Food & Drink - 28 September 2006

Hi - Do I scrimp and save and spend all of my salary on school fees for a private secondary school education for my two children (weekly board). Giving up holidays and lots of treats, reducing drastically cinema days and restaurant meals, struggling with birthdays and christmas, new clothes, my personal social lifestyle. Or do I send them to one of the horrid Westminster state schools, where headmasters get stabbed, children are bullied and killed and female teachers get raped. Results are among the worst in the country and my son (11 next year) would have to travel on public transport by himself.

Can a school destroy a childs chances or will good parenting win out? Will my children dislike me more for taking away their lifestyle/treats, etc or for sending them to a hard knock school??

Ive been trying to make kimchi and radish kimchi. All the time they came out bad and into the trash. The kimchi came out not sour at all like it supposed to be, the radish soaked and absorbed even more water into it. Not sour at all but just watery look and bitter taste.
Anyone has any suggestion to make it good, sour, not watery, and not bitter?
Thanks,

How popular are hotdogs in Britain?
I've never seen any of these tasty gems in any British movies.
What do you put on them if they are popular?
Thanks.

I love the Korean restaurant shows on International channel in 2005 (now AZN Television). Unfortunately, now they don't broadcast those shows anymore.
The shows were about a group of people with their own talk stage designed with some tables and foods for participatants(???spell check?) at the end of the shows. They would watch around 10 or so best restaurants and their best recipes of Korea (in South Korea). These don't have any subtitle and people often got their mouth watered ( expression) each time watching how the foods were made from each of the selected restaurants chosen for the show.
Anyway, if anyone can tell me where adn how to get any chance to look or watch these shows again...or buying or downloading any Korean cooking, food videos or clips, I'd greatly appreciate that! Thanks,

I remember hearing about someone preparing chicken this way in a book I read. A whole chicken and vegetables were put inside a hollowed out melon of some kind and the baked slowly in the oven. Anyone know an actual recipe for something like that?

I'm vegan.
I hate cooking.
I'm a horrid cook.
And there are no directions on the package.

I have yellow and red beans. Can I cook the lentils like rice with just water and a little salt or does it require more thought?

I have come to the conclusion that people are either a red or green fan, not both. This applies to lollies, drinks, icecream. I myself love anything mint, lime etc and my boyfriend is a red, pink freak. Do you agree with my thoughts on the topic??
