Q: I'm getting ready to move into a new home and am devastated that I'll be leaving my gas stove behind! There's no possibility of installing a gas stove in the new house as there aren't any gas lines in the neighborhood, so I'm looking for advice on the best substitute.

Anne and John Moss are true renaissance people. When not working at their family-run veterinary clinic or tending the myriad animals on their small Southern Pennsylvania farm, the pair can be found participating in a wide range of eccentric activities. But whether re-enacting a civil war battle, sailing a reproduction pirate ship, fighting a medieval joust, or performing in a traveling circus, food plays a big role in their history- and merry-making.
