Tomato Swirl Cornbread
Could be winter's solution to the corn and tomato problem. When you can't get the sweet, fresh stuff, use the sweet preserved stuff. Great versions of cornmeal and canned tomatoes.
Wide-eyed in Waimea
Kauai's Waimea Canyon is one of the reasons you want to be a good walker. It's worth getting in shape for. There's only one Way in and out of here. And it's on your feet. It's a part of that spectacular world that's for hikers only. Join the club.

The Walk That Ate Quebec City
If it's not cold enough where you live, give Quebec City a try. Right now or next month during Winter Carnival. 4 hours and 10 miles to burn more than 1,000 calories. More than you'll consume in a half-day tour of the monuments, bistros and bakeries.
Cauliflower & Olive Pizza
This classic flavor combination on a pizza crust is a perfect example of Better being Cheaper. Not just a great $2 pizza. A great pizza, period.
Hoppin’ Gianni. New Year’s Rice & Beans
In South Carolina, USA, they eat a lot of Hoppin' John this week. Rice and black-eyed peas. Brings good luck for the New Year. In this version, American Southern cooking meets Italian cuisine. I feel lucky already.
Last call. Warm, soft chocolate cake.
The last course of the last meal of the year. Out with a bang. A warm, soft semi-sweet one. Spectacular in your mouth, with or without Champagne.
Walk The Walk
I've always thought walking is its own reward. But if you need some spectacular ends to justify the means, Press Play. There's only one Way to get here.
Free candy. Candied orange peel slices.
Waste not, want not. Save those orange peels and make this great sweet snack. Sweet and tart at the same time. Hey, serve it at midnight with Champagne. Very sophisticated. And free.
Smoky, crisp chickpea snacks
Garbanzos fritos. The best bar snack in town. They're addictive. They're cheap and easy. Refried chickpeas lightly coated with pimentón. $2 for a superior snack laced with protein, iron and Vitamins B and C. Enough for four snackers.
