I need to buy Toaster Strudels next time we go grocery shopping -- a guilty pleasure. ;)

Pickled tomatoes? Hmmm, I love pickled items but have never tried tomatoes.

I have that same A to Z cookbook. It's about 30 years old!

Love this. Totally stealing it. Composting is awesome and as soon as I have a home with a place where I can do it again ... totally doing that.

Oh, and have you seen www.omnomnomnom.com. You must go there. Hysterical.
