The book's subtitle, Real Food for Pretend Chefs , is typically lighthearted. Blumer entertains readers with puns and playful artwork, but packs his text with good advice, recipes that work and ideas that are worth paying attention to.

Depots are increasingly plentiful and conveniently located.
Separate and recycle paper and plastic bags, aluminum and tin cans, and glass and plastic bottles. Buying products such as recycled paper towels and napkins generates demand for them, which in turn drives the whole recycling machine. Exhaust all options before using heavy-duty drain cleaners. Keep a couple of rags and sponges in the kitchen and get into the habit of using them instead of paper towels. Wash them with a non-phosphorous, environmentally friendly detergent.
