your next Special Event.
Give us a call at: (919) 220-5787

Restaurant Review: Kitchen in South End
Scott Herritt's new South End restaurant is a welcome glimpse into the past.
Anybody who enjoys poring over our regional culinary history to understand how people once ate—or, really, anyone who just enjoys reading cookbooks—will be excited by Kitchen, Scott Herritt's eccentric, lovable new restaurant in the South End. For food-history buffs, it's a dream restaurant, one that answers the question, How did those foods I've only read about actually taste? Herritt uses recipes from a wide variety of sources—Hannah Glasse's Art of Cookery, the original 1931 edition of The Joy of Cooking, the writings of James Beard and M.F.K. Fisher—to present a kind of cavalcade of American cuisine: western pork and beans; high-style dishes a Vanderbilt would have ordered at Delmonico's, in New York; the sole meunière that changed Julia Child's life.
But even if none of that interests you, even if all you're after is a great meal, you should still eat at Kitchen, located in a semi-basement that has housed successive independent restaurants, most recently Pops. Herritt is producing food that's both thought-provoking and very good.

Yum! These mushrooms look like delicious little gems.
Mexican Stuffed Mushrooms
*Photo Updated August 2012*
Inspiration: On my list of favorite appetizers, stuffed mushrooms are way up there. There are countless recipes for them, and I've loved nearly every one that I've tried. That being said, when I ran across these Mexican stuffed mushrooms, I knew that they would be perfect for our football-watching Mexican appetizer spread. And as an aside, I'll be blogging my absolute favorite recipe – creamy shrimp and bacon stuffed mushrooms - just as soon as I get the chance to make them again.
What we Loved: These stuffed mushrooms tasted just like tacos. It was amazing, especially considering that they were vegetarian. We couldn't quite believe how much they reminded me of the traditional beef, cheddar, and lettuce taco that everyone loves. All of the vegetables were mixed with a nice helping of chili powder, cumin, and colby jack cheese, which is what really gave these that wonderful taco flavor. We especially loved how the gooey cheese held everything together.
Helpful Hints: Make sure to cook your mushrooms long enough so that a lot of the moisture from the mushrooms can escape. The baking dish will be quite watery when you take them out, but that's a good thing. I think that this recipe would also work fabulously using large portabella mushroom caps for a main dish.
Mexican Stuffed Mushrooms
Source: Pots and Plots
I made a few changes to the recipe. Here's the recipe as I made it.
12-15 baby portabella mushrooms
Approximately 2-3 inches of a zucchini, very finely chopped
1/2 small vidalia onion, very finely chopped
1/4 red bell pepper, very finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt (using more or less to taste)
2-3 oz colby cheese, finely grated
1. Clean the mushrooms, and remove and finely chop the stems. Place the mushrooms cap-side down in a baking dish.
2. Add a pat of butter to a small saute pan over medium heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems, zucchini, onion, and bell pepper. Saute for 4-5 minutes, until the vegetables are softened and the liquid is gone. Add the garlic, and saute for 30 seconds more.
3. Season the vegetable mix with the cumin, chili powder, and salt.
4. Remove the pan from the heat, and stir in the cheese.
5. Spoon the mixture into the mushroom caps.
6. Bake at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes, until the mushrooms are softened and browned.
4 thoughts on "Mexican Stuffed Mushrooms"
This post is by far the most yummy looking dish I have seen lately. Nobody else seems to make anything that is enticing anymore…. You can see my bloglists and you know why….
Mushrooms that taste like tacos? Sold!
Stuffed mushrooms are one of my favorites! This looks great and I totally agree about cooking most of the moisture out, otherwise boiling hot mushroom liquid squirts in your mouth. Not good!

Day 27. Free day...what else can I say. Hope you all have great day!!!
fit4life "The dream must be bigger than the pain"
Grats! I enjoyed my first free day on Thursday and it served the purpose of reminding me how yucky being full of grease made me feel. The food was quite good while it lasted. I have started a mental list of cravings I have during the week so I can plan my free day well. If I remember correctly from my very first challenge six or seven years ago, I tapered off the cravings and free day became about one good treat that I wanted instead of a day long binge.
Yep.....free day used to be for me a complete pigout but it has tamed somewhat. It is more an R&R day of non-scheduled eating. After yesterdays free day I was looking forward to getting back on the plan today.
I agree. I have started to view freeday a set back for me every week. After working so hard during the week it is difficult for me to imagine stuffing my face with fatty foods. On freeday I have started ordering pizza without cheese but piled high in veggies and no meat. I have also started going for the low-fat or non-fat ice cream options instead of regular options. I have noticed this satisfies any cravings and I don't feel as though I have completely blown it.
P.S. Once I got the taste for fatty foods out of my system, foods that I could not stand before (lowfat ice cream, etc.) taste pretty good.

89% of the CEO
Philippe P. Dauman
I worked at MTV Networks as an intern
Pros – As a designer, fun projects.
Cons – No sense of company culture ro community, and no appreciation for its employees. You are a cog in the machine, alongside thousands of employees working to add "MTV" to their resume. Little appreciation ro recognition; you are a nobody. It is inexcusable for internships to be unpaid, at such a massive company.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
I worked at MTV Networks
Pros – Name recognition, big name on your resume, possibilty to see some talent from the newtwork, after work events and award shows.
Cons – meaningful work, advancement of job placement
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

While the U.S. was busy stealing a rancher's cattle, al Qaeda was meeting and plotting.
via Video shows large al Qaeda meeting in Yemen – CNN.com.
(CNN) — A new video shows what looks like the largest and most dangerous gathering of al Qaeda in years. And the CIA and the Pentagon either didn't know about it or couldn't get a drone there in time to strike.
U.S. officials won't comment on that, but every frame of the video is now being analyzed by the United States.
In the middle of the clip, the man known as al Qaeda's crown prince, Nasir al-Wuhayshi, appears brazenly out in the open, greeting followers in Yemen. Al-Wuhayshi, the No. 2 leader of al Qaeda globally and the head of al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, has said he wants to attack the United States. But in the video, he looks unconcerned that he could be hit by an American drone.
The video started appearing on jihadist websites recently, drawing the attention of U.S. officials and global terrorism experts. U.S. officials say they believe it's authentic.
In a speech to the group, al-Wuhayshi makes it clear that he's going after the United States, saying "We must eliminate the cross. … The bearer of the cross is America!"
U.S. officials believe the highly produced video is recent. With some fighters faces blurred, there is worry it signals a new round of plotting.
"The U.S. intelligence community should be surprised that such a large group of al Qaeda assembled together, including the leadership, and somehow they didn't notice," said Peter Bergen, CNN national security analyst.
"His message to the United States," Cruickshank said, "was very much the same as (former al Qaeda leader Osama) bin Laden's: 'We're coming after you.' "

This press release is an announcement submitted by , and was not written by Diabetes Health.
HOLLYWOOD, FL -- They come from New York, Miami, Milwaukee and more. They have children of all ages with type 1 diabetes - and they're on a mission to find a cure. They're the "Real Moms of the DRI Foundation" and in honor of Mother's Day they're asking millions of moms - and others - to support the Diabetes Research Institute, a world leader in cure-focused research.
In a weeklong campaign that kicks off today, almost a dozen moms of children with type 1 diabetes tell their personal stories of how diabetes affects their children's lives - and their lives - through a series of videos on the Diabetes Research Institute website www.DiabetesResearch.org/RealMoms. For these moms, real-life drama is more likely to revolve around finger pricks and carb counts rather than fashion faux pas and catty snipes. Moms like Meredith Buchwald of Weston, FL, Real Mom to Lauren, 5, says it's something that the whole family has to deal with 24 hours a day, seven days a week. "It's day to day and so difficult. She just can't go over to a friend's for a play date. It has to be planned," she says. "As a mom, having a child with diabetes is tough because you turn yourself into a pancreas, and I have done that for Lauren."
Danielle Gregory of New York City, Real Mom to Leo, 8, thinks about all the needles and testing and it breaks her heart. "It's my job to protect him. I want to do everything I can to make this go away and I feel like our only hope is a cure," she says. "It would be my dream to see him living in this world without diabetes. It would be the greatest gift - and not just Leo, for all kids."
The other Real Moms echo their sentiments. Life with diabetes is tough and they all want nothing more than to see a cure. That's why they support the Diabetes Research Institute, "because of their 100% dedication into finding a cure, period. Do our children deserve anything less?" emphatically states Barbara Brindisi of Utica, NY, whose son, Louis Thomas, 13, has diabetes. Like all the Real Moms, she's asking others to join her in supporting the Diabetes Research Institute this Mother's Day. Visitors can send a Mother's Day eCard with their donation, among other ways to support the Institute's life-saving research.
"We are grateful to all of these moms for telling their stories about what it's like to live with diabetes. Many will share a real commonality with them. We hope everyone who views the videos will be educated, inspired and motivated to support the Diabetes Research Institute, whose singular focus is to find a cure," said Robert A. Pearlman, president and CEO of the Diabetes Research Institute Foundation. "We must continue to move research forward to cure these children and millions of others living with diabetes. The only way we can get there is with continued funding. Everyone can do something to honor their mother this Mother's Day with a gift to the DRI."
For more information about the Diabetes Research Institute, visit www.DiabetesResearch.org or call 1-800-321-3437.
About the Diabetes Research Institute and Foundation
The mission of the Diabetes Research Institute Foundation is to provide the Diabetes Research Institute with the funding necessary to cure diabetes now. The Diabetes Research Institute, a Center of Excellence at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, leads the world in cure-focused research. As the largest and most comprehensive research center dedicated to curing diabetes, the DRI is aggressively working to shrink the timeline toward the discovery of a biological cure for this disease. Having already shown that diabetes can be reversed through islet transplantation, the DRI is building upon these promising outcomes by bridging cell-based therapies with emerging technologies. For the millions of people affected by diabetes, the Diabetes Research Institute is the best hope for a cure.

How could all those people in the greeting card aisle be interested in the same card as me? You know, the one that says, "Best Dad in the World."
Something's fishy about that. I thought I had the best dad in the world.
In fact, I know I do. My dad has a large collection of greeting cards, oddities and novelties that specifically state, "Best Dad in the World." Isn't that proof enough?
Not to mention the fact that he's my dad. I mean, wouldn't you say, "My dad is the best dad in the world."
My mom said it to my sister. She said, "Debbie, my dad was the best dad in the world."
To which my sister replied, "What? My dad's the best dad in the world."
"Your dad's good, but mine was better," my mom said jokingly. Mind you, she was talking about her husband of over 50 years and she knew that he was the best dad in the world to my sister and me.
This banter went on between my mom and my sister until finally, my sister said, "My dad's better than your dad. C'mon, put up your dukes."
To which my mom smartly replied, "Ha." And that ended that.
Being that I knew my grandfather, I'm beginning to suspect that there could be more than one "Best Dad in the World."
I bet the baby bluebirds in my yard think their dad is the best. Every morning, Mr. Bluebird appears at the hanging, dish feeder for the special of the day, mealworms. He gathers up as many worms as his skinny beak will hold. Then, he flies away home, where the babies are waiting with open beaks.
Why I bet there are extraterrestrial kids who think they've got the best dads. These alien dads probably have all kinds of advanced tech stuff, cook up food that's out of this world and, seriously, who wouldn't want to learn to navigate a spaceship?
I think I'm beginning to understand. The "Best Dad in the World" is in the eye of the beholder. There can be more than one. So, Happy Father's Day to all the "Bests."
And Happy Father's Day to my dad, the "Best Dad in the World, the Universe, Infinity and beyond, Beyond."
If only I could find a card that says that.

Total Number of Outages Exceeds Number of Customers Who Lost Service during Back-to-Back Blizzards of 2010
Customers advised to avoid downed wires and report them immediately at 410-685-0123
Customers asked to please be patient when reporting outages at 1-877-778-2222
BALTIMORE, Jan. 27, 2011 – Baltimore Gas and Electric Company (BGE), today announced it has restored electric service to more than 100,000 customers – more than half of all customers who lost service during yesterday's winter storm which brought trees and large tree limbs - weighted down by heavy wet snow – down onto power lines and other electric delivery equipment, causing interruptions in electric service. BGE has requested assistance from crews in Kentucky, Tennessee, Ohio and North Carolina and expects those resources to begin arriving later this afternoon. Although major roads have been plowed and treated, side streets and narrow alleys may still be extremely hazardous and challenging to access, which could delay the restoration effort. BGE thanks its customers in advance for their patience and understanding and reminds them to stay updated on restoration efforts via Twitter and Face.
"At BGE, the safety of our customers and employees is always our top priority," said A. Christopher Burton, senior vice president of gas and electric operations and planning for BGE. "We certainly understand the unique challenges associated with an interruption in electric service – particularly during the winter months - and want our customers to know that more than 1,000 dedicated BGE and contract employees are working 12-16 hour shifts in the field, storm center, call center and other locations across Central Maryland to ensure electric service is restored as safely and as quickly as possible."
Customers with special needs such as those who may be elderly, handicapped or dependent on electricity for medical equipment, should have alternate arrangements in place should they experience an extended power outage. Customers using a generator or space heater should follow manufacturer instructions and be sure to locate generators in well-ventilated areas.
BGE's restoration priorities are public safety issues and critical facilities, such as 911 centers, hospitals and pumping stations. Then restoration is generally scheduled so that the greatest number of customers can be restored as quickly and as safely as possible. However, in cases of extended power outages, consideration is also given to customers who have been without service for the longest.
Just as BGE prepares for severe weather and the possibility of power outages, customers should also be prepared and take steps to ensure the safety of their families and property during electric service interruptions. Customers should keep the following items readily available:
* Flashlights – not candles
* Fresh batteries
* Battery operated clock radio
* Corded telephone
* Fully charged cell phone
* Non-perishable foods
* Blankets
Customers also should consider filling the fuel tanks of their vehicles in the event a power outage affects service to neighborhood gas stations. For customers who rely on well water, filling a bathtub with water in advance of severe weather is strongly encouraged.
Customers are always reminded to stay away from downed power lines and to report them immediately by calling 1-877-778-2222. For more information about BGE storm preparation and how customers can protect their families and property, go to www.bge.com.
In addition to monitoring current and approaching weather conditions which could result in service interruptions, BGE regularly conducts emergency training drills during which all aspects of storm related service restoration are tested. BGE also reviews its Electric Delivery Emergency Response Plan to ensure that storm response procedures are up-to-date and in line with industry standards.
BGE, www.bge.com, headquartered in Baltimore, is Maryland's largest gas and electric utility, delivering power to more than 1.2 million electric customers and more than 640,000 natural gas customers in Central Maryland. The company's approximately 3,000 employees are committed to the safe and reliable delivery of gas and electricity, as well as enhanced energy management, conservation, environmental stewardship and community assistance. BGE is a subsidiary of Constellation Energy, www.constellation.com, a FORTUNE 500 company also headquartered in Baltimore, with subsidiaries that generate, sell and provide other energy-related services to customers throughout North America.

Ask us
"Ever eat a pine tree? Many parts are edible."
The late Euell Gibbons, author of Stalking the Wild Asparagus, became famous for that question on television in the 1970's. When we welcome Alicia Funk to Cupertino Community Hall on April 24th for our CNPS program on Gardening, Cooking and Healing with California Native Plants, she won't be breaking down any pine trees, but the focus of the program will be about how to identify and safely use beneficial native plants. The program starts at 7:00 pm.
Ms. Funk is a proponent of teaching sustainability and love of the land by encouraging people to landscape their gardens, prepare delicious meals and produce medicines for minor ailments using regional native plants. She is the author of Living Wild, Herbal Medicine, The Botanical Safety Handbook, and three others. She is an herbalist who began learning about plant based medicines from an indigenous woman in the Ecuadorian Rainforest in 1990. You can learn more about Ms. Funk and her Living Wild Project at the Living Wild webpage.

I worked at Cisco Systems full-time for more than 10 years
Pros – Great benefits, competitive salaries. Fairly easy to move around within the company. Many competent and caring people on board.
Cons – Competing product lines and priorities. Way too many corporate initiatives to be effective. Work/life balance very difficult due to virtual global teams and complexity of stakeholders involved in almost any decision of consequence. Management increasingly disconnected from the technical community.
Advice to Senior Management – Listen more to technical thought leaders. Trim product lines and features...

"I knew once I saw this card I had to order it, and was I impressed on how wonderful it came out! I love the option of putting more pictures on the back of the card, so even though there is only room for one pic on the front, I chose to put the three pic layout on the back! Everyone that I sent this card to loved the quality and asked me where I got it from. I did my son's baby shower invitations from Tiny Prints as well, and those were wonderful too! If you want 5 star quality, pick this birth announcement card!"
"This was a really nice announcement. It was supper easy to personalize, I tried many variations before deciding. I even put an extra picture on the back. Ordering was a snap. The shipping was really quick, in fact I was surprised how fast they came. The paper was a nice quality, and the printing was perfect. Everyone who received one commented on how cute they were (of course a cute baby will do that!). I feel like these announcements were a good value. I will definitely order from TinyPrints again."
"Excellent customer service! I was assured that my additional request would be just as I wanted. The product was super cute and I got nothing but compliments from all the people I sent it to! Worth every cent--and I'm still ordering extras, which is really easy, because more and more people want one."
"Everything at Tiny prints is great. If you have a problem with anything they will work with you to get it fixed. There products are super high quility and durable for any type of shipping. This is our second time using them and wont use anyone else!"
"LOVE this announcement. It's adorable, & the printing & paper quality are excellent. Had some issues ordering & customer service was very attentive & helpful. Would definitely recommend tinyprints!"

I have enjoyed tasting wine since even before my father bought me a mixed case of Almaden varietal wines for my 21st birthday. In the years following my graduation with a chemistry degree, wine tasting became a regular feature of holidays and vacations. I was living in the Los Angeles area and visited the few remaining wineries in and around Cucamonga. Later trips included visits to Napa, Sonoma, Temecula, and other California wine regions. Wherever we went, my wife Marty White and I would visit wineries, take tours, and learn about wine.
In 1993, a new job opportunity brought me to Sonoma County. Soon after my arrival, my new co-workers told me that the Sonoma County Harvest Fair was the following weekend, featuring a large hall filled with wineries offering tastes. Since my family hadn't joined me yet, I went on my own and spent an eye-opening afternoon at the fairgrounds. The room was huge and there were something like 100 wineries pouring. A small fee paid for a souvenir glass and a few tastes, with additional taste tickets available for purchase. It sounds like a party, and it was a lot of fun, but the focus is definitely on tasting at this annual event. Locals and tourists alike relish the opportunity to sample the award-winning wines, all in one place.
Soon my family relocated as well and we bought a place just out of town on the west side of Petaluma, California. With a large backyard, I decided I wanted a hobby vineyard. Leading up to planting, I took classes at Santa Rosa Junior College on viticulture and enology. Both programs included some tasting, but the enology class was especially informative. The class met one evening a week for three hours. At each session, the instructor would lecture first, then spend the last half-hour on tasting. He brought in three or four wines to each class, themed by variety, style, or country of origin. The semester also featured field trips to several local wineries, each offering guided tastings. I went on to enroll in classes focused on tasting, like Winemakers of Sonoma County, where each weekly session featured selected wines and discussion about them.
In 1999, my vines went in the ground. Meanwhile, Marty and I periodically entertained friends and relatives from out of town by taking them wine tasting around the Sonoma County region. In 2000, I started work as General Manager at Vinquiry, a wine-testing laboratory in Windsor, California. That is where I began the transition from recreational "wine tasting" to professional "sensory evaluation." At first, I received informal training in wine evaluation from enologists on the staff, as well as from Vinquiry's owners. When a wine submitted for analysis was especially good (or spectacularly bad!), one of them would bring a taste to my office or call me into the sensory evaluation room to share the experience and possibly join the discussion. During that time, I learned the necessary technique for sip-and-spit. It is a bit awkward at first, but a taster could never get through judging a serious competition if he or she swallowed every taste....
