Salutations
in the late afternoon on Sunday, the 27th of July 2003 by Chad
I have it on good authority (the wife) that Wednesday, July 30th, is Alton Brown’s birthday. Sure its early, but I’ll be gone, and I’m not allowed to bring a laptop with me.
But Happy Birthday, oh King of the Kitchen. You taught me to cook. And while I’m still not great, I learned more from you in a half hour episode on how to fry eggs than 6 months working at the truck stop. We love the ribs, the mac&cheese, and everything else.
Take a look at the Good Eat’s Fan Page website for recipes, how-to’s, and everything else for the only great cooking instructor on TV. Do you want to learn how cooking works, not just how to throw ingredients in a pot? Then please read
I’m Just Here for the Food: Food + Heat = Cooking by Alton. This will give you the science behind cooking. Great for pirates, since he covers cooking over open flames. But with this you will understand why you cook they way you do. This is light on recipes, only giving a few examples for each method of cooking. You’re going to read this and understand why you let a steak sit for a while after cooking. Or just what boiling really does. Its worth it, take a look and see for yourselves.

Hi. I havn’t been to your page before, but I was searching for a song over Google and you had mentioned it in one of your posts… it is siroi yami no naka download by shakkazombie. Do you think you can send me it? I’m having hard time finding the song. My AIM screenname is GiZMOSOLiD and if you don’t have AIM, try to email me, so I can find another client. Thanks!
