Next week, we're going on a ski trip...on a budget. We're looking for meals (Lunch & Dinner) that we can prepare in our hotel room that will be reasonably healthy, nourishing, and delicious. Assume that our room will have a fridge (and possibly access to a microwave/kettle), but nothing else.

Help! I used to have a cookbook I bought at Target and I'd like to find another copy of it. I bought it around 2004 or 2005. It was wirebound and the most notable feature was that it was divided into three 'sections': the top was starters, middle was main course, bottom was desserts. You flipped the various sections open and mixed-and-matched your own menu. It had a lot of international recipes and I'm pretty sure it was originally published in England (based on language and measurements)

Ginger Milk Tea is my new beverage obsession, but it's time-consuming to make. I'm thinking about making a large amount of ginger-infused water that I can keep in the fridge and reheat when I want some tea. Will this work, or is there an easier way to make this? (recipe I'm currently using inside)

I made too much sour cream and onion dip for a party and I don't want to waste it, but also I don't want to keep eating it with chips. More advanced cooks, is there any other way I can reuse (some of) it without somehow ruining the sour cream and making a disgusting gloppy mess? All I can think of is spreading it on toast, so other suggestions would be great. Ingredients listed inside. Thanks!

For the holidays, I was given a 5L box of Franzia Cabernet Sauvignon (the guilty party has already been punished with a houseful of sick toddlers). I'm not a wine snob, but I tend to reserve my drinking for social occasions and I've yet to find the right moment to drag out this behemoth.
What do I do with this wine?

Help my sanity - share your grainless vegetarian recipes! I can't tolerate any grains, rice, oat, barley, wheat, corn, quinoa, etc. This means that traditional "gluten free" replacements are out of the question. I'm starting to hit the wall in terms of being able to deal with it, and I need some variety in my diet! Right now, I'm avoiding eating because it's so disheartening, and I want the joy back in meal times. A sample of what I eat currently under the fold.

Food and Group Theory-Filter: I claimed that tasty foods and the operation of serving them together satisfy all the group axioms. Now I have to make Parmesan, spinach, and chocolate mousse taste good in a pie. Ideas, please? (Bonus points if you can work in some Thai peanut-lime sauce. Bonus bonus points if you can define inverses in this system.)
