...alone discern its functionality. But this hasn’t stopped me in the past week from putting together a layered potato, blue cheese, pear, fennel, and caramelized onion timbale; whipping up apricot cupcakes or concocting a spring pasta with chicken sausage, artichoke hearts, red pepper, eggplant, and zucchini. I hand-pack my own hamburgers; I’ve creamed, broiled, double-boiled, sifted, folded (gently), tossed, scalded, and celebrated. The family I’m housesitting for has stood by and watched in awestruck incredulity as I tear through their kitchen like a possessed Tasmanian devil...
...Even when she has ruled for the government, Cooke has undermined its strategy. Prosecutors have understandably tried to keep the case focused on their primary evidence: the Mujahadeen Data Form and hundreds of wiretap recordings of men talking about spending $3,500 to buy "zucchini" and "playing football in Somalia." The prosecutors argue that all this is code for supplying Islamic terrorists in Somalia, Kosovo and elsewhere through a "North American support cell" allegedly headed by Adham Amin Hassoun - one of the defendants in the case - and joined by Padilla and the third defendant, Kifah Wael Jayyousi...
Your cover story on organic vs. local food made me realize how fortunate I am to live in the Garden State [March 12]. Here, farmers sell produce from roadside stands, often within view of their fields, and offer everything from asparagus to zucchini.

As for my search for the perfect apple, I need not look farther than five miles from my home to find a farmer who grows...
...soup wasn't bad, if a little intense and sharp. In fact, a lot of the food--especially mushy stuff like the no-bean hummus and the pecan crumble--had a biting, rough quality. But some of it--like the mandoline-thin zucchini that served as pasta in the vegetable lasagna or the marinated shiitake sandwich made with thin layers of dehydrated soft crackers--was bright, fresh and fun. For dinner one night at a raw-food restaurant in L.A. I had clever little vegetable "pizzas" and a bowl of squash shaved into a linguine shape, bathed in curry...
...movie, already a hit at the Toronto Film Festival, honors and expands the old formula. The townsfolk are preparing for the Giant Vegetable Competition held each year by Lady Tottington (Helena Bonham Carter). To allay the villagers' fears that their supersize tomatoes and zucchini may be ravaged by rabbits, Wallace invents a gizmo that captures the critters without hurting them--much to the disapproval of Lady T.'s slimy suitor, Victor Quartermaine (a perfectly pompous Ralph Fiennes), who would rather blast the bunnies to bits. Soon the locals have a larger, more vicious threat: the mysterious, vegemaniacal Were-Rabbit...
