Making your own bagels is worth it? Oh, Slate, tell me more! Great article on whether to make your own staple foods.
Cost-effective is great, but delicious-effective is even better. Two things that make me cry:
- cooking something that takes forever (or just a lot of effort) that I could get more deliciously easily (or, why Helen has never tried to make french fries, despite her deep love for them)
- getting something out that I could make better and cheaper myself (or, why Helen hates steakhouses)
Thanks to Anna for the link.
