Thanks so much Maya- he was such a sweet little boy with so many health issues. We just din't know what else to do. I really appreciate your kind words.

I am so sorry, Randolph is beautiful and I loved hearing about the country visits and how excited you both were to get him. The pictures you shared, and the stories. I have tears as I read this, Carolyn wrote it beautifully Paul. My condolences to you both... I am sure the sounds of a new puppy will once again reverberate through the house and I am sure Stoli was on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge. You had great courage, strength and humanity to care so deeply for that little monkey.

Paul,

Aptly put. Homes behave like investments over the long term, but should be viewed first and foremost as homes and not cold assets when being evaluated. I often find myself reminding people that they cannot live in their 401k. It gets drafty.

I tell those who ask that it is a wonderful market for buyers and not so wonderful for sellers up here in the 914.

GREAT to meet you last night and discuss the construction project.

It is very sad- she was a very good person with such a passion for life....

I just learned of dear Carolyn's passing last night. I expected to see her today at Star Chefs NYC. This is indeed a sad and sudden loss and I hope that her family is well.

Better than the cous cous was the personalized Zweben help. One short phone call to PZ and ten minutes later I had a gameplan for a spectacular birthday dinner. This recipe is so easy and fun to prepare and the meal was out of this world!

Thanks, Paul!

Your pickle recipe is right on time PZ. My garden is going cucumbers gone wild. So are the beans, chard, lettuce, favas, beets, corn, tomatoes, cilantro, parsley, chinese and italian broccoli, basil, and fennel.

Thank you for your review. We are often "in the weeds" this Summer as business is up 40% from last year. We are very happy about making more money, but we're still trying to reconcile the demand. We keep telling ourselves not to look up and that people understand , and will wait, for good, affordable home cooked , prepared to order food. But, still we stress and find it hard to catch up. And, with a kitchen sized for just two, with 20 customers on line - what a challenge it is. Still, we try. And, will continue to for the next twelve weeks - at least.

Paul Zweben — Sat, 04 Jun 2011 08:51:01 -0000

I love your other ideas you have to add to the fries-
The tarragon lemon mayonnaise for a dip sounds delicious-
Thanks for the tip on the seasoning- I don't 100% agree, but that is why there are horse races:)
Have a great weekend!

Cheffem — Sat, 04 Jun 2011 08:26:49 -0000

Adding salt and pepper after the first frying will not improve the fries flavor, however will cause the oil to break down quicker. This in turn will cause your fries to not brown or crisp up properly.
Save all your seasonings until the end.
Other coatings to consider:
Chili pepper (blend)
Curry powder
Granulated Garlic
and of course truffle oil and or salt.
I personally prefer homemade tarragon lemon mayonnaise for a dip

Re: Does your agent know the rental market?

Hungrydomaine — Fri, 18 Mar 2011 12:36:19 -0000

where do you do your biz in Jersey?

Re: Does your agent know the rental market?

Agent Know How — Wed, 16 Mar 2011 22:52:26 -0000

Ok so I don't do rentals. In Jersey there's just too much driving involved. But if your market calls for that service, you are well on your way with servicing that need in a timely manner and to your advantage with all of the prep work you do ahead of time.
