Some drool-worthy food sites I've recently found.
Bento Moblog
Warning:image heavy. Fellow anthropologist M. Ito photo-documents the daily bento-lunches she makes for her children. Too cool! And a link to her thoughtful essay on the culture of bento.
Holy Shitake
A foodie's blog. Good recipe experiments and interesting menu encounters. Love the June 10th entry: Cheese ball-encrusted chicken cordon bleu recipe. Yum!
Well, now that I know how to knit....

Yep, you''ll just have to click on it and see what it is.
And you might as well check out the rest of Knitty's summer issue while you're at it, since there is more of the same!
Just a hint to all the guys out there who have personals ads:
When selecting a photo to use on your profile, don't choose one from your wedding day, no matter how long ago you were married.
Gak.
Hee! I laughed so hard I snorted. Here's an excerpt from The Atlantic's article,
Laws Concerning Food and Drink:
When you chew your food, keep your mouth closed until you have swallowed, and do not open it to show your brother or your sister what is within; I say to you, do not so, even if your brother or your sister has done the same to you. Eat your food only; do not eat that which is not food; neither seize the table between your jaws, nor use the raiment of the table to wipe your lips. I say again to you, do not touch it, but leave it as it is. And though your stick of carrot does indeed resemble a marker, draw not with it upon the table, even in pretend, for we do not do that, that is why. And though the pieces of broccoli are very like small trees, do not stand them upright to make a forest, because we do not do that, that is why. Sit just as I have told you, and do not lean to one side or the other, nor slide down until you are nearly slid away. Heed me; for if you sit like that, your hair will go into the syrup. And now behold, even as I have said, it has come to pass.
Yes, this is the coup de grace to my family's recent landscaping project. Apparently, it even has lights, so that one can enjoy the scenery deep into the night. The neighbors must be thrilled. I wonder if it is remote controlled...
