Each dish, as amazing as it can possibly be
Times Staff WriterIt's the old parlor game: "If you could eat dinner with anyone you wanted, whom would it be?" That may be fun for some, but for those who love to cook, wouldn't a more kitchen-centric twist be even better? Wouldn't you rather fantasize about whom you...Tags: Ginger, Salads, Appetizers, Holidays, Butter

The dazzling crunch
Special to The TimesI used to buy pistachios just for parties, as a little luxury. For cooking, they seemed too pricey and too tempting — you have to buy twice what you need for a recipe when you know you'll be shelling one for the cook and one for the bowl. But a...Tags: Truffle Oil, Ice Cream, Cherries, Baking Powder, Salads

At play on Oregon's coast
Times Staff WriterLess than a century ago, a mansion rose above these chiseled cliffs like some San Simeon of the Oregon coast: 10 bedrooms and baths, not counting servants' quarters. Living room with arguably the best view in the state. And a 52-foot Roman bath that could...Tags: Trips and Vacations, Landforms, Salads, Sports, Water Pollution

A brush with the bold
Times Staff WriterPack it up, beige and white. You're no longer safe. Color has blasted its way back. Paint makers are pouring Pink Minx, Mystical Grape and Relish Green into gallon cans. Shocking colors are being slathered on walls by TV-show decorators who see it as a...Tags: Television, Jerry Seinfeld, Tom Hanks, New York University, Entertainment

Truly Gifted
Los Angeles Times Staff WriterSure, a blue box from Tiffany takes your breath away. And a convertible parked in the driveway with a bow on it is, well, hard to top. But sometimes a holiday gift with a handmade quality can mean just as much--or at least convince your friends that,...Tags: Ginger, Cherries, IKEA, Sage, Holidays

Congeniality by the bottle
Times Staff WriterIt's the eternal question: What to drink with Thanksgiving dinner? Every year, the pundits of wine-and-turkey-matching put forth their picks: Zinfandel, they suggest perkily; after all, it's a native American grape. Or Riesling: A safe bet, since it's...Tags: Turkey (animal), Thanksgiving, Lifestyle and Leisure, Salads, Breads

The great pretender
Special to The TimesSOMEWHERE years ago I read that the best veal in Italy is really turkey, and it somehow always made sense to me. The flavor and texture are not unalike; the only significant difference is that turkey does not need to be beaten into tenderness. But I...Tags: Turkey (animal), Peanuts, Health, Shallots, Sage

Rejoice, with a little restraint
Times Staff WriterMary Poppen vows every year to rein in her holiday décor. But as the days creep closer to Christmas, she once again tears open boxes of bubble-wrapped treasures: miniature re-creations of all 21 California missions and a glass mosaic tree she made from...Tags: Academy Awards, Lifestyle and Leisure, Holidays, Religious Festivals, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

The cranberry factor
Times Staff WriterThe sign in the produce section was a shocker. How could it be? "Sorry. Out of cranberries." I leaned on my cart, incredulous, caught unaware by the cranberry shortage. It was the day before Thanksgiving. I don't remember the year — sometime in the...Tags: Sour Cream, Lemons, Pies and Tarts, Baking Powder, Salt

Procrastinators, rejoice
Special to The TimesOne of the worst decisions I've ever made was booking a flight home from India for Thanksgiving Day last year.
