1. Any recommendations on the best coffee to buy at the grocery store? I prefer not having to do mail order because I am not organized enough to keep track of my supply. I mix caff and decaf because I am too hyper to handle much caffeine. ;-) I currently buy Starbucks French roast and the decaf Caffe Verona at Publix. Any better choices?
2. Anyone have a good gumbo recipe? I've made Prudhomme's but it takes so much effort. Is it possible to make a good gumbo without spending 20 minutes making a roux, or is gumbo without a roux an oxymoron? (My guess is that the answers to the last sentence are no and yes.)
3. We can't find a decent steak in this town. We've decided that we need to use mail order. Are Omaha Steaks good? Any other recommendations? We don't each much red meat, but we like a good filet every other Friday night -- plus, it's easy to prepare with a potato and a salad, and easy cleanup.
4. Same question as #3 but for salmon.
Thanks in advance for your help.
EDIT: Throw red chiclets at me if I ever criticize someone for a typo on a thread title.
