So you need to replace your mattress, and you want to do the green right thing, for your health and for the environment. You may be trying to reduce your overall carbon footprint, or perhaps to choose a product that's better for your health. Ideally, you can do both.
Unfortunately, there is a plethora of "natural," "green," "eco-friendly" mattress solutions out there, some with a hefty price tag. How's a consumer to know what's worth springing for – and what's not?
Conventional mattresses are very likely to contain chemicals, some potentially toxic to humans and/or harmful to the environment. One way to go green is to choose a mattress with fewer chemicals or no chemicals.
My husband and I went the less-toxic, rather than 100 percent chemical-free, route. We bought a new mattress from Keetsa, which offers an alternative to the traditional memory-foam mattress. We had been shopping for a Tempurpedic because we loved the feel of "memory foam" (made of visco-elastic polyurethane). But polyurethane, a petroleum product, releases gasses from volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that can cause respiratory harm. They're also highly flammable, which makes them more likely to be treated with chemical flame retardants.
Friends who were in the same boat recommended Keetsa. We zipped over from the mattress discount warehouse to Keetsa's San Francisco showroom, lay down on the Tea Leaf Supreme, (pictured below) a mattress they said contained lower-emission memory foam blended with green tea leaves, anti-bacterial silver and organic cotton. We were instantly transported to mattress nirvana.
The price, at $1,759, was a little higher than Tempurpedic, which runs about $1,499 for the lowest-priced model, but we felt good about the reduced VOC emissions (almost zero, according to Joe Alexander, the sales and marketing director, pictured), and the fact that our mattress and its modular box spring were packed in boxes we could fit into our car. Keetsa's mattresses are made in China in a Keetsa-owned factory, Alexander said, which is is "ISO 900″ rated for quality management and pays a "living wage."
There are other green mattress options for chemically sensitive people, or those who are committed to 100 percent organic materials. Northern California-based Lifekind, Inc. makes what it says are 100 percent organic, chemical-free mattresses in its Yuba City factory. (Their "organicpedic" natural rubber mattress is pictured above.) The company was started by chronically chemically sensitive Walt Bader, who wanted to make beds in which he could sleep.
Sylvia Seymour, a Lifekind representative, said, "It comes down to what we're exposing ourselves to for a third of our lives." Lifekind's mattresses are made from three ingredients: pure wool (used both as stuffing and quilting material and as a flame-resistant barrier), certified organic cotton, and 100 perent natural rubber, harvested from rubber trees, imported in powder form in tightly sealed metal drums, and reconstituted in the U.S. and formed into the mattress core.
Lifekind sells organic mattresses with metal inner-springs as well. Lifekind's prices for king-sized mattresses, until Sept. 1, 2008, range from $2,595 for the "Euro" (which is a completely natural-rubber mattress) to $3,695 for the OrganicPedic, a three-layer natural-rubber bed geared toward people with pressure point discomfort. Other companies offering fully natural rubber mattresses with organic wool and cotton include FloBeds ($1,949 to $2,949) and Organic Mattresses, Inc. All three companies make and ship their beds from their own U.S. manufacturing facilities.
Conventional mattresses may have chemicals in the materials they're made of (typically polyester, polyurethane foams, synthetic latex, Styrofoam and nylon), with additional chemicals introduced in the form of flame retardants, required by the government.
A 2007 national fire-resistance standard for mattresses requires a tougher test than ever before, resisting ignition when exposed to open flames. Mattress manufacturers can make mattresses meet the standard any way they choose. Some use fire-retardant chemicals. Some use chemical-free, naturally fire-resistant fabric barriers. Some use a combination of both.
A mattress made from organic cotton or wool doesn't necessarily mean it's free of fire retardants or other chemicals, but, because these materials are more inherently flame-resistant than foam, they require fewer or no added chemicals to meet safety standards. Rubber is naturally flame resistant and wool is being increasingly used as a non-toxic fire-resistant barrier in mattresses. Organic materials – those grown without pesticides – are a greener choice because they are better for the environment.
However, Sonya Lunder, a senior analyst at Environmental Working Group, a health and safety watchdog group, said, "Organic fabrics don't necessarily offer any health and safety benefits to the consumer."
The Environmental Working Group is concerned about health and safety hazards, though, and some mattresses do present such dangers to consumers.
The group has published research on PBDEs, polybrominated diphenyl ethers, which have long been used in foam furniture as flame-retardants — and have been found to cause developmental harm. Thankfully, the most commonly used form of these chemicals was withdrawn from the U.S. market in 2005. So you can be pretty sure your new U.S. or European-made mattress is free of the banned PBDEs.
But your new mattress could have other chemical flame retardants in it, such as brominated hydrocarbons or chlorinated TRIS, a cancer-causing chemical that was banned from children's sleepwear in 1977. Most manufacturers won't tell you which chemicals they use as flame-retardants because they consider it a trade secret. As the environmental group's Lunder said, "There isn't really any system for directing manufacturers toward the least-toxic products."
And toxic they can be, some consumers claim. One previously healthy Texas woman, Tanya Tollefson, shared a horror story about health issues both she and her husband experienced that started as soon as they brought their new standard mattress home. Tollefson said the couple's symptoms ranged from weepy eyes, to severe headaches and tinnitus. These symptoms continued unabated for two months until they replaced the mattress with a wool-wrapped, 100 percent natural latex one from FloBeds (pictured above).
"We got the mattress in the home and within the first week we started noticing these health issues," said Tollefson, a mother of three in her 30s. "Several that started occurring at the same time, and they finally went away or subsided after the mattress was out of the house."
"As soon as the mattress was gone, Damian's headaches were gone. The weepy eyes quit."
While they don't know for certain whether their symptoms were related to chemical flame retardants, or the mattress materials, or both, theirs is not an isolated example – other consumers share their mattress-related health issues at Chem-Tox, a website put together by a professor at the University of Florida.
As Lunder mentioned, few U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regulations exist to monitor indoor air quality, but there is an independent certification, Greenguard, that can give consumers some measurable information about the levels of chemicals their mattresses release into the air.
The Greenguard Certification Program is an industry-independent, voluntary third party testing program for low-emitting products and materials, overseen by a non-profit organization, the Greenguard Environmental Institute. The Greenguard Online Product Guide features products which are regularly tested to ensure their chemical and particle emissions meet acceptable indoor air quality guidelines and standards. A search on the guide turned up 16 mattresses with Greenguard certification, from three companies: Lifekind, Naturepedic (baby products), and Organic Mattresses, Inc.
The Environmental Working Group maintains a list of PBDE-free products, including mattresess, cribs and futons. IKEA is one company on the environmental group's lists as phasing out all PBDEs from their products. European Sleepworks, also on that list, sells mattresses certified by a Swiss association, Oeko-Tex (which claims to thoroughly test its textiles for harmful chemicals and health hazards).
Companies that sell greener products sometimes go the extra mile to try to green their business model as well. Both Keetsa and FloBeds compress and pack their mattresses into boxes that fit in a standard car (Keetsa) or can be shipped by standard shippers like UPS (FloBeds). Keetsa doesn't use delivery trucks, and sales and marketing director Joe Alexander said they could fit five times as many mattresses into a standard shipping container than traditional mattress companies, further reducing the business' overall carbon footprint.
The bottom line? A little research can go a long way towards a greener night's sleep.

Rated 5 out of 5 by kermit813 Much like the other reviews
I normally wear a 7 in Tory Burch shoes. The Reva fits perfectly with the elastic back, while the Sally Wedge is a little large in a 7, so I put a pad in the back and they fit great. As a few other people said, they toe box is a little wider, making a 7 way to big for me, and a 6.5 perfect. I also agree, the front tongue is very stiff and will take some time to work in. All that said, the shoes are beautiful with tights and a skirt, and I plan to wear them to work with pants.

This bootie is the classic addition to every outfit. It's casual enough for jeans for brunch but easily dressed up for a night out. From leggings to shorts, skirts and dresses to jeans, it goes with every outfit. And it's Tory. So not only will it last forever, but it will be in style forever.

Anna T. Meadows, MD
Last Modified: January 6, 2002
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
My daughter is 10 and suffers about four to five times a year of reflux and gastric problems. Her reflux and gastric problems are due to a lot of antibiotics that have been given with treatments of omeprazole and other medicines for more than a year. Can children suffer from cancer of the stomach or esophagus?
Anna T. Meadows, MD, Pediatric Oncologist at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and Director of the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania's Survivorship Research Program, responds:
Cancer of the esophagus and stomach are so rare in children that we do not even consider it as a potential diagnosis in most circumstances. Except for children with unusual other diseases (e.g., AIDS), we have never seen it in otherwise healthy children. Reflux should be treated and a gastroenterologist is the person to ask about what's best.
May 28, 2010 - Selenium status appears to be inversely associated with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and gastric cardia adenocarcinoma, and there may also be an inverse association between esophageal adenocarcinoma and selenium status in certain subgroups, according to a study published in the May issue of Gastroenterology.

Here is a very pretty pill box. I am not sure of the maker, it could be Bircraft. It appears to me to be brass plated and measures 1 1/2" in diameter. The rose is a very deep red, not as light as in the pics.
This is a Machwitz Kaffee (coffee) tin. It measures 3 6/8" long by 2 7/8" wide by 2" high. This little German tin was made in the 1930's. As you can see by the pics it is in used condition. The hinges are in very good working order.

5 PerfectGunner2k | 11/10/2010 | See all Gunner2k's reviews (1)Top 100 Electronics Reviewer I bought this just under a week ago, very impressed with play.com for there very fast shipping (next day). Took the stereo out of its compact box and unwrapped it from its protective packaging to find that the stereo looked even better than on its online preview. Very sleek retro lines with a solid build quality. Took me 10 mins to set this up from opening the box to getting music and docking my iphone with the included adapters. All features work well with excellent sound quality from such a compact system. The Bass is what really impressed me as there is no distorted sounds even at max. Only thing i can really pick out on this stereo as a minor issue is that when you want to close the ipod docking door there is a little clip on the inside of the door that you need to pull towards you before you can do this.With mp3 playback via cd, usb,iphone,ipod and fm/dab/dab+ and audio in there is always something to listen to.Very pleased with my purchase and i hope this helpsSummaryDesign/Looks 9/10Sound 10/10Features 10/10
5 Quality UnitPablo69 | 26/12/2010 | See all Pablo69's reviews (86)Top 100 Music Reviewer I found the only previous review helpful. Bought this as a Christmas present and let me tell you the recipient is delighted with it. Sony in my opinion is always a safe bet and I am impressed with how the unit looks (sleek and compact). It was easy to set up including the radio channels and the sound is very good with cd/ipod& radio.All this and I got it cheaper than advertised currently excluding the vat back sony scheme. Still good value at current price (one hundred and ninety pounds) and I think it looks far more expensive than it actually is. So much so I am now considering buying one for myself.Good buy, good price, quick delivery via Play. Hope this review helps you.
5 Great Sound.Ozzy24680 | 23/11/2011 | See all Ozzy24680's reviews (5)Sounds very good for the price. This is due to it's digital class amplifier. Connects easily to my i-pod and i-phone and an absolute bargain at it's current price. Bought one for myself elsewhere and now buying another from Play as a Christmas gift for my daughter and son-in-law (Hope they don't read this review). Rich bass sounds and nice treble with all the mid range you could ask for in a unit at this price!!! With a full DAB radio to boot.

text: 5 SOUNDS GOOD TO MEHONESTBAZ | 30/10/2013 | See all HONESTBAZ's reviews (299)Top 100 Music Reviewer With several more killer tracks to get fans at gigs rocking with joy,you couldn't ask for more. A band not afraid to evolve and also visit their past, remaining true to who they are. You may need to listen to it a few times before before giving up on a band that still stands tall amongst great rock bands. Nice riffs,interesting lyrics,songs that will grow and grow till they refuse to leave your head,i'm satisfied. I like what I hear with this album that goes back a bit,remains fairly commercial without selling out and hints at the future,very smart and yet honest. I think most will be of the opinion this band still triumphs over so much of today's music.As an added note,i did buy the deluxe edition and like the extra tracks,but as for how much extra you are willing to pay for them,that's up to each buyer.

OAKLEY -- Two plays encapsulated Friday's first-round Class 2-1A football playoff contest between Elkhart and Oakley High School. In the fourth quarter, Elkhart moved 60 yards, but faced third-and-goal from the Plainsmen 5-yard line. Senior quarterback Alex Gomez rolled to his right, faced pressure from juniors Taylor Murphy and Ryan Kuhn, and threw an interception in the end zone.
On the next snap, Oakley senior running back Key Keller delivered a 43-yard run. He eventually scored from 30 yards out. Elkhart moved the ball well, but the Wildcats went 0 of 3 in the red zone. Oakley's power running game wore down Elkhart and eventually led a 42-7 victory.
Oakley senior lineman/outside linebacker Eric Rucker hurt his ankle on the game's first play, the third starter the Plainsmen have missed this season. Rucker is expected to return for next Friday's home contest against La Crosse (10-0). Last year, Oakley lost to La Crosse 20-8 in the second round on the road.
"We have had to do this all year it seems like, and it's kind of frustrating as a coach, but it's fun to see the kids grow as well," coach Randall Rath said.
Oakley, ranked No. 5 in the Class 2-1A statewide media poll, moved to 8-1 and remained Kansas' No. 1 scoring defense at just 26 points allowed.
Kuhn, the nose guard, delivered another big game with two quarterback hurries, a tackle for loss, and three combined sacks with junior linebacker Dylan Gassmann.
"Give a lot of credit to Oakley," Elkhart coach Khris Buckner said. "They are great upfront. They are very physical, they are well-coached. They caused a lot of those issues, getting penetration upfield and we had a hard time blocking them."
Entering the game, the difference between the teams came in pace. Elkhart runs a pass-heavy, up-tempo spread offense behind Gomez, who threw for 6,609 yards and 74 scores in his career. Oakley wanted to slow the game with its power-running attack; Rath set a goal of 60 plays.
Elkhart ran 76 plays, but had just 329 yards. Gomez finished 25 of 52 for 269 yards and took a vicious hit that kept him out of the game for several second-half plays. Elkhart had trouble with big plays and hurt itself with 12 penalties for 71 yards.
"The plan this week was, we would rather give up 10 yards than let a bomb go, so our goal was to just rush them, put pressure on them and let nothing over our heads," Gassmann said.
Oakley ran 61 plays for 483 yards. Senior quarterback Darius Herl rushed 14 times for 77 yards with a TD, and passed for 74 yards and a score.
Keller had 24 rushes for 258 yards and four scores of three and 11 yards in the first half and 58 and 30 after the break. Early in the game, Rath yelled "Sprint!" to Keller on acarry, an approach Keller has taken to heart.
"Over the course of the year, I have really learned how to read the hole a lot better and just sprint through it, and if there is not one, just try and lower and make a hole if I can, find my way," Keller said.
Oakley faced immediate adversity when Rucker went out early. Elkhart had some big plays, including a 26-yard pass, and couldn't convert on a wide-open play on fourth down. Multiple times, Elkhart had drops or Gomez over or underthrew his receivers.
"We missed a couple things I thought in the first half," Buckner said.
Oakley took a 20-7 at halftime after drives of 10, 10 and 18 plays. The final one took 90 yards and went 8 minutes, 53 seconds. Elkhart's lone TD came on a 32-yard pass from Gomez to junior A.J. McKinley in the back of the end zone on fourth-and-14.
Just before halftime, Elkhart moved to the Oakley 11, but Gomez's end zone pass fell incomplete.
"We haven't seen this fast-paced offense a lot," Rath said. "I don't think there is a lot of teams that run it as well as they do."
Senior Wayne Flipse stepped in for Rucker on offense, while junior Freddie Kasselman played on defense.
"We were not adjusting very well," Rath said. "We tried three different kids (defensively), but they settled down, and then we were able to go in and halftime and make some adjustments, and get a kid there that we thought was capable of doing the job."
In the second half, Keller moved the score to 26-7 on his 58-yard run and senior quarterback Darius Herl found senior Braydon Hubert for a 51-yard pass and a 34-7 lead with 3:47 left in the third quarter. Elkhart responded with a 14-play drive, but turned the ball over on downs at the Oakley 4.
Gassmann often put pressure with a double 'A' gap blitz, a formation first popularized in the NFL where a blitzer comes in on the gaps between center and guard.
Gassmann would sprint to the line, stutter-step and move right over the ball before the snap.
"I am watching the ball," Gassmann said. "I go for kind of a scare tactic and just see if they will mess up."
The double 'A' forced an incompletion on third down and then junior Mason Scheetz batted down a fourth-down pass.
"We don't like to blitz a lot, but against this team, I felt like we had to," Rath said. "We knew they were double teaming Ryan, so we slanted him out into the B gaps hard, and he had two to three guys on him, and it opened it up."

A girl who can't live with out drama bullshit in her life. She is promiscuous, cheats, lies, is selfish and uber dramatic. Negative attention is a plus for a Tovia, wears an honesty mask to fool others and has NO shame. Fairly attractive to attract many young men to give them a bad name when she is through with them. Takes pride in appearance and scandal. Doesn't relate to the words faithful, wife, humble, innocent or independent. A Tovia is capable of making many friends, as well as tearing friendships and relationships apart, is known to sleep upside down. Loves to leave her child(ren) to party and drink. Does not cope well with reality.
Dating a Tovia will bring you down,

It is Indiana's largest city and, as of the 2010 U.S. Census, is the 12th largest city in the U.S., the second largest city in the Midwest (behind Chicago), the second most populous state capital (after Phoenix, Arizona), and the most populous state capital east of the Mississippi River. Indianapolis is also one of the fastest growing regions in the United States. For much of its history, Indianapolis has oriented itself around government and industry, particularly manufacturing. Today, Indianapolis has a much more diversified economy, contributing to the fields of education, health care, and finance. Tourism is also a vital part of the economy of Indianapolis, and the city plays host to numerous conventions and sporting events. Of these, perhaps the most well known is the annual Indianapolis 500. Other major sporting events include the Brickyard 400 and the Men's and Women's NCAA Basketball Tournaments. 2012 will mark the first time Indianapolis will play host to the Super Bowl. Greater Indianapolis has seen moderate growth among U.S. cities, especially in nearby Hamilton, Hendricks, and Johnson counties.

It is located near Charles Bridge on Karlova, the Royal Way, which leads from the bridge to the Old Town Square.
St. Clement's Cathedral is a magnificent Baroque structure, built in 17111715 by A. Lurago, to the plans of architect F. M. Kaňka. It was erected around the site of a former Gothic church demolished in the 15th century.
The cathedral has a single-aisle with a divided ceiling, which holds the statue of St. Clement by F. I. Weiss. There are other statues by M. B. Braun, paintings by I. Raab, and murals of St. Clement's life placed in the dome by J. Hiebl.
The side altars, the pulpit, the confessional and the organ loft all deserve attention, with sculptures by M.B. Braun from 17161721, and a picture of St. Linhart by P.J. Brandl from the year 1716.
Stucco decorations are the work of S. Gőtzler, and the main altar was painted by J. Kramolín.
St. Clement's Cathedral is one of the most important examples of Baroque architecture in Prague, and is currently owned by the Greek Orthodox Church.
It is known for its excellent acoustics. The original Baroque organ from the 18th century is still in situ, and the church is a fine venue for classical concerts, which run throughout the year.
During the winter the interior of St. Clement's Cathedral is heated and the seats have cushions, but it is advisable to wear warm clothing for the concerts.

SXSW 2012: More Than Just Music and Movies
The music festival season is upon us once again, and this year, concertgoers the world over will be treated to some of the best tunes they've ever heard at festivals such as Banaroo, Coachella, Austin City Limits, Sasquatch, Lollapalooza, Pitchfork and North Coast. But the most well-known and well-respected festival out of all of these and more has to Austin, TX's SXSW, which officially kicks off on March 9. And of course SXSW is most known for its music, with artists from across genre boundaries once again performing this year, from emcees A$AP Rocky and Ace Hood to DJs like Diplo and Questlove. So attendees will definitely hear some of their most favorite tunes, and probably discover some of their new favorites along the way
But SXSW started going way beyond just being a music festival long ago, and with the new ways people are sharing and consuming music and media that are continuing to change day by day at such a rapid pace, the festival has taken on a whole new meaning, with lots of innovation and education on the horizon once again this year. SXSW now encompasses film, technology, talks and panel discussions, small business/start-up information, trade shows, award ceremonies, and even the re-introduction of the SXSW Mobile Go App available for attendees.
Take the SXSW Interactive Startup Village to begin with. Located primarily on the fourth floor of the Downtown Austin Hilton, the 2012 SXSW Interactive Startup Village will showcase various startup events at SXSW Interactive, including SXSW Accelerator, as well as startup-related panel discussions, Meet Ups, lounges, pitch events and even mentoring sessions. And the opportunity for entrepreneurs to meet and network with investors, media reps and digital creatives will be increased at this years' festival. The Startup Village runs from March 9-14.
Another great addition to SXSW is the second annual SXSWedu initiative, which celebrates innovations in learning and education in Austin, TX. Beginning on March 6 in the Downtown Hilton in Austin, the conference will seek to bring together teachers, administrators, university professors, business, industry and policy leaders who all share a keen interest in modernizing teaching and learning. Be sure to go to sxswedu.com for more information on the great new initiatives taking place this year.
And beyond all of this, SXSW is taking things even further with the SXSW Trade Show, a Music Gear Expo, the new ScreenBurn Arcade Stage featuring a Marvel Comics House of Ideas panel discussion, the newly christened SX Social registrant tool that lets festival goers allows search for and message other SXSW attendees, update contact information, and book hotels, and even an online interactive magazine that can be accessed right here!
It's now clear that SXSW is vying for a spot as not only the premiere American music festival, but also as a perennial, all-around music, media, entertainment and educational outlet/organization. SXSW 2012 should truly be a treat for not only music heads, but people across boundaries that obsess over advances in new media and want to discover new ways to entertain themselves. Here's hoping that all 2012 SXSW attendees have a blast and learn something in the process! Be sure to visit the official SXSW website for more news and information on this ever-growing festival powerhouse.

The Boeing Company was struggling after World War I, but Founder William Boeing and his management team pressed on, encouraging and funding the proactive research and development of many different commercial biplane designs. As it turns out, none of the new biplane designs ever made it into production. Not to be dissuaded by this unfortunate fact, Boeing continued to innovate and make history. On 3 … Read More

Prepare for the sequel to the Rodney King incident when Zimmerman gets a light sentence.
But that's ok. Let everyone loot stores, set fires, attack and kill people. Let the Black Panthers issue assassination contracts. No problem. The least the American people could do is look the other way after all we've done.
I'm just curious when reparations will finally be paid so we can all live our lives without having to bear the burden of guilt for what others did.
I'm sure one of my ancestors in Europe probably mistreated someone. I guess I should be dragged and quartered for it.

Both Jaguars starting WRs downgrade to DNP Thursday
by Joe Buscaglia
posted Nov 29 2012 4:49PM
Another day of practice down in Jacksonville, and two more Jaguars starters had to miss the session because of an injury. Interestingly enough, the two additions to the injury report just so happen to be both the team's starting wide receivers.
Rookie Justin Blackmon (groin) and Cecil Shorts III (hamstring) had to miss the session due to injury. Each player was a full participant on Wednesday. They join three other starters that were also non-participants: halfback Maurice Jones-Drew (foot), DE Austen Lane (foot) and cornerback Derek Cox (hamstring). All three did not particpate on Wednesday either.
Both defensive tackle Tyson Alualu and center Brad Meester returned to practice after missing the session on Wednesday. Alualu was limited due to a calf injury, while Meester took all normal starting reps despite a foot injury.
The Jaguars' injury report is rounded out by fullback Greg Jone (thigh) and cornerback Rashean Mathis (groin), who were each limited for the second straight day.
The Jaguars take on the Buffalo Bills at Ralph Wilson Stadium Sunday at 1 pm.

Colton Metal & Wood Wall Unit
Love this!
The photo doesn't do it justice! Not only is this cabinet adorable and sturdy, it smells good! Love, love, love it!
April 17, 2013
Rustic and practical
I bought this for my small wall space in the bathroom and it's a perfect fit. All my daughters' clutter is now tucked behind the doors and the cubbies have room for some more....
This is a great cabinet for the price and a good companion for casual or rustic decor.

Cute take on your average medicine cabinet
This medicine cabinet is adorable. I was afraid that it would look "mass-produced" but it does look pretty authentically old. And even though I thought the description said it didn't come with mounting hardware, it came with 2 wall anchors and 2 screws. But I ended up using Hercules Hooks, so install took less than 10 minutes.
My only complaint is that it looks like the 3 bottom cubbies are the same depth as the whole unit, but they are actually only about 3.5 inches deep. I had visions of putting little baskets in there, but there's not really room for that.

Is this recipe the same as Giouvetsi? I recently ate Giouvetsi @ Alexandro's Greek restaurant in Rocky Point
Long Island.
Yes - same dish, but with a slightly different spelling.
Nadia - I'll check to find which recipe you're thinking.
Thank you so much for this amazing and easy recipe. I grew up eating this type of food and never really learned how to cook it. It brings back so many memories, but the best of all, is that it is so easy to prepare. Absolutely delicious!
Delicious recipe...reminds me of happy holidays in the Greek islands!
Can you tell me how long it takes in the pan approximately to become tender?
And again how long in the oven before the liquid is absorbed?
