general I learned some good things yesterday

…from Lisa’s copy of Cook’s Illustrated, a wonderful magazine with no ads.

One: If you spray Pam on the cheese grater before you start, it will work easier and not get its holes all full of cheddar gunk.

Two: If you heat up a bowl in the oven or in hot water before you serve fettucine alfredo in it, the sauce will stay creamy longer.

Three: A sippy cup is an excellent serving tool for vinaigrette.

Also there were pretty drawings of peppers on the back.
