Potpourri

This is truly a mixed bag, and the section which will probably be changed and updated most frequently. You'll find everything from soup to nuts here - places we've visited often enough to certify them as habit-forming! Happy browsing!

"Food, Food, Glorious Food!"

Speaking of "soup to nuts" - there are some great cooking resources available on the web. A couple personal favorites include:

Recipes from the National Pork Producers Council - After living so many years in Iowa, it would seem unpatriotic if we didn't have "the other white meat" for dinner at least once a week. Here you'll find great recipes, as well as tips on choosing the best cuts, and preparation hints.
Cyber Kitchen - A great place to visit, this is the website of The Food Channel, available on some cable networks. If it isn't available in your area, check out their website... recipes, restaurant guides, shopping and much more. NOT a good place to visit if you're dieting! (There are some great recipes here for canines, too, courtesy of the nationally famous Three Dog Bakery.)
The Kraft Interactive Kitchen - Lots of quick recipes and meal-planning tips here. Also entertaining helps and much more. After a busy day, when you're lacking inspiration, this is a good place to prowl for ideas. There's also a feature allowing you to establish your own personal recipe file on-line.
The Campbell Kitchen - Another source for quick meals. This one lets you browse and select recipes based on what ingredients you have on hand at any given time. Also an online store if you're into Campbell's collectibles.
Reiman Publications - These folks publish some fine magazines (Country, Country Woman & Taste of Home, among others) that feature home cooking and which are free of advertising. At their website, you'll find selected recipes from all these publications, which are changed frequently, or you can subscribe or purchase their wonderful cookbooks for your personal collection.
Buffalo Wings from the Anchor Bar - If you've never tasted the "real thing", visit the homepage of the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, NY where "Buffalo Wings" were born! You can order the original Wing Sauce in quantities small or large, find some other unique uses for the sauce, and discover some amazing "Buffalo Wing Trivia" - Note! the sauce is not for the faint of heart, but after you have authentic Buffalo Wings, no others will EVER measure up!

"Greetings!"

Electronic Greetings are a handy way to brighten someone's day and let them know you're thinking of them, whatever the occasion (or when there's no "occasion" at all). Most of the time, the service is free. Here are a few sites worth exploring.

Golden Retriever E-Mail Postcards - I just had to include this link here, as well as in the dogs' favorite links! Original postcards featuring Golden Retrievers in many moods.
Blue Mountain Arts - Many of the cards feature both sound and animation. Cards for most occasions, in a variety of styles.
ArkWorld Electronic Greetings - Photographic cards on a variety of themes, from typical holidays & occasions to blank cards featuring everything from wildlife to landscapes and Asian scenes. Some really beautiful photography.
Toongrams - This has some of the most humorous and downright wacky cards around. If you appreciate the Gary Larson school of humor, you'll find just the thing here. Neatly categorized and worth a browse just for the giggles. You can also send "Virtual Gifts" or "Mail-a-Meal" from this site.
Internet Card Central - This is a very complete index of other e-card providers. It's kept fairly well up-to-date, and you can find all sorts of links to special interest e-card providers here, as well as to more general collections.
