Please allow me to nerd out a little bit here. I live in LA, where celebrities are as ubiquitous as the year-round sunshine. I have cooked for some of these celebs, from D-List to A-List (Brangelina!), but nothing makes my head swivel like the sight of a Top Chef Master like Mark Peel.
Now chefs are notorious for being boisterous creatures who don't know how to use their inside voices. After all, cooking is a craft and art form, and you know those creative types...
But Mark Peel was kind enough to let me have a picture taken with him in the kitchen of his new venture, Tarpit. Tarpit, located right next door to Cube on La Brea, is a retro-fabulous cocktail lounge and restaurant that just opened 4 weeks ago. In this age of "Tapas" and small plates I have come to expect miniscule portions and a disproportionately large bill, but the serving sizes were generous on the bar menu items. For example, for their $9 duck sliders, I expected to receive one slider, but was happily surprised to get double. The Mac n Cheese was earthy and distinctive with mushrooms and sage and arrived at our table in a cute black cauldron; and the steak tartare was clean and classic and nicely textured. They have some kinks to work out, like all new establishments, but I loved the service, the atmosphere, and the menu selection.

I'm in a love/hate relationship with virtual memory because of the way prices are always,and I domean always dropping. I hate buying SD Cards for my R4 / R4i at (seemingly) a crazy bargain price only to see it become 10% cheaper a few months later.

Hello,
I'm just browsing sites for the kids of Haiti.
I'm doing this for a non-profit haiti group that gives their time to
building oppurtunities for the kids in haiti. If anyone wants to give money then this is the place:
[url=http://universallearningcentre.org]Donate to Haiti[/url] or Help Haiti
They give children in Haiti a positive learning environment.
Please check it out, they're a real cause.
It would be awesome if you could help us
