Grrrr! I am so totally irritated at those Test Kitchen people .
I wanted a recipe from the TV show, had to register at the site, agree to
get a newsletter , blah blah blah, so I could get the recipe. OK. fine.
(Good recipe, btw, orange chicken, yums were had by all).
Now, I seem to have agreed to get "Cooks Country" Magazine. I got one issue
(a free trial, apparently, that turns into a subscription unless you send
back a refusal form, with your own postage), and now they are sending me
bills.
It's a perfectly fine magazine but I DO NOT WANT.
I feel like an idiot (an unusual state for me), but they *totally* suckered
me!
Blargh.
