9/16/08: Well, I survived Ike! We were some of the very lucky ones. We had no damage to our house or property. We had water and were only without electricity for about two days. We did have to throw out a lot of food in the fridge but everything in my big freezer in the garage was fine. That's where I keep all my meat. The internet was out until late this afternoon. It's great to be back online!

6/11/08: A lot of my recipes call for "slivering" an onion. I was asked today what I meant by that so I tracked down a video that shows what I mean. As you'll see, the woman in the video says that there are two ways to slice an onion and what I call "slivering" is the method that she demonstrates. Click here to watch the video.

5/18/08: You're probably wondering what my newest advertiser, Netflix, has to do with low carb. Nothing really. It's just that I starting using Netflix about a month or so ago and love it. I have the $8.99 per month plan which entitles me to one DVD movie in the mail at a time and I can watch as many online movies as I like while I'm waiting for my next DVD to arrive in the mail. Having my DVD movies delivered every Wednesday and Saturday works out great for me. I send the Wednesday movie back on Thursday and the next one arrives on Saturday. I can keep that one for the whole weekend then send it back on Monday. Of course I could keep the movie as long as I like but I've worked it out so that I can get the most movies per month possible by sending them back right away the next day. So far I haven't had a DVD arrive late.
The selection of online movies to watch is somewhat limited but I've already watched quite a few that I thoroughly enjoyed and I've got a list of over 100 more that I'd like to watch when I have the time. Of course you'll need a fast internet connection and a large monitor to view movies online. I do, so for me it's no different than watching a movie on my TV. Plus, I get to hear the movies in stereo using my good computer speakers. Our old TV doesn't look or sound nearly as good as my computer. Anyway, I highly recommened Netflix. It will save you the gas you'd use running back and forth to the video store and the cost per movie is a lot cheaper anyway. Once you sign up, you can read descriptions of every movie that's available and some even have online previews. It sure beats standing at the video store staring at row after row of DVDs trying to decide what to rent. Plus, you can rent movies (also old TV shows, documentaries, concerts, etc.) that are no longer available at the rental places. If you'd like to give Netflix a try, they have a free two-week trial period and you can cancel at any time.

4/10/08: I added a Google search feature to my recipe page. It seems to work quite well but it's not perfect. If you use it to search for a particular recipe or ingredient, don't assume that all recipes of that type will come up.

4/9/08: IMPORTANT NOTICE: If you're wondering what has happened to Jimmy Moore's Low Carb Discussion forums, they were damaged by a hacker the other day. Jimmy is working hard to fix the problem as quickly as possible. If you received an email that looks like it's from Jimmy, and has this as the Subject line "LowCarbDiscussion.com Is Back", don't click the link in the email. It was sent by the hacker. In fact, I just read on Jimmy's blog that if you click the link in that email, you'll get a virus. Jimmy will let us know via his blog when his new forum is up and running.
4/4/08: I added some Tupperware products to my Gadgets pages. Scroll down to the bottom of this page to see my review.
4/4/08: I've started a new updates page because the old one was getting rather long. To read the previous updates page, click the link below for archive #5.
4/4/08: I get a lot of requests for a search feature on my site so that you can search for recipes containing a particular ingredient and that sort of thing. Well, I've learned that you can use Google to do the job. Here is what you do:
1. Enter this into Google: site:genaw.com/lowcarb "search for these words"
2. Replace "search for these words" with your phrase (type the name of an ingredient, etc.), no quotes needed, that you want to search for on my site.
