We visited Kilmainham Gaol yesterday morning, the most notorious prison in Ireland. It was here that the English confined the leaders of the Irish revolutions (six between 1798 and 1919) and executed many of them. It was an unspeakably cruel place. Our guide gave some of the young members of the group signs reminding us that even children were imprisoned for the crime of being poor. Vagrancy, in this context, meant to be homeless ... On Peter Kelleher's advice, we drove down the coast to the

In baking there's no margin for error. Even the most perfectionist of restaurant chefs — say, the red-faced blowhard ranting and raving for the reality-TV cameras at some poor line cook who confused the balsamic vinegar for the olive oil — knows that, at the last minute, a dash of sal ...

Yesterday was interesting. Alcatraz Island was worth the trip. We learned that its history included more that the notorious prison, It began as an army base and artillery battery protecting the entrance to the bay during the Civil War. After we returned, the sun peeked out here and there as we had lunch in a waterside restaurant in Sausilito. The highlight of the day, though, was a visit to Muir Woods, the preserve of towering redwood trees ... We are so busy that there has been little time for

Let's face it: We are one food-lovin' nation. Deep-fried butter at the Texas State Fair? Pass it on over, y'all. A demitasse of cucumber foam from a four-star French restaurant? Don't mind if I do, Pierre. So, if we're so willing to eat anything and everything, why do we draw the line at bugs? The S ...
