I am a huge fan of the Lee Brothers. They are the lastest and greatest culinary minds to come out of the mecca of Charleston, S.C. They have a few great cookbooks out right now, my favorite of which is called the Simple, Fresh, Southern. They have a way of embracing the southern culture of food and adding an aristocratic element to it. And this fruit with sour cream and port syrup is a great example. + READ MORE

In an effort to use up the leftover shrimp from last week’s shrimp orzo, I again opened up my Lee Brothers cookbook and went to work on a shrimp pâté. Leftover shrimp don't last very long in the refrigerator, so you really need to think on your feet so that they don't go to waste. + READ MORE

For longer than I care to remember I've been a cycle commuter. For short to medium distances I can't think of a better way to travel. I lived on the inner city fringe for roughly 20 years. For half of that time I didn't own a car. I rode everywhere, for everything. To work, to play, to study, to lecture, to shop, to eat. I rode to first dates. I rode to awards ceremonies. I rode to business appointments. Like any activity undertaken on a constant basis, things will eventually go wrong. I have had my fair share of such 'events.' + READ MORE

They spent on all kinds of other things, but modern and fast transit is one of the best ways to make our cities and suburbs more energy-efficient and less dependent on oil. + READ MORE
