When the holidays are here it means the holidaze craze has begun, and it includes spending time in the kitchen.

On my way home from LAX, after sitting inside an airplane with a few dozen obnoxious teenagers, my plane landed and once I picked up my checked luggage, I grabbed a NYC taxi.
I immediately noticed, as I had many times before, that almost all cabbies are talking on their cell phones, even though New York's Taxi and Limousine Commission has banned the devices—even hands-free ones—for years.
