Chicken Kiev

Although the classic version of Chicken Kiev is deep-fat fried, you can start this version stove-top & finish it in the oven. Perfection!

See Chicken Kiev on Key Ingredient.

A Thanksgiving Poem - by Joanna Fuchs

2010-11-23T14:39:00.000-06:00

Thanksgiving Delights

On Thanksgiving Day we’re thankful for

Our blessings all year through,

For family we dearly love,

For good friends, old and new.

For sun to light and warm our days,

For stars that glow at night,

For trees of green and skies of blue,

And puffy clouds of white.

We’re grateful for our eyes that see

The beauty all around,

For arms to hug, and legs to walk,

And ears to hear each sound.

The list of all we’re grateful for

Would fill a great big book;

Our thankful hearts find new delights

Everywhere we look!

Hem Gems Instant Denim Tailors

2010-07-21T08:16:00.001-05:00

(reposted from DailyCandy.com)

When it comes to jeans, you’ve got double vision: You need two pairs ready to roll at all times (one for flats, another for heels).

Hem Gems solve the denim dilemma. The ingenious little studs are available in four styles (we prefer the classic rivets) and let you doctor any pair of pants in a snap (literally).

Just fold your jeans to the desired length, clutch the seam, and tuck the cuff up and inside. Fasten a Gem to the front, back, and either side of your pant leg.

The result: a perfect fit with no fraying. And at just $20 for an eight-pack, they’re a lot less pricey than going to a tailor. Which has us doubly excited.
