The Social Poets: Breaking News: Egypt Jubilant, This Blogger Called It Right: Mubarak Leaves
The Social Poets: Breaking News: Egypt Jubilant, This Blogger Called It Right: Mubarak Leaves - been writing these Egypt news posts on The Social Poets in case Egyptians were barred from obvious news and political sites. Who would think a poetess would be a subversive? :)

From NYC Chef Chris Santos: Shrimp, Ribs, Whoopie Pies
Fabulous food for four on a budget from The Early Show on CBS.
From Denny: CBS The Early Show sponsors the Shoestring Budget series where chefs compete to see who can come in under $40, serving four for a meal. Yeah, and we get the benefit of the stellar recipes!
This week's chef is Chris Santos of the very popular New York City restaurant, The Stanton Social, that has been a New York mainstay for six years running. Be sure to check out his awesome menu because I sure did. I always look at the desserts just to see how innovative, creative and attuned a chef is to most people's taste buds. Are they ridiculous over-worked creations or are they destined to become wonderful standards? Santos passes The Denny Test. :) Santos has a newer eatery, called the Beauty & Essex, already one of the hottest eateries in the city. This chef is definitely on the move.
At Stanton Social he shows his eclectic colors where he offers to locals and tourists tastes. He offers standards like grilled cheese and tomato soup dumplings to more exotic lobster tacos.
Check out Chris' three course meal for an inexpensive dinner. He even shows you how to make your own marshmallow fluff for the Whoopie Pies. I like the way this guy thinks!
Recipes Featured:
Salt and Pepper Shrimp
Tangerine Barbeque Glazed Baby Back Ribs
Whoopie Pies
