Asymmetrical Information

I'm giving my daughter the Rose Wilder book and EAT THE RICH because of your suggestions. Thanks

I made your "Mom's Pumpkin Pie", my first pie ever, and it was praised by the family. It was almost too simple.

I also bought the Konica Minolta Dimage G600 camera from Amazon after seeing the quality of your photos. The G600 filled my need for a PictBridge compatable camera to mate with my Olympus Printer. It's the easiest to use digital camera I've owned and the images are outstanding.

I enjoy your logical explanations even though understanding the underlying economics is challenging.

I put "How We Got Here" in my Amazon shopping cart on your recommendation, but I did check with my husband before proceeding, since he has more books than any other individual I know. Sure enough, it's already in our house. He agrees with your assessment by the way (except he doesn't have a crush on David Frum).

I made the cranberry sauce (cranberries, OJ, and sugar) for T-day, and it was so easy and so delicious!

I tried your garlic mashed potato recipe for Thanksgiving. Roasting the garlic beforehand, as you suggested, made the best I'd ever made. I'm going to try using the roasted garlic just spread on french bread too. Can you tell I like garlic?

My wife made the Butternut Squash, except she added cranberries. It was very good. We also tried the garlic mashed potatoes. I think I still smell like garlic. Its a good thing I like garlic.

Well I almost bought the Thomas Sowell book on Economics but after flipping through it I noticed a decided lack of tables and charts and graphs and equations and numbers, just a bunch of words. If that is any way to teach Econ it is news to me (and my professors).

I made the raw cranberry and orange dressing and the garlic mashed potatoes , kept the mashed potatoes in the crock pot under a layer of half n half until dinner time, worked great. My wife cooked the free range turkey in the weber, I couldn't convince her to brine.
btw my favorite kitchen tool is/are the victorinox serrated peeler knives from Smokey Mountain Knife Works. either the 3 1/2 inch or 4 inch blade. They are great and both cost less than $5.00. Bon blogatique.

I made your cranberry sauce - it was fantastic! I couldn't believe how easy it was to make. It was big hit around the Thanksgiving table, and I'm sure it will become a family standard. Alas, I did not have a lovely dish gathering dust in the back corners of my cabinets to serve it in, but it still looked very nice in my plain serving bowl.

Used your variant of the pumpkin pie; have stocked up on raw materials so more pies can be made once we're done digesting Thanksgiving dinner.

Also ordered Parliament; added to cart via your link, but didn't order until later. Hope you got spiffed by the purchase.

I just received the "Taylor Classic Remote Digital Cooking Thermometer" from Amazon.com. And yes, I do appreciate your advice. This new cooking item may be put to use sometime next week. Please keep the suggestions coming.

Some of the reciepes have been interesting, my family had a brined Turkey, it was very good, and will likely try your brine in the future. As to the books, I havent noticed many recommended, but Im pretty sure we have different tastes, especially in fiction. The more high brow stuff I like is H Miller, W Burroughs, K Kesey, etc(to me, if its hardcover or trade paperback, its high brow). The pulp stuff I like is Preston and Child collaberations, I Welsh(my fave and source of screenname), Thom Jones(best short fiction ever imo), stuff like that.

I made your cranberry sauce--it was easy and deliciou. I will certainly make it again--I bought the cranberries on sale after Thanksgiving and froze them for that purpose.

Read Hazlitt about a year ago after finding it in your book list. Pretty good -- and about my speed for such things. Of course, it was just a bunch of words...

Made your macaroni and cheese for my two year old. Now she's three and still can't get enough. And the adults like it, too, unlike the store brand kind.

I wrote down your cranberry sauce recipe... didn't have time to make it for TG but I will for Christmas! Can't wait.
