Do you see that moving van parked out in front of Exit 51? It’s waiting for me to finish packing up the boxes of as yet, unpublished posts, so they can be moved to their new home.
Back when I started Exit 51, I had no idea that it would end up being about food. It [...]

Did you think that I would not eventually get around to talking about this? The movie trailer has made its way across the Internet and the movie opens soon. So I guess it’s about time for my two cents on the whole Julie/Julia thing.

In honor of the occasion, I have created all whole new set of travel themed banners for Exit 51 that I will be posting to the site over the next few weeks. If you’re reading this via Facebook, click here to [...]
Blog Roll
Posted in Cooking, Mark Bittman, Random, tagged Bittman, Food Blogs, New York Times on 10 July 2009 | 2 Comments »
As if there were a shortage of websites to consume my daytime productivity, I had to stumble across this post on Bitten where Mr. Bittman opened Pandora’s Box.

Will somone please tell me which kitchen god I need to pray to in order to make these beauties my own? For the life of me, I cannot explain why I am obsessed with these mini-cocottes. Lord knows I don’t have anywhere to store them, and there are much larger items on the priority list [...]

Strolling through the produce section last week, I acted impulsively. For reasons I can’t explain, I grabbed a container of kumquats off the shelf and dropped them into my cart. I think I was seduced by their bright orange skins since I’ve never eaten a kumquat and don’t have a single recipe that uses them.
So [...]
A few truths:
A – My urban homestead is not the ideal location for a vegetable garden.
B – I am almost notorious for my ability to kill plants.
C – I’m determined to overcome both A and B.
Wordle

For the life of me, I cannot remember how the world used to burn up billable work time before the Internet. I mean, you can only make so many “cheeky” xerox copies. Now, there’s Facebook and Youtube and Hulu. And don’t forget about Wordle.
What’s Wordle, you ask? See that picture? That’s my very own Exit [...]
