Pressing Matters


I use olive oil in almost everything I make, so I go through a rather large amount of it. The best stuff I have found that I can get in large amounts that won't make us broke is at New Yazmeen Bakery. It's from Lebanon, and it's fantastic. Way better than the tasteless generic Costco stuff, this "oil of the gods" is brimming with green fruitiness and just the right amount of "bite".

They sell it in several sizes, but I get the 1.5L size because it perfectly spaces out my trips to New Yaz. You see, whenever I go there to get my olive oil fix, I also get dinner for the family.

And that's always a happy day, filled with excitement and salivating.

Salivating here. Next to you, of course, New Yasmeen is probably what I miss most about Michigan.

If olive oil is made from olives, then what is baby oil made from?

Mineral oil ;) My experience working for J&J taught me something!

Are you sure it's not from babies?
