Learning to Cook is like Climbing a Mountain | Wyona Street
https://wyona.wordpress.com/2011/09/26/learning-to-cook-is-like-climbing-a-mountain
Learning to Cook is like Climbing a Mountain. I am not a professional cook but I am living proof that anyone can learn no matter how low from which you start. Got home from work. It was not a big deal deal to me. Upon retirement, I needed to find new tasks. My only firm rule was to only do things I liked to do. I began to do a lot of volunteer work, I worked part-time, I began a vigorous program of exercise, and I learned to be a decent cook. As a youngster, I would occasionally go to a fine restaurant w...

A Cook’s Memories of Time’s Past | Wyona Street
https://wyona.wordpress.com/2011/09/23/a-cooks-memories-of-times-past
A Cook’s Memories of Time’s Past. Originally posted on my older blog on July 19. 2009]. Here are some memories of food habits from a time long gone. Breakfast was standard as well alternating between cold or hot cereal and the once a week soft boiled eggs in a cup which I never ate. Fresh vegetables and fresh fruit were rare. Diet in those days was determined by 2 major factors: availability and ethnicity. My Italian friends had similar experiences. Their food preferences were brought over from Italy...

Ice Scream | Wyona Street
https://wyona.wordpress.com/2011/08/29/ice-scream
Magnum bars are European, originally made in Denmark, but now distributed all over Europe and is licensed all over the world; usually with ‘Magnum’ as part of the brand name, except in Greece where the brand name ‘Magnum’ is owned by Nestle (Magnum ice cream is owned by Unilever, a British/Dutch company). So now we have 2 high quality ice cream bars available in American supermarkets. and they both owe it all to Iowa. You see, Iowa is where the chocolate covered ice cream bar began.

E-BOOK READERS, PART 2 | Wyona Street
https://wyona.wordpress.com/2011/08/02/e-book-readers-part-2
E-BOOK READERS, PART 2. I’ll state two things right upfront. First, I believe that there is no better medium for books then paper. This does not mean that I do think that there not a place for e-books. Secondly, whatever e-book reader you buy now, you will be compelled to replace it within a year. Technology will change quickly. Kindle 3 and Nook Touch. THE KEY IS THE BOOK BUSINESS’S FUTURE. When you select an e-book reader, look for the device that has the future in mind. I’ll know that the in...From yo...

Gelato | Wyona Street
https://wyona.wordpress.com/2011/09/22/gelato
I love ice cream. I am almost addicted to it. But the true holy grail of frozen confections has got to be Gelato. Perhaps it is because Gelato is impossible to find in my town. Perhaps it is because the nearest purveyor of a good facsimile of Gelato is about 30 miles away. And its rarity here has make it even more desirable to me. To be made with fresh ingredients and must never never be totally frozen. Also unlike ice cream, Gelato is never completely frozen. In order to preserve it’s unique f...And if ...

Gyro Scope | Wyona Street
https://wyona.wordpress.com/2011/08/13/gyro-scope
Modern commercial Gyro providers did away with the real meat and substituted a ground fat-laden meat combination. This is what you usually get in today’s restaurants. It is not as tasty as the real thing and the quality varies a lot. Restaurants also often do not use Tzatziki. Sauce or even a good greek yoghurt with cucumber, but often a cheap watery yoghurt or sour cream. Not good at all as it tends to drip everywhere. In the Middle East, the gyro variant is called ‘Shawarma’. From your own site. You ar...
