Black & Decker JE1200 Juicer     Added Sep 14, 2007

My review
You cannot beat this juicer for the price. It really works well. For whatever reason my 4 year old told his grandma that he wanted a juicer for his birthday. Guess what - he loves it. It is a great way to take fruit that is starting to be less than appealing, and make it into juice! Great for grapes gone soft, peaches, kiwis, etc... The unit comes apart for easy cleaning and I just dump the parts into the dishwasher.

My review
Outstanding chefography. A truly amazing man who made cooking his life and changed the way we eat in America. If you want to know why there are foodies now, know your history and read about Franey!

My review
Pierre Franey came to America with three items from France: A 10" chef's knife, a vegetable peeler, and a cast iron skillet. You can do almost anything in a cast iron skillet if you treat it right. Over time, it actually will become more non-stick if you avoid washing it too much. The key is to scrub with a steel wool, oil it, and wipe it dry. No soap needed. I have much love for Franey - I learned to cook from his most famous ealry books 60 Minute Gourmet, and More 60 Minute Gourmet.

My review
Essential cookbook, even if you never use recipes. Excellent for reference material. I can't always remember excact ingredients for bread pudding or exact temp for medium rare roast beef. This book provides that essential reference point.

iPod shuffle 1GB Silver - Clamshell with activated security tags
My review
This is my 3rd iPod and I like it the best. I primarily use it when working out. The clip feature is great, but it actually comes off when I run. That's a problem. I think on next 5K I will tape it to my shirt or something...

Great book about Mario White. The original Chef bad boy in England. If you like chef auto biographies, this is a very good read.

My review
These are sweet skis. I was skiing a pair of Beta Carve C:9s, one of the earlier shaped skis. This past season I demo skied on the X-Wings. Had to have them. The ride is so smooth. You can really feel the difference that the wood core makes. I bought them in March and didn't have a lot of time to pound, but they held nicely on steeps and cruisers. They are pretty fat, and they pushed the snow around with ease. I didn't have a chance to get them in much powder, but who does on the East anayway??? I can't wait for ski season to start so I can take these babies out! My only chafe is I see them listed here for under $600. That is a GREAT price for these skis and about $100 less than I paid (even with a $100 coupon). If you are in the market for a new pair of skis , you will love the X-wings!
