When you first get into cooking, cutlery is the last thing on your mind. Between all the different types of pots and pans, and the increasing variety of kitchen appliances, little thought if any is given to the knives you use in your South Hill, WA apartment. But now that youve got the basics covered, you can turn your attention to a quality knife set. If you are so inclined, you can spend a downright ridiculous amount of money on culinary knives. When spending this much money on anything, it is only natural to do whatever you can to take care of it. Quality cutlery is no different. There are a few things to keep in mind when caring for high end kitchen knives, but all it takes is a little know-how and you will get the most out of them. For starters, always wash your knives by hand. Chemicals in dishwasher detergent, and high temperatures while inside the machine, can wear down the knife and increase the rate of corrosion. Now you need to get a good cutting board; for most chefs, this means wood. End-grain boards are the easiest on your knife because the cutting edge can move in line with the grain of the wood, allowing it to sink ever so slightly into the board. This puts less stress on the blade. Even if you use an end-grain cutting board, your blades will lose their edge over time. If you knife isnt as sharp as it used to be, consider honing the blade. You may have seen chefs on TV or at restaurants sliding a knifes edge along what appears to be a metal dowel with a handle? That is a honing rod, and they are an easy tool you can use to bring back some of the sharpness you lost. If it gets too bad, however, you will need to use more aggressive techniques, or simply have it professionally sharpened. While it is certainly possible to survive in todays world without ever cooking in your apartment in Puyallup, WA, chances are the culinary arts will take up a significant amount of your time. When you spend that much of your time doing something it only makes sense to want to have quality tools for the job. Some might be appalled by how much you spent on that paring knife but youll get the last laugh when youre still using it 30 years from now.

You might have noticed something different about the local tea supplier T-4-2 as of late. The store, just a few miles north of Willow Hill Apartments in Puyallup, WA , was sold in September to a husband and wife team who have spent the last several weeks revamping the buildings interior. The new store, Cosmopolitan Tea and Café, opened two weeks ago and offers a selection of tea and espresso as well as some light dishes for lunch. They have a wide variety of loose teas available by the ounce. Their cozy environment is great for a quick business lunch or cup of afternoon tea. Another local source for tea is British Bites, formerly known as British Aisle. The owners re-named the store and moved into a larger building this September in order to better meet the needs of their customers. At the new location you will find an assortment of British style foods including crisps, biscuits and British chocolates along with other imported British goods. The best part about British Bites is the selection of fresh, authentic pastries! From macaroons to shortbread, you really cant go wrong! If you are just in the market for loose tea, both British Bites and Cosmopolitan Tea and Café have large selections to choose from; the food is really where they differ. If you want authentic British style dishes and pastries British Bites is the obvious choice. If you want a more modern, lunch café experience I suggest Cosmopolitan Tea and Café. Now that youre all stocked up on tea you can curl up in your Puyallup, WA, apartment and wait for this whole winter thing to pass. A little Earl Grey is all you really need to get through the coming cold months.
