I enjoy doing a wide range of outdoor activities, but as Ive gotten older I realize that I can break them down to just a few that I do often. Hiking the paths of the nearby state parks, kayaking quiet waters, and the occasional combination trip with a pup and a fishing rod. Having "that job" that only gives me weekdays off tends to make activities like those listed- solo adventures.

Crafty Christmas
Looking for some fun activities to do with your friends for the holiday's? Today we have a guest blogger, Sarah, who will share how she hosts an ornament swap party and tips to make it successful!
Tips for a Successful Ornament Swap
Tip 1 Make it special! Everyone loves getting mail (especially when it's not bills). So why not send out an invitation ahead of time? It's a personal touch that makes people feel welcome and know that they're in for a real treat. Here's what mine looked like:
Tip 2 Do your research! There are great websites available for you to browse for ideas. Check out websites like MyNextStyle.com and Pinterest! It's always good to have some ideas in advance for what you want to craft. Remember, as the host, your guests will looking to you for ideas and inspiration. I sent this with my invites:
Tip 3 Be clean! For easy clean up after your party, cover your work space with paper. Craft paper rolls are available online or at any craft store. If you don't have any on hand, you can use gift wrap (the blank side or printed side) or even paper towels. For our party, we covered the table in craft paper and for a fun added touch, wrote the lyrics to "Deck the Halls" (just in case anyone didn't know :))
Tip 4 Organize! When setting up for your party, be sure to organize your craft materials into different categories. For our party, we separated materials into the following groups:
>Paints and Brushes
>Yarn and Cording
>Glitter and Glitter Glue
>Poms and Fuzzy Sticks
>Friendship Thread
Tip 5 Make it Easy! After categorizing your supplies, make it easy and accessible for your guests to pick through by displaying in different crates, boxes or bins. It's good to put supplies in boxes or bins so they can easily be moved around the table or into other rooms. This year our party was so big that we had to craft in the living room as well.
Be sure to name all of the craft supplies so your guests know what everything is. For our party, we jumped on the craft paper and wood trend and made simple, hand written tags on craft paper then attached with a wooden clothespin.
Tip 6 Make it Fun! Have your guests each bring an appetizer or dessert and at least one blank ornament. As the host, be sure to have extra ornaments in case your guests feel like crafting more than one. For this year's party, we provided clear glass and plastic ornaments in different sizes and shapes as well as wood ornaments. We placed all of the ornaments, as well as our guest's ornaments into a basket that everyone was able to pick from throughout the night. As we crafted, we munched on all of the treats that everyone brought.
Tip 7 Be Festive! To welcome guests, be sure to have your halls decked! We throw our party a day or two after Thanksgiving every year. It's a great way to kick off the holiday season. We made sure that our wreaths were hung, our lights were lit and our holiday music was playing. This year, we even welcomed guests with a hot cocoa bar.
Tip 8 Craft! Craft! Craft! After your guests grab a bite to eat, catch up with everyone and grab a mug of hot cocoa or a glass of wine, it's time to get settled. Be sure to welcome your guests by thanking them for coming and explain where all of the supplies are located and how to use them. Take this time to tell your friends about any cool new trends, ideas or techniques you may have researched and tried out. This year, we made sure to talk about some new supplies and crafting techniques such as glass staining, etching and crayon melting.
Tip 9 Go Time! Grab an ornament and start crafting. You'll be surprised how "into it" your guests will get. It's a great time to sit around and catch up on life while creating a hand-made craft for your friends and family. This year characters and animals were big. One of our guests made each of her ornaments into different animals! The pig and penguin were definitely the big hits!
Tip 10 Time to Swap! Once everyone is finished and getting ready to leave (we warn you this could turn into a VERY late night), it's time to swap. Everyone writes their name on a piece of paper and puts it in a bowl. Each person decides on ONE ornament that they are willing to swap. Each guest takes turns picking a name out of the bowl and gets the ornament of the person that they pick. Your guests will walk away with a full belly, new memories and an ornament that represents that holiday year.
This year was our 3rd annual Ornament Swap! It's a tradition that our friends look forward to continuing each year. Cheers to everyone that came, crafted and kept the tradition going!

TWD: Apple Streusel Muffins
This week's Tuesdays with Dorie was selected by Katrina of Baking and Boys: apple nut muffin cake. Somehow September turned into October, and Shane and I still have not had a chance to get to the orchard for some apple picking (something we'll hopefully remedy this coming weekend), so this is the first apple treat of the fall. I'm getting a late start this year but this was a great way to kick off the apple baking. Not only are there apples in the recipe, but other ingredients that make me think of fall baking like cider, cinnamon, oats and raisins.
I took a few liberties with the recipe. Dorie mentions in the headnote that she originally planned to make muffins from this recipe but ending up throwing the batter into a square baking pan at the last minute because she was in a rush. I wasn't in the mood for a square cake so I stuck with her muffin plan, which worked out great. A half recipe yielded 9 muffins for me. I omitted the nuts in the recipe as well as the raisins - the former because I don't like them, and the latter because when I opened my box of raisins they were hard little rocks. I probably could have soaked them in boiling water to plump them up, but it was already nearing midnight and I was tired, so I just left them out entirely. Finally, I couldn't resist adding a streusel topping - muffins with streusel topping are my favorite! The baking time for my muffins was short - probably only about 13-14 minutes, as compared to the 30-35 suggested for the cake.
The muffins were as delicious as I hoped they'd be! Very moist and tender with a little added texture thanks to the streusel on top. Definitely a great fall breakfast :) Many thanks to Katrina for hosting this week! She shared the recipe for the cake on her blog today and I'm including the streusel recipe I used below.
Streusel Topping
barely adapted from Smitten Kitchen
(Note: Make the streusel first and set it aside while you make the muffin batter)
1/4 cup (31 grams) all-purpose flour
1/4 cup (28 grams) white whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon (13 grams) granulated sugar
3 tablespoons (38 grams) light brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
pinch of salt
3 tablespoons (42 grams) unsalted butter, melted
To make the streusel: Stir the flours, sugars, cinnamon and salt together in a small bowl. Add the melted butter and stir until the mixture is crumbly.

I was concerned that my muffins would be blah without a topping, but they were great plain. I'm sure they were that much better with streusel topping though!

What a great idea to make them with streusel! I can relate to the late night baking-I find I'm always out of SOMETHING when I bake late or early.

How funny--I added streusel to mine, too! I did a square pan, though. I figured the cake needed something on top because I left out the raisins and nuts, too. =) I love the wrappers--I just picked up a package of those a couple weeks ago, but haven't had a chance to use them for anything yet.

I just bought a big pack of apples at Costco and have been thinking about what do with them. Streusel makes all muffins better! I would love to have one of these for breakfast. Can't wait to bake with my apples.

Who knows twenty-one?Please cite/link your sources, if possible. After about one business day, I will:
Twenty-one are the books of Tanach that use the "normal" system of trop (cantillation). (Actually, 21 and a fraction, since the first 36 and the last 11 verses of Iyov - the framing narrative - use it too.) | |||||||||||||||||
Twenty-one are the days when we recite the complete Hallel (outside of Israel): the first two days of Pesach (and according to some customs, also the first two nights), two days of Shavuos, nine of Sukkos/Shemini Atzeres/Simchas Torah, and eight of Chanukah. (Erachin 10a) | |||||||||||||
21 are the days between the seventeenth of Tammuz and the ninth of Av. | ||||
There are twenty-one sins for which one can get kares or lashes, but not court-imposed death. Source: Rambam, Sanhedrin 19. | |||
The letters engraved into the luchot cut through from one side to the other. The holes in the center of the letters Mem and Samech (ם & ס) were held up by a miracle. This occurs 21 times on each side of the luchot (& only in the first five commandments). (Parshat Va'etchanan) | |||
Twenty-one is the Gematria of "ach", which serves to diminish. When it says the Flood left "ach Noach", the diminution combined with the onomatopoeia indicate that Noah was retching blood. (Yuck!) | |||
21 is the public drinking age (in the U.S. http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/23/158.html ) and this is enforced by all states with many making exceptions for under 21 drinking in private settings, small groups, parental permission and for sacramental (kiddush, havadalah, bris milah, etc.) purposes. | |||||||||||||||||
21 are the days of dealing with tzara'as (in most cases). | |||
Twenty-one is the age below which the Rambam recommend medically against drinking alcohol. (Better late than never?) | |||||||||||||
Twenty-one (exactly) are the books of Tanach that, when read publicly, are concluded with their actual last verse. (Trei Asar (Malachi), Koheles, and Eicha all end on a sufficiently depressing verse that we re-read the penultimate one.) (Thanks for the idea, Alex!) | |||||||||||||||||

Rihanna is edgy we get it. But that Ronald McDonald version of a bad bowl cut shiz on her head is an offense to my delicate corneas. Regardless, she got another tattoo and plopped it on her neck. It says "rebelle fleur" which translates properly to "flower rebel." Popeater points out that she probably meant it to say "fleur rebelle" which would mean "rebel flower."
Perhaps she is a "flower rebel" and secretly harbors a hatred of petunias.

Using your credit cards wisely is largely a matter of being informed - e.g., how much your card company is charging you for credit - and by following some simple tips for using the card.
Known as the Credit CARD Act of 2009, the Credit Card Accountability Responsibility and Disclosure Act of 2009 went into effect on February 22, 2010. The legislation strengthens consumer protection in the credit card market and is a comprehensive reform measure to protect credit card holders in the US against unfair interest rate hikes and hidden fees. Specifically, the legislation addresses:
Even with the new law in place, consumers should still be wary and shop around for the credit card that's best for them.
To choose a credit card wisely, you must first review and understand the terms and features of the various cards. This can add up to very respectable savings over a period of time. In addition, you should also know how use your cards wisely to keep your costs to a minimum. The Financial Guide explains how to achieve these goals.
Chances are you have received offers in the mail asking if you would like to open credit card accounts. Frequently, these offers say that you have been "pre-approved" for the card, often with a very attractive interest rate (usually, a short-term "low-ball" rate) and with a line of credit purportedly set aside for your use (although few people ultimately qualify for the credit line in the promotional literature). Typically, these offers urge you to accept quickly, "before the offer expires." However, before accepting a credit card offer, understand the card's credit terms and compare costs of similar cards to get the terms and features you want.
Making an informed decision about a credit card is largely a matter of finding out what the actual cost of credit is under that card. Credit cards involve not only a "finance charge" - a charge for the convenience of borrowing - but usually other, less obvious charges as well.
Learn which credit terms and conditions apply. Each affects the overall cost of the credit you will be using. Due to the provisions of the Fair Credit and Charge Card Disclosure Act (1998), you can compare terms and fees before you agree to open a credit card or charge card (no interest) account. Be sure to consider and compare the terms listed below, which both direct-mail applications and pre-approved solicitations must reveal.
Which card is best for you may depend on how you plan to use it. If you plan to pay bills in full each month, the size of the annual fee or other fees, and not the periodic and annual percentage rate, may be more important. If you expect to use credit cards to pay for purchases over time, the APR and the balance computation method are important terms to consider. In either case, keep in mind that your costs will also be affected by the grace period.
The "annual percentage rate," or APR, is disclosed to you when you apply for a card, again when you open the account, and on each bill you receive. It is a measure of the cost of credit, expressed as a yearly rate.
The card issuer also must disclose the "periodic rate," the rate the card issuer applies to your outstanding account balance to figure the finance charge for each billing period.
Some credit card plans allow the card issuer to change the annual percentage rate on your account when interest rates or other economic indicators (called indexes) change. Because the rate change is linked to the performance of the index, which may rise or fall, these plans are commonly called "variable rate" plans. Rate changes raise or lower the amount of the finance charge you pay on your account. If the credit card you are considering has a variable rate feature, the card issuer must tell you that the rate may vary and how the rate is determined, including which index is used and what additional amount (the "margin") is added to the index to determine your new rate. You also must be told how much and how often your rate may change.
Related Guide: If you find yourself in financial trouble, please see the Financial Guide: GETTING OUT OF FINANCIAL TROUBLE: Steps You Can Take.
A grace period allows you to avoid the finance charge by paying your current balance in full before the due date shown on your statement. Knowing whether a credit card plan gives you a grace period and the length of this period is especially important if you plan to pay your account in full each month.
If there is no grace period, the card issuer will impose a finance charge from the date you use your credit card or from the date each credit card transaction is posted to your account. If your credit card allows a grace period, the card issuer must mail your bill at least 14 days before your payment is due. This policy ensures that you have enough time to make your payment by the due date.
Caution: The grace period is generally misleading. The period does not start when the statement is mailed and end when your check is received, as many consumers believe. In fact, it usually starts a few days before the statement is mailed and ends a few days after the payment is received, based on certain accounting dates adopted by the credit card company. Consequently, a 25-day grace period (a fairly common period) for paying the statement may water down to a much shorter period.
More than nine out of 10 cards (95 percent) had no annual fee in 2011 up from 90 percent in 2010 according to BankRate.com, making it easier than ever to find a credit card with no annual fee. On credit cards that did carry annual fees, the fees ranged from $15 to $39.
A credit card also may involve other types of fees. For example, some card issuers charge a fee when you use the card to obtain a cash advance, when you fail to make a payment on time (late fees), or when you go over your credit limit (over-limit fees). The Credit CARD Act of 2009 also addresses
The Credit CARD Act of 2009 specifically addresses late fees and over-limit fees in that card holders must be given at least 21 days from the time of mailing to pay their bill and all late fee "traps" such as weekend deadlines and due dates that change each month are eliminated. In addition, the law helps consumers avoid over-limit fees because issuing institutions must now obtain a consumer's permission to process transactions that would place the account over the limit.
Balance transfer fees are incurred when balances are transferred from high interest credit cards to lower interest cards. Fees for balance transfers are typically based on a percentage of the amount being transferred (typically 3% or 5%), with limits on minimum or maximum fee amounts. Many credit card issuers offer zero percent interest on balance transfers for the first six to 12 months that revert to regular interests rates at the end of the promotion period.
Other types of fees can include foreign transaction fees, fees for receiving a copy of monthly statements, replacing lost cards, or for using the credit card as a source of funds for overdraft protection.
If your plan has no grace period or if you expect to pay for purchases over time, it is important to know how the card issuer will calculate your finance charge. This charge will vary depending upon the method the card issuer uses to figure your balance. The method used can make a difference, sometimes a big difference, in how much finance charge you will pay-even when the APR is identical to that charged by another card issuer and the pattern of purchases and payments is the same.
Thanks to the Credit CARD Act of 2009, credit card issuers are now required to show consumers on their periodic statements how long it would take to pay off the existing balance – and the total interest cost – if the consumer paid only the minimum due, as well as the payment amount and total interest cost to pay off the existing balance in 36 months.
The average daily balance method (including or excluding new purchases) gives you credit for your payment from the day the card issuer receives it. To compute the balance due, the card issuer totals the beginning balance for each day in the billing period and deducts any payments credited to your account that day. New purchases may or may not be added to the balance, depending on the plan, but cash advances typically are added. The resulting daily balances are added up for the billing cycle and the total is then divided by the number of days in the billing period to arrive at the "average daily balance." This is the most common method used by credit card issuers.
This balance is computed by subtracting the payments you made and any credits you received during the present billing period from the balance you owed at the end of the previous billing period. New purchases that you made during the billing period are not included. Under the adjusted balance method, you have until the end of the billing cycle to pay part of your balance and you avoid the interest charges on that portion. Some creditors exclude prior, unpaid finance charges from the previous balance. The adjusted balance method usually is the most advantageous to card users.
As the name suggests, this balance is simply the amount that you owed at the end of the previous billing period. Payments, credits, or new purchases made during the current billing period are not taken into account. Some creditors also exclude unpaid finance charges in computing this balance. If you do not understand how the balance on your account is computed, ask the card issuer. (An explanation of how the balance was determined must appear on the billing statements the card issuer provides you and on applications and pre-approved solicitations the card issuer may send you.)
When shopping for a credit card, you probably will want to look at other factors besides cost, such as whether the credit limit is high enough to meet your needs, how widely the card is accepted, and what services and features are available under the plan. You may be interested, for example, in "affinity cards," all-purpose credit cards that are sponsored by professional organizations, college alumni associations, and some members of the travel industry. Frequently, an affinity card issuer donates a portion of the annual fees or transaction charges to the sponsoring organization or allows you to qualify for free travel or other bonuses.
"While the interest rate is a major factor in determining your interest cost, the method of computing the balance to which the interest rate is applied can also be significant. The following table shows how your interest cost can vary when the Average Daily Balance, Adjusted Balance and Previous Balance methods are used."
$50 on the 18th day
$300 on 15th day (new balance = $100)
$4.05 (1-1/2% of $270)
$3.75 (1-1/2% of $250)
* To figure average daily balance (including new purchases):
($400 x 15 days) + ($100 x 3 days) + ($150 x 12 days) divided by 30 days = $270
** To figure average daily balance (excluding new purchases):
($400 x 15 days) + ($100 x 15 days) divided by 30 days = $250
$1.50 (1-1/2% of $100)
$6.00 (1-1/2% of $400)
As you can see, the finance charge varies based upon which balance is used and whether new purchases are included or excluded.
The use of rebate and rewards cards has grown rapidly. Costco for example sponsors a credit card (Costco Cash Rebate card) that give rebates on the cost of merchandise you buy with the card once you spend a certain amount. You usually get larger rebates on the sponsoring company's products and lower rebates on other card charges. Credit card solicitations promise cash, frequent-flier miles or points that will buy everything from hotel rooms to gas.
Tip: You will get a good deal from a rebate card if you spend a lot, and if you pay your bill in full each month. If you carry a balance on the card, what you gain in rebates you will lose in the excessive interest charged by credit cards.
Here are some suggestions for the use of credit cards:
1. Pay bills promptly to keep finance charges as low as possible.
Tip: Keep copies of sales slips and promptly compare charges when your bills arrive.
2. Keep a list of your credit card account numbers, telephone numbers of each card issuer, and login information (if you pay your credit cards online) in a safe place in case your cards are lost or stolen.
3. Protect your credit cards and account numbers to prevent unauthorized use.
Tip: Draw a line through blank spaces above the total when you sign receipts. Rip up or retain carbons.
4. Deal only with reliable firms. Check with your local consumer protection agency or the Better Business Bureau (BBB) closest to where the business is located. Study the advertising offer carefully. Ask the company about its warranty, refund and exchange policies. If you cannot get the answers to your questions, or there are any doubtful claims, don't buy.
5. Never Send Cash. Never give out your credit, debit charge card, or bank account number unless you have checked out the company or have done business with them before.
Tip: Try to pay by charge or credit card, so that you have record in the event of a dispute with the merchant.
If there is a problem with your order, for instance if you were billed for the wrong amount, you never got the product, the goods arrived in damaged condition, or the merchandise or services were misrepresented, then try to resolve it by following these steps:
When you have charged your purchase, you are entitled to a response to your complaint within 30 days, and the problem must be resolved within two billing cycles (but not more than 90 days). If you used a debit card, you are entitled to a response within 10 days. However, if the financial institution that issued the card needs more time, it may take up to 45 days, provided it credits your account with the disputed amount until the dispute is resolved.
Related Guide: For a listing of what merchants are allowed to ask, please see the Financial Guide: MERCHANT CREDIT CARD ABUSES: What They Cannot Ask You To Do
Write immediately to the company from whom you ordered, explaining the problem and asking for a specific resolution. Be sure to include your name, address, and daytime phone number, your order or invoice number, copy of canceled check, or any other helpful information about your purchase. You generally have 60 days after receiving a bill to dispute charges. Pay any other charges on your bill that you are not disputing.

Video Log Charles M. Baffo World War Two USAAF Born: 09/21/1922 Interview Date: 02/12/2010 Interviewed By: Kevin Moore 00:00:00 Introduction 00:00:41 Baffo enlisted at age nineteen when he enlisted. He had recently graduated high school when Pearl Harbor was attacked. Although he had earned football scholarships, he did not have enough money to pursue a degree. 00:02:17 Baffo describes the myriad of life events that shaped his decision to enlist. 00:02:45 Between high school graduation and entry into the service, he worked at a plant that manufactured radial engines, next door to Republic, the corporation that designed and produced the P-47 Thunderbolt. 00:03:06 The Air Force sent recruiters through the shops, selecting experienced workmen as well as those with two years of college experience. Although Baffo had not attended college at that point, his scholarships prompted the Air Force to interview him. It took almost a year for his induction. 00:03:38 He signed up for the Air Force in 02/1942, then spent almost a year as an aircraft engine inspector, at which point the Air Force summoned him for a formal review. 00:04:14 Baffo was inducted in Upton, Long Island, but began his service in Nashville, Tennessee, where he endured basic evaluations of Air Force physical and vocational requirements. If you fell below the standard, you were sent downriver to Biloxi, Mississippi, for Army training. 00:04:32 At the time, the Air Force / Air Corps was an organ of the United States Army. 00:04:58 He had never flown prior to enlistment in the Air Force. 00:05:28 In June of 1943, he was sent to Montgomery, Alabama, to attend ground school: communications, navigation, aircraft maintenance and aerodynamics. Two months later, he was sent to Helena, Arkansas, for flight training. The Army Air Force had leased a private airfield for training purposes. Afterwards, there were two more phases of training, comprising primary, basic, and advanced flight

Modern and Contemporary Art Corps de dame, jardin fleuri (Lady's Body, Flower Garden) 1950 Jean Dubuffet, French, 1901 - 1985 Oil on canvas * Gallery 174, Modern and Contemporary Art, first floor (Tuttleman Gallery) 2008-13-1 Gift of the Pierre and Maria-Gaetana Matisse Foundation, 2008 |
LabelDerived from the French word for formless, the term Art Informel gained currency during the early 1950s to describe the new expressive gestural styles adopted by artists like Jean Dubuffet, Karel Appel, Emilio Vedova, and others. Between April 1950 and February 1951, Dubuffet created over thirty-five paintings on the subject of Corps de dames, or "Ladies' Bodies." When a group of these works were exhibited at the Pierre Matisse Gallery, New York, in January 1951, a critic described the crude, primitive, graffiti-like representations of the female form as having been "flattened out by a steamroller and allowed to dry in the sun for quite some time."* Works in the collection are moved off view for many different reasons. Although gallery locations on the website are updated regularly, there is no guarantee that this object will be on display on the day of your visit. |

Global Appliance Leader to Exhibit at Design & Construction Week™
ALPHARETTA, Ga., Nov. 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) is pleased to announce the return of appliance manufacturer, Viking Range, to KBIS 2014, at Design & Construction Week™, to be held February 4-6, 2014 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Often referred to as the creator of "appliance lust", Viking Range, the originator of ultra-premium commercial-style appliances for residential use, is credited with establishing a new category of home appliances.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20131101/PH08831LOGO )
"We feel strongly that KBIS is a great venue to reconnect with residential design and construction professionals," said Tim Tyler, Viking Director of Marketing. "The design community is critically important to our success and we are excited to be a part of the premier industry event for the kitchen & bath industry, where the best and the brightest congregate."
The co-location of KBIS with the International Builders' Show (IBS) to create the mega-event, Design & Construction Week™, is one reason why many brands, like Viking Range have returned to the show. As of October 15, 2013, the KBIS 2014 show floor was filled, however, show producers have identified additional space to accommodate a waiting list of manufacturers desiring a location. Combined, KBIS and IBS will welcome over 1,600 exhibitors, within 600,000 sq ft of shared exhibit space. The event is expected to draw over 70,000 residential design and construction professionals. Over 20 related professional associations are also participating.
"To say we are thrilled Viking has chosen to return to KBIS after a five year absence would be an understatement," said John Morgan, President, of the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA). "Their renewed commitment to the KBIS brand underscores the value KBIS brings, not only to Viking but attendees as well – inspiring, educating, and engaging the industry."
Since the opening of registration September 1, 2013, there has been an overwhelming response from all segments – designers, remodelers, builders, showrooms and exhibitors. KBIS and Design & Construction Week™ are shaping up to be an unforgettable experience. Attendees who register for an Expo Pass (Show Floor Only) will receive admittance to KBIS, as well as the International Builders' Show (IBS) and the International Window Coverings Expo (IWCE), all located at the Las Vegas Convention Center. To register as an attendee, please visit the KBIS Registration Portal.
About KBIS
KBIS, in conjunction with the National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA) is an inspiring, interactive platform that showcases the latest industry products, trends and technologies. KBIS is the voice of the kitchen and bath industry and has been for 50 years.
Early in 2013, the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) and National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) announced an agreement to co-locate the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) with the International Builders' Show (IBS) in Las Vegas, Nevada beginning in February 2014 under the banner of "Design and Construction Week." The new mega-event will be held Feb. 4-6, 2014, in Las Vegas with each show occupying a separate hall. Kitchen and bath brands that have participated in both shows can choose to exhibit in the KBIS or IBS hall. One pass will provide access to both exhibits. NKBA and NAHB will continue to produce separate educational programming and special events.

The amazing thing about this subzi is, it is really simple to make– in fact, I made it with a bag of frozen cauliflower florets and a few old spices. It took a minimum of effort, delivered a power-packed flavor punch and tons of nutrition because — like its cruiciferous siblings broccoli, brussels sprouts, cabbage, collards and kale– cauliflower is a super-veggie that can help you ward off cancer. Now those are my kind of eats.
It's a weeknight and I need to get ready for bed, so I'll make this an uncharacteristically super-short post. But I'll be seeing you around soon!
(Serves 4)
1 16-oz bag of frozen cauliflower florets, thawed
1 cup tomato puree
2 tsp coriander powder
1 tsp cumin powder
1 onion, diced
6 cloves of garlic, thinly sliced
1 tsp grated ginger
1 tsp cumin seeds
1 tsp red chilli powder (use more or less if you want to change the amount of heat)
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
2 tsp canola or other vegetable oil
1/2 cup chopped scallions/spring onions or 1/4 cup chopped coriander leaves
Heat the oil in a skillet
Add the onions and saute until they just begin to brown.
Add the ginger and garlic and saute for a few seconds until the garlic is fragrant.
Add the turmeric, chilli, coriander and cumin powders and stir into the oil.
Add the tomato puree and saute until the tomato turns a few shades darker and begins to express the oil.
Add the cauliflower, stir well to coat the cauliflower with the tomato puree, add salt to taste. When the mixture comes to a simmer, turn down the heat, cover the skillet, and cook about 15 minutes or until the cauliflower is quite tender but not mushy.
Add more salt if needed. Turn off the heat. Garnish with some chopped spring onions or coriander leaves.
Enjoy with some rotis or parathas or some rice and dal.
