Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980).

Here’s how to know you’ve overstayed your welcome, even when—and especially when—a gracious host has made you feel right at home.

Zucchini tends to be a seasonal point of frustration—it always manages to pile up, whether thanks to our local CSA or absent-minded farmers’ market shopping. For long term storage, you can always freeze zucchini, but if you just need a little extra time to work your way through it all, you absolutely should store it in the fridge and we’ll explain why.

I believe everyone should have a few “emergency” dinners that can be assembled even when the kitchen’s bare and time is short. These meals (like my favorite Trader Joe’s fried rice), should require next to no effort or thought. Bonus points if they cost less than $2 and are ready in less than 30 minutes, like Zatarain’s Red Beans and Rice Mix.
