In the chaotic kitchen of a recipe developer, you get a food blog called FoodMayhem.
I'm Jessica, an Asian-American, born and raised in NYC, and that's Lon, my Jewish, white husband. While professionally trained as a French culinary- and pastry chef, many of FoodMayhem recipes are my attempt to preserve and share authentic Chinese and Taiwanese recipes learned from my mom. We don't eat Chinese food every day, so you'll get a little bit of anything we find delicious enough to share: from our Eastern European side; recipes and techniques learned from my restaurant days; restaurant reviews, food travel tips; and a few other juicy bits along the way. Welcome to FoodMayhem!
Since readers seemed to appreciate my saving tip last week, I thought I’d mention another one. Do you get Bed Bath & Beyond coupons in the mail? If you want to, you can sign-up here. They usually send 20% off coupons which makes a really nice savings on kitchen appliances. They have expiration dates but they actually NEVER EXPIRE!! Lon’s mom told us about this a while ago and I’ve used two year old coupons. No problem. So by yourself that ice cream maker you wanted!
Great tip!! I just got myself a digital meat thermometer with a coupon this weekend! Woot! If I find another one, I’m gonna get their deluxe bbq set in a sleek carrying case =)
In our usual, anal, fact-checking style. We actually called BB&B;, who confirmed by telephone that they do include expiration dates on the coupons (as Jessica mentioned), but that their policy is to never enforce those expiration dates. Sweet.
PLUS you can buy stuff w/o the 20% coupon, and then go back later with a coupon and your receipt and do a price adjustment.
Oh that rocks!
