Little Chef

Do you have a little chef? If your kids are anything like mine they love to help cook. Well, they try! Using the big utensils is a bit of a challenge for those little hands. I found this website  food network during my search for kid sized utensils.
The Food Network Store features awesome items from a company by the name of Sassafras. Sassafras makes The Little Cook Tool Kit. It is priced at less than $20. It has received good reviews and is recommended by 95% of its reviewers. So we tried it. And my little guys love it! They are able to help and use little cooking tools that are just the right size for them, it is adorable. I highly recommend this item. The holiday season is upon us and this would make a great gift for your little chef.


The Food Network Store also offers a wide variety of items from cook books to kitchen ware and recipes.

Closing Time!!

So it is late and you are hungry! And you just have to have a specific something from a certain restaurant. But you now that closing time is soon. The question is do you still go to get the specific something from that certain place at the end of the night? Well, the answer is yes and no. As long as you are aware that sitting in a restaurant after it has closed is not cool! It is likely that your server has been there most of the day, they are tired and still once you have left they have to clean and close the restaurant. This server is also more than likely to be a college student, mother/father working the opposite shift of their spouse, someone with a second job trying to make ends meet or all of the above. So when you decide that you JUST can't have anything else to eat, but what that specific place offers - keep those things in mind. Yes, you can go and get something to eat, but be considerate enough to get it to go. Don't hang around the restaurant for an hour after it has closed. And if you MUST, tip your server very well.

Did you just snap your fingers at me?!?

To state it plainly for those who don't already know it, snapping your fingers at anyone to get their attention is rude. Granted there are times when people are just not being attentive, but those are not the moments I am speaking of. What I am talking about is when your waitress or waiter is taking another tables order and you are snapping your fingers as if they are just ignoring you. NO, it is not okay. There is nothing that important for you to be so rude. Get it together people! Common courtesy is a must when you are in public. Don't embarrass your friends and family because you think that your waiter or waitress is somehow a lesser being than you. Just because they are serving you food and drinks doesn't make them your servant. Treat thy neighbor.....

Your way !

Okay, so you want it your way. While the chef, who has trained to prepare an impeccable dish for you has provided YOU with perfection, it is not good enough. If you are That person then you should never go out to eat. Stay home and cook your own food. It is not necessary to act like an arrogant jerk because you are dining at a 5 star restaurant. Be considerate!
