Off to Market: Candy Bowl
On Halloween night, no house should be without a special candy bowl. Whether it's a jack-o'-lantern bowl or a simple one you use all year long, a candy bowl is necessary to appease trick-or-treaters. To ensure that we are ready to feed the goblins and ghosts, let's head off to market in search of candy bowls.
Off to Market Recap: Trifle Dish
While trifles are a perfect dinner party dessert, I don't serve them because I have no trifle dish. To remedy this, I asked you to help me find a fabulous trifle dish. You looked for large, clear vessels that can hold the delicious dessert, layered salads, or fun centerpieces.
Cylindrical Appetizer Holder: Love It or Hate It?
On Thursday night I went to a swanky little launch party at the sleek Zephyr Showroom. The highlight of the evening — hosted by San Francisco's Junior League — wasn't the drinks or the decor, but the cylindrical appetizer holder! Heads turned as the caterers walked by holding the long skinny pole with skewered salmon sticking out of it.

Off to Market: Casserole Dish
Last week I decided to make lasagna. My sausage tomato sauce was done, the cheese was grated, and the pasta ready, when I realized I don't own a large casserole dish! I ended up having to make the lasagna in two pie dishes.
Off to Market: Trifle Dish
While trifles are a perfect dinner party dessert — they are best when made in advance and have a pretty presentation — I shy away from serving them because I don't have a proper trifle dish. Can you help me find a fabulous trifle dish? Look for large, clear vessels that can hold the delicious dessert, layered salads, or fun centerpieces.
Come Party With Me: Potluck Thanksgiving — The Look
When hosting any Thanksgiving dinner, be it a potluck or one where you do the majority of the cooking, it's a good idea to set the table a couple of days in advance.
Start with a seasonal tablecloth, then add the good china, polished flatware, and wine glasses. Serve the cocktails in tumblers and the turkey on a large platter.
Thanksgiving Tip: Use Food as Serveware
When planning a dinner as momentous as Thanksgiving, there are lots of elements to consider on top of cooking, like selecting the right menu (and bird!), detailing an oven plan, and considering your budget. But one thing I firmly believe you shouldn't have to stress about is doing the dishes.
Spare yourself — and the environment!
Fast & Easy Dinner: Spicy Thai Curried Lentils
If you don't cook with lentils on a regular basis, you should start experimenting with them. The small legumes cook quickly, are filling, and can be served with everything from chorizo to arugula. Not to mention they're supposed to help you lose weight!
Sunday Dinner: Sirloin Stew With Dill Noodles
Earlier this month, Party and I were enticed by one reader's rendition of beef stroganoff. If you, too, found yourself salivating over her creation, here's another dish that you need to bookmark! Unlike the classic course, which has sour cream and mushrooms, the ground beef in this recipe becomes a stew with the help of a roux, beef broth, and Worcestershire.
In Season: Fennel
It's surprising that a hardy green such as fennel is so unknown to so many home cooks, especially considering the vegetable's adaptability: Its bulb, stalks, and fronds are all completely edible, either raw or cooked, and it possesses a pleasing, mild anise flavor. Although it's a perennial, fennel can be found at a reasonable price during Autumn months. Fennel newbies can sniff it at the market for a hint of the flavor to come.
