If I had to pinpoint the foods I make the best it would be the long braises that the French make so well such as cassoulet, coq au vin, beef bourgignonne, blanquette de veau and my favorite choucroute. Fall and winter is my favorite time to cook and eat!!

I have one, but only holds enough for about 2 people. To get your lips smacking for my cassoulet, when I worked at one of the top French restaurants in LA the Times food critic, Ruth Reichel, who is now the editor for Gourmet, used to come in and order two. One to eat there and the other to take home. But I'm open to suggestions...I can pretty much make anything.

I really wish we all lived closer together. I'd have you all over and I would cook a wonderful meal. Left, right, liberal, conservative. A great gourmet meal, excellent wine would help bring us all together. Everyone put down their favorite dish and we can vote on it. Mine...due to the chilly weather that is upon us would be cassoulet with bottle of Burgundy. For dessert, my famous tart tatin. MMMMMMMMM food!!

Since when did we hand out teaching credentials to people that cannot spell? Listen folks, this, by far, will do more harm to this country than four more years of Bush.

Oh I'm sure they ALL do it. Like those 80,000 people who turned out to see Kerry and Springsteen today...I'm sure it was really only 79,599 and the rest were Kerry staffers and their families, not REAL voters...
No, it was probably more like 79,950 there to see Springsteen there rest there to see Kerry.

I'll say zero Alex. So we wait until he does. How many Americans did Hitler kill prior to our entering WWII?

Just did that, what a load of crap. I was as if it were written by the local senior running for class president. Plans, plans, plans. No real plan on how to pay for it. Oh yeah, by increasing taxes on the rich. Well I've got news for him, the rich are best equiped to offset those increases through hiring good CPAs and planners to offset those increases through deductions, deferrals and investing in plans where the income in not taxed at all. Why do you think Theresa paid only 12.5% in taxes. Good luck Johnny boy.

Yeah, that last part would be nice but if it was going to happen, it should have happened a couple decades ago (at least). Buffalo is full of people who will vote Democrat 100% of the time without ever wondering why the city (and region) is in a downward spiral. Maybe we're just a few more unions and a few more tax increases away from that economic boom......
Buffalo's number one export is people. And that's because there's no reason why anyone on the outside would ever want to invest in the region given all the other places they could invest their money.
My mother almost cried when I told her I was a Republican. Then I asked her how she felt on some of the basic conservative values. When I got her answers I said, "Mom, guess what, you're a Repbulican too."

That is so true. We were in France in the spring of 2001. Spent some time with a guy who we were importing some things from. Took us out to lunch and in typical French fashion we proceeded to down three bottles of wine......at LUNCH! Well needless to say tongues loosened up. Yes BiB, they didn't like us before 9/11, they liked us for about 24 minutes after 9/11 and went back to not liking us thereafter. Has NOTHING to do with who is President. They don't understand us, and don't care to. This Iraq war just gives them a tangible reason not to like us.

What I'm worried about happening is that if this election is close, and by all accounts it will be VERY close the losing side will probably be screaming fraud. 2000 set a very bad precedent for this and future elections. I can't wait.

Ummm, yeah, I can make those. And actually I could go for one myself. Haven't had one of those in about a hundred years.
