haha I think I have just eaten too much of it. I used to make and decorate cakes weekly for practice so my whole family got sick of cake and frosting.

First and foremost I learned how to make icing: beat together- 1/2 cup softened butter 1/2 cup crisco 1 tsp. vanilla gradually add- 4 cups powdered sugar then add 1 tbsp milk more or less if needed. To be honest I personally don't like the flavor of this, it just works really well for...

I think our rice cooker is still the same one my mom had from college haha. It is an ugly yellow color and you have to bend the cord a certain way for it to turn on. As crappy as it may look on the outside, it still works perfectly. As far as I'm concerned a rice cooker is a rice cooker. In my...

My boyfriend loves cinnabon rolls... I think I'll make these for him with a simple frosting for a valentines day breakfast! :) thanks!

Making dough is always fun, but a timely process. I usually buy.

Yes I've seen snow, but today was the first time I've ever seen snow falling from the sky!!! It was awesome :)

I have a Cannon brand digital camera. I've had it for almost 3 years and it takes pretty good photos as well as videos. I have a 2 GB memory card which is the perfect size for my uses. I take TONS of pictures, at the zoo, birthdays, concerts, vacations, everywhere I go, my camera goes too. It...

I wish I had a "real" butcher. I think I am going to google and see if I can find one near me now :)

A light weight fold able cart would work well. We take one when we go to the city, or china town. You could bring a collapsible cooler with an ice pack to store the freezer items in. When I get in line to pay at the store I strategically place certain items together so they will bag them...

This sounds like a fun idea I would love to try myself. When I make regular garlic bread I first spread on the thinnest layer of mayo, it sounds weird, but I've had good results. Also, I like a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese too.

As much as I love Japanese restaurants I haven't been going very often because they are so expensive. I LOVE sushi, so instead of just going to restaurants I've been going to sushi bars!! All you can eat lunch for around 12 bucks, count me in!!! :) I don't like anything that's not cooked, it...

Baby bok choy is really good floating in udon. I also like slices of hard boiled eggs. Yumm

Went out to the sushi bar! Delicious!

Went to the casino... UGHHH not a good idea. lol

I agree with everyone else, for cooking I measure to taste. For baking I am very exact, my mom even gave me measuring spoons for "pinch", "dash", and "smidgen" as a joke.

I like it when there are actual pieces of corn in my cornbread, its a nice surprise. So even when I'm doing a box recipe I'll just throw in some frozen corn.

I have learned so much from this book and I highly recommend it, even if you aren't really into science it's still an interesting read.

I'm from a city called "Dublin" so we do St. Patty's day all out! Huge city parade, 2 day festival with tons of near by vendors, soccer tournament, and even a green pancake breakfast! Its so much fun to see the city come together with so much spirit!!

Sounds great. I actually just posted a big paragraph on another thread about the risk of cancer due to the formation of toxic compounds on meats which cook for long times at high temperatures.

When certain meats are cooked at high temperatures toxic chemicals that are not found in uncooked meat, such as heterocyclic amines, are produced. Heterocyclic amines are carcinogenic chemicals produced when cooking meats such as beef, chicken, pork, or fish at high temperatures. When...

I haven't graduated yet, I ended up not choosing UNLV, but UC Davis for food science instead.

My boyfriend talked me into seeing Taken which I was timid about since I like happy movies. He really enjoyed it, but it just freaked me out. I asked him how he would feel if he was in my position as a young female...

Should be fine to eat as long as it was not left out for an extremely long time before refrigerating. I always thaw meats in the fridge so there is no room for error. Basically, cold inhibits growth and heat is said to kill MOST microorganisms. If something in the chicken is already toxic before...

Trader Joe's is the BEST! The strawberry mochi is amazinggggg! I can also munch on the white cheddar popcorn all day long lol. I'm going to apply there for a summer job!

I think the yeast might be the problem... sometimes the warm water isn't enough to wake up the yeast, you can try to add a tiny dash of sugar to the warm water so the yeast has something to nibble on.
