From getting a shot of glamour to renewing a passport or putting dinner on the table fast, we've got ways to do it in double time.
Dinner on the Table in 10 Minutes
We went to New York Times food writer Mark Bittman, whose article "101 Simple Meals Ready in Ten Minutes or Less" struck a chord with time-strapped readers. They flooded the newspaper's website, says Bittman, author of the book How to Cook Everything Vegetarian. "It was the most e-mailed article of the month. I got great feedback and terrific ideas from people all over the world." Here—just for O readers—is one more simple meal:
MISO TUNA
Combine 2/3 cup dark (red) miso, 1 tablespoon minced ginger, 1 teaspoon minced garlic, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne (or to taste). Thin with enough sake to make the mixture pasty. Spread tuna steaks with this paste. Grill or broil until rare.
