Tomorrow night is our one year anniversary. Im cooking his favorite- chicken parmesan. The first question is: Will rigatoni pasta be good served under chicken parmesan? The second: Does a salad, chicken parmesan and parmesan covered sliced baked potatoes sound like a good combination? Thanks for the answers

I'm ashamed to admit, I am not certain of how to prepare baked potatoes. My son does not care for them, so I've never made them. Which potatoes are best? Do I simply wash them, wrap them in foil and bake at 350 for an hour? Any ideas on how to spice it up a little?

Thank you!

yesterday two of my friends were over and we were on this girl christina's myspace, and she had a picture of this girl smoking on it. and martha (one of the girls that were at my house) was like 'does christina smoke?' and i was like i dunno, but she drinks alcohol! i said that because she had a picture on her myspace of a pack of wine coolers and under it it said 'wine coolers, my addiction' or something. and martha was like 'haha they're only wine coolers'. and the conversation pretty much stopped there. but what did she mean by 'they're only wine coolers'? does that mean they have no alcohol in them or something?
christina and i are 13, and martha is 12 btw.

I am babysitting and I turned off the oven after making macaroni. The oven hadn't cooled down in an unusually long time so we put a wet/cold cloth over it and it made it worse.
How do we cool it off?
and yes it is turned OFF.

I have this recipe for a dip that requires "softened" cream cheese so I left it out all day today (7 hours), is it still good or should I buy a new one or is the current one still safe?

what is the real difference between using vegetable oil and something like crisco shortening to "fry" something on the stove? I want to know if I can use crisco in place of vegetable oil to avoid the store. i know that i fry chicken wings in crisco, so why not something like shrimp? thanks.

I've been really craving something spicy to eat for dinner. I can't go out to buy anything so I may be limited in terms of ingredients and I can't use meat. Does anyone have a good one I could make quickly?

After joining this site I realized that I have a lot of great ideas for parties, especially sweet 16s. I have been looking for work for a while now and can't find anything, so I am thinking of starting an online party consulting business, you know come up with a theme, plan the menu, decorations, create invitations,etc. Is this a good idea? How much would you pay for someone to plan you birthday party or Event? Do you have any ideas? How should I operate? Business names? (Wow I have a lot of questions, Lol) Thanks!

We want to have a casual wedding reception with a pig roast or barbecue with a smoker. I am looking for a caterer or a restaurant who does this type of thing. I am pretty flexible. We just want it to be good food in an casual party atmosphere that doesn't cost a fortune.
