Recommendations from recent experiences

  • Book: The Great American Bathroom Book (2 page summaries of all time famous books... best way to know which book to buy to read the full version)
  • Movie: Inception (2010) (a brilliant concept, a complex but gripping storyline with numerous undercurrents, giving way to lots of interpretations)
  • Place: Mendocino, CA (a wonderful showcase to the breathtaking pacific coast)
  • Food: Sayur Lodeh (an Indonesian dish that is a lot like avial); tofu skin salad (looks something like this; is cold and kind of bland, but I love it!)
  • TV show: Good Eats (loads of trivia about food - one ingredient per show)
  • Online shopping: thisnext.com (has some really fun and cool designs; great for home decor and for gift shopping if you are looking to buy something that is really unique)

[HS] Yea, me really admires Alton Brown too, although sometimes his style is a little kiddish. He knows so damn much about every possible edible thing on earth!
