antipasto pastaI made this last night using only things I already had in the fridge and pantry. It was soooo yummy, and could be altered to include anything you have at home. If you don’t have the ingredients listed here, don’t worry, just add whatever else you have. Roasted capsicum (peppers), fresh mozzarella cheese, marinated/grilled eggplant or ( Read more... )

Wow, this is a great idea and it sounds so yummy. I will have to try it.

A punnet is not a measure/item we have in the U.S. I assume it's like the little baskets we have that hold about a pint? Is it an exact measure, or just a descriptive term that means "a cute little basket"? I'm wondering because Google doesn't convert it in the calculator, and since my son maintains the calculator, it wouldn't be hard to get it added - if it's an exact measure.

sorry - i keep forgetting about international measurements and standards. in australia, a punnet is just a small plastic container that cherry tomatoes come in. i used about 10 small cherry tomatoes, or half a cup. you can really add as many or asf ew as you want though, it's a personal preference. i just had half a punnet of cherry tomatoes left in my fridge, and that ended up being a good portion for two people.

What a cool job - maintaining the Google conversion calculator that is. I bet he's rolling in it :-p

Actually, that's not his main job - he just does it in his 10% time (Googler's get !)% of their time to work on projects that they think are fun, useful or interesting.) When he started working on it, we had fun finding all the obsolete measeurements we could so he could add them. Try typing "0.0428625 feet meters in inch nails" without the quotes in the search bar.

He can't talk about his "real" job - it's all confidential. I have no idea what he really does.

BTW, the best part of working a Google is the food. http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2005/08/keyword-chefs.html They've added an Indian kitchen since this was written, too.

I've always wondered why people would add salt to the water..
