Spring weddings. That used to be the norm. Now with all kinds of places and times and seasons we can travel to, seems like you can have a wedding anytime - even New Year’’s Eve!
I used to wonder what to get these newlyweds for their gifts. Until I discovered eStores! It’’s pretty easy now to just go online and look for great gifts.
My personal favorite is to give something that gets used everyday - so that the happy couple will remember our family for years to come. Which is why I recommend anything for the kitchen.
Pots, pans, grills - you name it, with these items you can”t go wrong. If you really want to impress the young couple - go for a entire cookware set.
You can find great prices on Rachael Ray Cookware, Paula Dean Cookware and other specialty cookware. Stainless steel cookware and kitchen pans with copper bottoms or cast iron await you as well.
I did a keyword search for “kitchen pans” and found a couple of great websites. One of the kitchen pan sites was all about the history of pans, but was no longer selling articles. The next 2 or 3 sites all had pans, and one even had kitchen timers, oven mitts, pyrex goodies and all kinds of goodies that will add happiness to any couples cooking endeavors.
Know someone who’’s getting married in another state and you can”t attend their wedding? eStores are perfect for that. Avoid the long lines at the post office and have it shipped right to their home. I thought that was kinda cool.
So, whether it be a wedding, new home party, “throw out the old pans and get some new ones” theme, eStores are a great way to go. I was also happy to find that they”ll compete for prices (one site offers a “low price promise”) and also offer lifetime warranties on certain products from the manufacturers.
One of the other things I noticed was the “SSL” certificate, which means the eStore has to become verified financially, and will protect your information from being seen while you are online and ordering. Any eStore you buy from NEEDS to have this before you purchase any items.
How do you know? When you go into the “checkout” part of the eStore, the “http” turns into “https” which means it is secure. You should also see an icon on the front page of the website you are visiting listing the name of the SSL (webguard, for example).
Making your online purchase for cookware sets, be it kitchen pans, celebrity name cookware or just a few pots and pans should be a breeze. There are a lot of great websites out there, and for the most part the top 5 or 6 eStores on page one got there because they have good products and good user feedback.
Give them a try, shop and save. If they offer an 800 number, call them and see if they will beat their competitor’’s price. Most of them will if you quote them the price PLUS the price of shipping (some eStores may fool you on the price, and make up for it with the shipping).
You”ll make someone’’s wedding day an event they will always remember with every meal they cook. What a great way to be remembered!

My mother makes really good fudge. Whenever I used to watch her making fudge in our kitchen, she then would pass on the bowl to me after she finished making the fudge so I could lick it clean. I loved this. I”ve tried lots of fudge recipes in my lifetime but I am biased. My mom’’s fudge is still the very best fudge for me. It’’s both good and made by my mother so I guess that equals to a really great fudge recipe.
Mom used to prepare for us 3 different kinds of fudge for me and my siblings and we all loved them. Here they are.
Mom’’s Choco Fudge
1 2/3 c light cream
4.5 c sugar
2 tsps vanilla
2 (12 ounce) packages semisweet choco chips
1/2 c butter (NOT margarine), sliced into pieces
1 (11 ounce) package milk choco chips
2 c chopped walnuts, if desired
Grease a 9×13″ pan with butter and set aside. Inside a large, heavy saucepan, combine cream, and sugar. Bring to a boil on medium heat, stir it CONSTANTLY!! When it comes to a boil, lower the heat to medium low and continue to cook and stir as mixture boils. Boil for 5 mins.
Then remove pan from the heat and immediately mix in butter and all of your chocolate. Stir constantly until chocolate melts into the cream mixture and fudge becomes satiny. Fold in vanilla & nuts, if using. Immediately spoon and spread into the prepared pan. Let stand at room temperature until cool. Cut into squares. Make about 4 pounds of fudge.
Choco-Mint Fudge
1 c white confectioners” coating
2 c semisweet chocolate chips
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, divided
2 tsps vanilla extract
1 tbsp peppermint extract
1 drop green food coloring (optional)
Line an 8 or 9 inch square pan with waxed paper. In heavy saucepan on low heat, melt chocolate chips with 1 c sweetened condensed milk & vanilla. Spread half of mixture in your prepared pan; chill 10 minutes, or ”til set. Reserve remaining chocolate mixture at room temperature.
Into another heavy saucepan on low heat, melt white confectioners” coating with remaining sweetened condensed milk (mixture will be thick.) Mix in peppermint extract and food coloring. Spread this mixture onto chilled chocolate layer; chill 10 minutes, or just until firm.
Spread reserved chocolate mixture over mint layer; chill 2 hours, or until firm.
Rocky Road Fudge
3 c chocolate chips (semi-sweet)
1 14-oz can condensed milk
1/4 c (4 tbsp) butter
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/4 c toasted nuts, coarsely chopped
1.5 c mini marshmallows
Prepare an 8×8 or 9×9 pan by lining it using aluminum foil and spraying the foil with nonstick cooking spray. Inside a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips, condensed milk, and butter. Microwave it in one-minute increments until melted, about 2-3 minutes.
Stir to ensure all the chocolate is melted, then add in vanilla & salt. Stir until the candy turns smooth and well-mixed. Add 1 c of marshmallows and 1 c of nuts and stir until well-combined.
Pour fudge into the prepared pan and smooth it into a very even layer. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 c marshmallows and 1/4 cup nuts on top of your fudge and press gently so that they”re embedded in the surface. Place the fudge inside refrigerator to set for at least 2 hours. Once set, slice into 1-inch squares and serve at room temperature. Store excess fudge inside an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Do you know that 1/3 of all the food you eat is pollinated by bees? The decimation of bee colonies is a threat to food production in Hawaii.
In Hawaii we do not have the disappearance of bees (Colony Collapse Disorder or CCD), but we now have the devastating and aptly named varroa destructor, commonly known as the varroa mite.
The varroa mite is a parasite that attacks honey bee adults, larvae, and pupae. The varroa mite has been know to destroy up to 90% of wild hives and beekeepers can easily lose all or a majority of their managed hives.
Until recently, Hawaii and Australia were the only remaining varroa free places in the world. The varroa mite was found on Oahu in 2007, unfortunately this did not result in quick and aggressive action by the private or government sector. As a result, the mite has now been found in hives on the Big Island.
The beekeeping industry in Hawaii is a $4 million per year industry, with the majority of that being on the Big Island. Hawaii’’s beekeepers produce both honey and queen bees. But Hawaii’’s beekeeping industry affects a much larger industry.
The Kona Coast of Hawaii produces approx. 400,000 varroa free queens per year, or 20% of the nation’’s needs. Each queen bee heads up a colony of about 45,000 pollinating foragers that fly and pollinate about 8,000 acres around its hive.
Hawaii’’s queen producers supply many of the nation’’s largest beekeepers with mite-free queens whose colonies pollinate the food crops in North America.
Not Just a Honey Problem, It is a Food Problem
The varroa mite is not just a beekeeper’’s problem, it is a food production problem that will affect commercial farms as well as the backyard gardener. The State Department of Agriculture estimates that Hawaii’’s agricultural industry will lose $42 - $62 million from the loss of feral bees.
When wild honey bees no longer pollinate crops, farmers will have to hire managed bee colonies to sustain production, if managed hives are available. Since there is a ban on importation of bees to Hawaii, if the bees die out replenishing managed hives may present an unanticipated problem.
Pollinated-dependent crops such as tomatoes, cucumbers and melons will experience losses in both quality and quantity. Bees also assist in pollinating coffee, macadamia nuts, citrus, avocado, and guava.
The loss of wild hives will likely mean lower production and quality in farms and private gardens and fruit trees.

Managing a restaurant is one of the most multi-faceted undertakings in the realm of work. One must track costs and expenses, market and advertise the restaurant, hire and develop staff, manage schedules…the list goes on and on. With so much on one’’s plate (so to speak), it can become easy to get caught up in the minutiae and lose track of the big picture. It’’s a good idea to periodically take a step back, evaluate what you”re doing, and seek out ways to improve. Following are some secrets for effective restaurant management that will help you gain perspective and improve.
Secret #1: The Bottom Line
The ultimate goal for an effective restaurant manager is to increase sustainable profits. One of the best ways to achieve this goal is to systematically reduce costs. The two cost areas that provide the greatest cost savings potential are food costs and labor costs. Each is addressed below.
Food Costs
The first step in reducing food costs is by gaining and keeping tight control of the food itself. This can be a time-consuming process, but it will invariably lead to savings and efficiency. You must regularly watch to see how much food is being used, how much is being wasted, and how much is simply “disappearing.” Take inventory on a regular basis, as often as possible. Use white boards or “par sheets” to estimate and plan how much of each key item to prepare for the day. This will help prevent ordering in excess of what you need. Also, institute an airtight security system for your storerooms and walk-ins.
Labor Costs
The best way to control labor costs is to recognize the traffic patterns of your restaurant. When is it busiest? When is it generally slow? An efficient restaurant will have only as many people working as are required to operate the restaurant while maintaining top customer service standards. Having staff members standing around when there are no customers to serve eats up profits quickly. Knowing the traffic patterns of your establishment helps you schedule accordingly and minimize waste.
Secret #2: It’’s All About Customer Service
The most successful restaurant managers are ones that realize customer service is why they are in business. Without customers, there is no restaurant. You must communicate the importance of this aspect of the business to all of your staff. It is important, however, that you are a champion for customer service by consistently providing examples. Interact with customers as often as possible and encourage your staff to discreetly witness your interactions. Modeling hospitable behavior is a great way to lead by example. Also, keep an eye on servers and bussers and provide constructive criticism, but only in private. Recognize instances of outstanding customer service and reward the employees that display it.
Secret #3: Quality Staff
Loyal and efficient staff can make or break a restaurant. It is important to maintain a positive work environment and motivate employees. Address any issues or problems immediately in a constructive manner. Also, it is very important to have incentive programs in place to keep the best people working for you.

Chocolate fudges are 1 of my very favorite sweet treats. But be careful, fudges are very indulgent and rich desserts so I always make it a point to limit my intake of these delectable treats. I usually just eat them during Christmas & other holidays.
For many years, I”ve tried to look for the best fudge recipe. The ideal recipe for fudge should be:
1) Easy - A Fudge recipe should be easy to prepare. They shouldn”t be giving you too much of a hard time inside your very own kitchen.
2) Great Tasting - Just because your relatives or friends swear by it, that it makes it good. Try out this really great recipe then compare notes. Practice. Until you get it right. Don”t stick to 1 recipe, try lots of them. Good fudge shouldn”t have that grainy consistency.
3) Ingredients are easily available - A great fudge recipe shouldn”t be too much trouble. All the ingredients that you need should be easily found in local grocery stores.
Ingredients
3 c sugar
3/4 c margarine/butter (or 1-1/2 sticks)
1 small can (5 oz) evaporated milk (2/3 cup)
1-1/2 pkg. (12 squares) BAKER’’s semi-sweet baking chocolate, chopped
1 jar (7 oz) JET PUFFED marshmallow creme
1 c chopped walnuts
1 tsp vanilla
Heat sugar, butter & evaporated milk to full rolling. Boil in 3 quart heavy saucepan on medium heat, constantly stirring it. Boil on medium heat until your candy thermometer reaches 234 degrees F, stirring often to prevent scorching, about 4 minutes. Take away from the heat.
Add chocolate and marshmallow creme until its all melted; add vanilla & walnuts. Spread immediately in foil-lined 9 inch square pan. Cool at room temp. at least 4 hours; cut into 1 inch squares. Store in an airtight container. Makes 3 lbs. or 40 2 square servings
Be sure to advise all chocoholics to stay away from the pan until at least 4 hours have passed. And don”t let any of them get cute by tossing it into the fridge to shorten the time! Fudge is honestly best if allowed to sit and “set” at room temp.
I”m one of those chocoholics that tried the fridge thing one time,by getting a bit too anxious at the very end, it ruined all the effort and time I”d put into the fudge. I learned my lesson now. I just always have something else chocolatlicous to nibble on while waiting!
Do enjoy making the fudge. If at first try, you get a grainy fudge, you should do this great fudge recipe over again and this time be extra careful about not leaving it for long unattended. Always stir it often to get that great consistency

When one owns a restaurant in Canada, they have to follow strict health regulations. In Canada, each province is responsible for implementing health codes and regulations for restaurants. The purpose of these health regulations is to ensure cleanliness and prevent illness, especially preventing diseases and illnesses that can be dangerous to one’’s health.
Across Canada, restaurant and food service inspection is performed by provincial governments, municipalities, or regional health authorities. As well, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency is involved with protecting people from unsanitary food and restaurant practices.
Although Canadian provinces implement their own health codes and practices, the following are common general health safety requirements for running a clean and healthy restaurant:
There should be a minimal risk of food contamination.
Restaurant operations are conducted in a sanitary way. Restaurant supplies and surfaces are non-toxic and cleaned and sanitized properly.
The restaurant will practice appropriate cleaning practices, including washrooms.
Staff must practice proper sanitation methods. There should be suitably located hand-washing facilities
Restaurant should not be an environment that breeds insects, rodents and other pests.
Dishware and other cookware are cleaned properly using the appropriate dish detergent and water pressure, temperature, and volume.
There should be an appropriate drainage and waste disposal systems.
Adequate sanitary storage facilities should be available for foods, supplies, cleaning supplies and chemicals…etc.
There must be appropriate refrigeration.
After handling raw meat, poultry and seafood, one must wash their hands.
There should be proper cleaning and disinfection of cutting boards and cutting/slicing machines.
Food should be free of mold, spoilage, and bacteria.
Staff should be working in a non-toxic environment.
Food storage areas should be clean, neat, and dry.
There should be separate washrooms for staff and customers unless an inspector gives approval.
Garbage cans should be emptied regularly.
A restaurant should have the appropriate fire safety devices such as smoke detectors and fire extinguishers.
According to CRFA’’s Food Safety Code of Practice, “over 8.5 million Canadians develop food borne illness each year, of which 39,000 end up in the hospital and as many as 600 die.” It is vital and the law in Canada that a restaurant meet and exceed the health codes and regulations. It is important to contact your local government to find out the specific regulations. One will need to pass a health inspection before receiving a license to open and run a restaurant.
As well as being the law, the cleanliness of a restaurant is a key component of making a restaurant a success. A poorly kept restaurant can result in a bad reputation and even food poisoning. As well, a health inspector can shut a restaurant down for not following the mandated health codes and regulations. Fortunately, it is easy to establish a health plan that all staff can follow in order to avoid any problems. All restaurant managers and their staff should be familiar with the contents of their province’’s health regulations and codes.

This excellent content resource will I hope be of great help to you, adjust with the most comprehensive topics and structures.
You are enjoying a meal. Then a nearby table erupts. Two customers appear to be arguing. Then there is shoving. One man falls to the floor. He jumps with a knife that he thrusts into the other’’s chest. But wait, things may not be what they seem, at least not according to the police detective who rushes onto the scene. The dead man also has a gunshot wound. Who shot off a gun? The murder mystery dinner is now in full swing.
Murder mystery theatre has been in action for years. More cosy locations often host these shows, along with a meal. People love to eat and to try to solve a mystery. Once the crime has been committed they love to put their brains to use. These mysteries can take on many different forms. Sometimes the audience merely watches and talks to actors, but doesn”t solve the case. A second form is one in which guests try to solve the case. There can be a lot of twists and turns along the way including some participants given information others do not have.
There are mystery parties and even mystery weekends. They”ve even been explored in popular medium. Movies and television have explored the concept. A group gathered at a spooky house die one by one in horrible ways. One comedic version is Murder by Death. In some shows a pretend mystery dinner turns into a real crime. In an episode of the detective show Monk the lead character has been banned from a murder mystery weekend bed and breakfast because he solved the murder in three minutes, thus ruining the weekend and loosing the establishment a lot of money.
Sometimes these mysteries happen at spooky locations. Some murder mystery theatre groups say that real murders have happened in their facility. True or not, such stories add to the atmosphere. People may not believe it, but they play along for the duration.
A murder mystery dinner can be fun. They are not just for adults. Kids love a challenge and a show. Consider it for your next family outing.
I hope this article provided you with the knowledge and understanding you were looking for.
All the biggest technological inventions created by man - the airplane, the automobile, the computer - says little about his intelligence, but speaks volumes about his laziness. ~Mark Kennedy
