I usually pick the topic for Highlights based on whatever the blogs I’m subscribed to seem to be talking about most.\u00a0 However, I’m really sick of hearing about KFC’s new breadless sandwich, The Double Down<\/a> (let me know if you want more<\/a> articles, I’ve got 36), and, though I love him and his work, I figured the world didn’t need another post focused on Jamie Oliver<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Luckily, the blogging world was also full of instructional pieces this week.\u00a0 So, here they are, this week’s Highlights from my Reader<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Highlights for April 11-17: How to…<\/h2>\n

…Re-Heat leftovers in the microwave<\/a>.\u00a0 A useful post with lots of helpful comments from The Kitchn<\/p>\n

…Make yogurt and fruit popsicles. <\/a>I was just talking to Brian about doing this, now someone’s posted about it.\u00a0 Now I’ll have to do it.<\/p>\n

…Save 95% on groceries <\/a>by shopping at ethnic markets.\u00a0 Another post from Cheap Healthy Good that lives up to the blog’s name.\u00a0 Now I just have to locate an ethnic market…<\/p>\n

…Cook ramps, according to YumSugar<\/a> (not that I’ve ever had them, or seen them in a store, but “everyone’s” talking about them!)<\/p>\n

…Order wine without looking like an idiot<\/a>.\u00a0 Maybe this week will Serious Eats will do a post on “How to not feel offended when you’re carded and told you don’t look like you could possibly be over 21.”<\/p>\n

…Chop and chiffonade herbs. <\/a>Do anyone else’s knife skills suck as much as mine?\u00a0 I need all the help I can get.<\/p>\n

Use coupons without it taking over your life<\/a>.\u00a0 Hooray!\u00a0 I love saving money, but I could never be one of those serious couponers, no offense to my friends that are.<\/p>\n

Finally, how to workout–the Facebook<\/a> way.\u00a0 (Thanks to Rachel<\/a> for this one!)<\/p>\n

Every Saturday, I choose a theme and highlight blog posts, websites and news articles from my Google Reader which I found interesting (and hope you do too!) If you want more reading, check out \u201cWhat I\u2019m Reading\u201d on my sidebar.\u00a0 And don’t forget to add Relishments<\/a> to your reader!

\nI’ve got blog posts and news articles in my reader on pretty much any food or healthy living topic you can imagine.\u00a0 Anyone have any topics they’d like to see highlighted?<\/p>\n
