10 Tips That Blew Our Minds This Year — The Kitchn’s Best of 2013
We’re always on the lookout for small tips that make a big impact in the kitchen, the ones that save us time and money, solve a common cooking problem, or — let’s be honest — are just really really awesome. The ingenious tips we couldn’t wait to share this year include a simple method for keeping guacamole green, a surprising way to cook perfect bacon on the stove, and a you-won’t-believe-it-until-you-try-it hack for using a mason jar on your blender.
My Christmas in Mexico City — Christmas Around the World
One of my favorite holiday memories of Mexico City was on my first New Year’s Eve, when I ran down a dark street in my patent-leather heels, clutching an empty tote bag. My friend’s grandmother called, “Córrele, córrele!” (Run, run!)
In the States I usually spent New Year’s Eve in a bar or at a party, but dashing through a residential neighborhood just after midnight felt thrilling — especially if it truly meant I’d travel more in the new year. Maybe the red underwear (a Mexico City New Year’s tradition) and 12 grapes eaten exactly at midnight would work their lucky magic, too.
