I've been writing about food for the Indianapolis Star since the summer of 2005. We launched the Taste food section in April 2006 and I've been cooking (and writing) like mad ever since.

Hi Jolene! There is a story this week in "People" about the vegie-pureeing sneakiness. Hard to tell which came first...the spinach or the brownie...now a lawsuit! My oh my. Joanie
Thanks for the comment Jolene! I guess I am just so proud of myself and I just wish EVERYONE else was too - but I guess as long as the people that matter most are - the rest can get other it.
Jolene, I read your article in yesterday's (4/2) Star on the burning hands syndrome from jalepenos. Oh My Gosh. I made the mistake of touching the evil habenero and my hands were on fire for hours. I called a pharmacy and the pharmacist thought I was crazy. He said he had never heard of a reaction. I called the ER and was told it was a third degree burn and to soak in milk. This did help. Years later, I was making salsa and using jalapenos. I didn't use gloves b/c I assumed the jalapeno to be a mild pepper. WRONG. I was miserable. I will never ever ever touch a pepper without a minimum of a rubber glove. I don't think people realize just how serious these reactions are. Thank you for the wonderful article. I enjoy your writing very much.
