Storing Eggs

To follow up yesterday's info, thought I'd share data specific to storing eggs and foods containing eggs. Nothing too glamorous but still important to know. This would have come in handy during Easter now that I think about it if any of you colored eggs, etc. but will also be good to know for any other holiday such as 4th of July (think of macaroni salads for picnics) or Thanksgiving and Christmas (pies galore).

Leftover Storage

After my not-so-pretty experience with food poisoning, I'm paranoid about handling, cooking and storing food properly because most likely, I got myself sick. So I did a little research online and found the following information regarding storing leftovers. Some of it I already knew, some was news so hopefully this will enlighten you as well.

Review - Bierkraft 2

I know I've already talked about Bierkraft before but we had the chance to go back recently for their first annual Oyster & Beer festival. Unfortunately this was a day after I had food poisoning so the oysters were not in the stars for me but I did order one of their popular sandwiches. My husband along with a bunch of other people tried the oysters and said they were surprisingly delicious for a place that's not know for serving anything other than beer and bread.
As far as the bread/sandwich part goes, the picture below shows everything that's wrong with it. They've got the idea right by choosing great ingredients or toppings for their sandwiches but they use a beheamoth of a roll that is too thick and chewy. By the time you finish eating the sandwich (which has to be shared with someone else because it's huge), your jaw feels like it's had a jawbreaker. Nevertheless, that won't stop us from going there and sampling other goods.
