A short while ago, Wardeh at gnowfglins.com talked about her kitchen and and how well used it is. I can relate to this. My kitchen is what I think is called a galley kitchen and is a little on the small side. I do have lots of cabinet space which is nice and a little …
> I love the concept of a Rubber Chicken. Cooking one chicken and turning it into 2, 3 or more meals is not a new idea. Here is a post that shows how to turn that chicken into five meals. I’ve been using the Rubber Chicken (or Planned Overs) concept for quite awhile but not …
