YVONNE&YVETTETIQUETTE: March 2015
http://www.yvonneandyvettetiquette.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 31, 2015. THINK BEFORE YOU YELP By Yvonne. 8220;What does “Yelp” mean? 8221; asked a friend whose first language is French. 8220;It’s what little dogs do to get attention,” I explained. And then I yelped a few times to demonstrate to her how annoying it is. And so are many comments on Yelp. They are also mean, spiteful and are the handiwork of people with not much going on in their lives. Except to try and gain some kind of voice by trashing establishments and the people who work in them.

YVONNE&YVETTETIQUETTE: April 2015
http://www.yvonneandyvettetiquette.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 28, 2015. TO CLAP OR NOT TO CLAP, PART II BY YVONNE. I wrote a post on applause. From the point of view of an audience member. This week, a dancer is gives his thoughts on the subject. I promised him that I wouldn’t reveal his name. All I can divulge is that he’s one of the finest dancers in the world and has been a principal dancer at two of the leading ballet companies in the world. Do you think any time is the right time for applause? Has clapping ever affected your performance? That ni...

Shrimp13's Blog: Pasta with Linguica and Peas
http://shrimp13tucson.blogspot.com/2011/04/pasta-with-linguica-and-peas.html
Friday, April 8, 2011. Pasta with Linguica and Peas. I found a recipe entitled the above and just ran with the title as my guide. The pasta we used was De Cecco Cavatappi which is a particularly toothsome pasta, our new favorite pasta shape in the house. Pasta with Linguica and Peas. 2 tablespoons olive oil. 1 onion, chopped. 3 cloves garlic, minced. 4 links linguica removed from their casings. 1 big pinch red pepper flakes. 1 jar of your favorite simple spaghetti sauce. 1 cup frozen peas. This is the sp...

Shrimp13's Blog: Gizzards and Green Bananas - Dominican Style
http://shrimp13tucson.blogspot.com/2011/02/gizzards-and-green-bananas-dominican.html
Tuesday, February 1, 2011. Gizzards and Green Bananas - Dominican Style. Searching for gizzard recipes, like I do, I ran across a comment to a question about what to do with them. It was simply; braised with onions, peppers, green olives, and green bananas - Dominican style. Gizzards and Green Bananas - Dominican Style. 1 medium onion, sliced thinly. 1 large red bell pepper, sliced thinly. 3 Serrano peppers, minced. 1 cup or so red wine. 3 cloves garlic, minced. 1 teaspoon dried oregano. Chicken gizzards...

http://shrimp13tucson.blogspot.com/2011/01/fried-chicken-giblets-in-lime-juice.html
Wednesday, January 26, 2011. Fried Chicken Giblets in Lime Juice. Chicken gizzards and hearts mostly gizzards. Are super cheap and at my grocery store they were frozen so as not to have the stigma of clearance meat mentioned Monday. I was browsing the internet for a method and stumbled upon this recipe. The house still smells of onions and anise which doesn't bug me a bit. Fried Chicken Giblets in Lime Juice. 2 cups chicken giblets. 2 tablespoons butter (the original recipe called for ghee). Add salt, pe...

Shrimp13's Blog: Serbian Stuffed Grilled Chicken Thighs
http://shrimp13tucson.blogspot.com/2013/01/serbian-stuffed-grilled-chicken-thighs.html
Thursday, January 17, 2013. Serbian Stuffed Grilled Chicken Thighs. I just saw this on Steven Raichlen's Primal Grill. On an episode dedicated to European grilling techniques. Mr. Raichlen used the side of a cleaver to flatten the thighs for stuffing. I use a big rubber mallet. I cooked it from memory so I left out the garlic salt. Ingredients (as cooked, from memory, by me):. 3 slices bacon, fried and crumbled. Reserved bacon fat from the frying. About 1/2 cup diced ham. About 1/2 cup diced cheddar.

Shrimp13's Blog: Chicken & Winter Squash Stew
http://shrimp13tucson.blogspot.com/2013/01/chicken-winter-squash-stew.html
Tuesday, January 29, 2013. Chicken and Winter Squash Stew. I have made this with store bought British style curry powder and with a blend of north African spices. This time I tried Punjabi garam masala from 660 Curries. It worked great. Something about the combination of chicken, squash and warming spices really works. Savory! I used this recipe when experimenting with cooking with a Jack-o-Lantern pumpkin. Complete failure. Jack-o-Lantern pumpkin is flavorless and stringy. 1 1/2 tablespoons garam masala.

http://shrimp13tucson.blogspot.com/2013/01/cochinita-puerco-pibil.html
Monday, January 21, 2013. Rick Bayless' recipe from Mexican Everyday. Calls for 1/2 a package of achiote seasoning. I had ground achiote so I had to source a recipe for an adobo online. I found this one. 6 serrano peppers, chopped. 1 head garlic, peeled and chopped. 3 tablespoons ground achiote. 2 tablespoons ground cumin. 1 tablespoon ground black pepper. 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice. 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves. 1/2 cup orange juice. 4 tablespoons kosher salt. Juice of 5 limes. 5 pound pork shoulder.
