A pop is the perfect break from mowing the lawn, weeding the garden or playing in the yard. Even if you aren’t engaged in strenuous summer activity, it’s a nice treat while relaxing on the front porch. http://www.macon.com/141/story/771082.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/771082.html Tue, 07 Jul 2009 16:08 EDT MILWAUKEE — No matter what you may read in the next few paragraphs, remember this: A diamond anniversary is no mocking matter. Reaching the age of 75 is an achievement; to do it without changing much from the day you were born is this side of a miracle. http://www.macon.com/141/story/771077.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/771077.html Tue, 07 Jul 2009 16:07 EDT When the heat of summer truly sets in, it takes a lot of motivation for me to spend serious time in the kitchen. Desserts and snacks tend to be ice cream or a bowl of sliced fruit or berries. http://www.macon.com/141/story/771076.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/771076.html Tue, 07 Jul 2009 16:07 EDT There are many wonderful vegetables that people think are better left in the ground than eaten. http://www.macon.com/141/story/771107.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/771107.html Tue, 07 Jul 2009 16:08 EDT When I returned to Cuba in 1999 after 29 years, it took me days to gather the courage to drive up to Cuabitas, our old neighborhood in the mountains above Santiago, to see what had become of my mother’s childhood home. Divided between two families, it was a shadow of the graceful, mustard-colored mansion I remembered, a happy place surrounded by fruit groves lovingly tended by my grandfather, Santiago Parlade, and his daughters. http://www.macon.com/141/story/771078.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/771078.html Wed, 08 Jul 2009 00:11 EDT Presented with a glass of beer, I prefer to drink it. John Schlimm, on the other hand, teases out of beer a book’s worth of recipes for seafood, burgers, stews, steaks, roasts, sauces, mixed drinks, appetizers, soups, marinades and, while he’s at it, an eggy breakfast dish. http://www.macon.com/141/story/771080.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/771080.html Tue, 07 Jul 2009 16:06 EDT POPS RECIPES http://www.macon.com/141/story/771075.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/771075.html Tue, 07 Jul 2009 16:08 EDT BIBB COUNTY ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH http://www.macon.com/141/story/764688.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/764688.html Tue, 30 Jun 2009 21:20 EDT Whether it’s a Fourth of July poolside party or backyard barbecue, summertime is the perfect season for outdoor entertaining. While the mercury is rising, turn up the heat and flavor with my easy recipes. http://www.macon.com/141/story/764705.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/764705.html Tue, 30 Jun 2009 21:28 EDT With so many fruits in peak season by July Fourth, summery desserts almost make themselves. http://www.macon.com/141/story/764696.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/764696.html Tue, 30 Jun 2009 21:24 EDT QUESTION: Do you have a simple muffin or snack cake recipe that will use up that last handful of chocolate chips, nuts or dried fruit that we all seem to have? http://www.macon.com/141/story/764694.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/764694.html Tue, 30 Jun 2009 21:25 EDT I eat just about everything except raw tomatoes. When I tell people this, they can’t believe it. But the thought of eating raw tomatoes makes me gag. It’s always been this way. http://www.macon.com/141/story/764693.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/764693.html Tue, 30 Jun 2009 21:26 EDT When the temperature spikes on a summer day, the last thing I want to do is heat up my kitchen even more. http://www.macon.com/141/story/764689.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/764689.html Tue, 30 Jun 2009 21:22 EDT If you were going to create a winery, wouldn’t it be nice to start from scratch? You could if you were a multimillionaire businessman such as Jerry Brassfield. The son of a Fresno, Calif., rancher, he left home at 19 to found his own empire — direct sales of vitamins and nutritional supplements in 50 countries, half a dozen car dealerships, restaurant stock. http://www.macon.com/141/story/764691.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/764691.html Tue, 30 Jun 2009 21:22 EDT Coleslaw is a summer staple with almost as many recipes as there are heads of cabbage. http://www.macon.com/141/story/764706.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/764706.html Tue, 30 Jun 2009 21:26 EDT BIBB COUNTY ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH http://www.macon.com/141/story/764682.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/764682.html Tue, 30 Jun 2009 21:23 EDT TEDDI'S RECIPES http://www.macon.com/141/story/757440.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/757440.html Tue, 23 Jun 2009 22:44 EDT Frozen desserts are a great way to beat the summer heat, but all the fat in ice cream makes it more suitable for an occasional treat than a daily cooler. http://www.macon.com/141/story/757430.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/757430.html Tue, 23 Jun 2009 22:44 EDT Salad — be it noodle salad or potato salad or salad made with fruit or vegetables — is a mainstay for picnics, potlucks and all-around summer entertaining. http://www.macon.com/141/story/757426.html http://www.macon.com/141/story/757426.html Tue, 23 Jun 2009 22:35 EDT Temple Carpenter vividly recalls the chocolate chip cookies at the Forum Cafeteria in the Dadeland Mall about 40 years ago. “They were bigger than my whole head and cost 25 cents, or at least that’s how I remember it,” she wrote.
