Hey all! I'm looking for inspiration for a nice fall cupcake to make for an upcoming bake sale/fundraiser deal. They need to be tough enough to travel well, since they'll be going there on public transit... Shoot me your recipes for any nice nutty, pumpkiney, or appley treats!

So, I had a pumpkin sitting on my counter that my aunt had given me. And decided that it needed using. I made some pumpkin spice cupcakes. and used the rest of the puree I got from this pumpkin to make a pie. Well, I intended to make a pie, but had enough filling for two. I had only preheated...

Hey all, I have a partial leg of lamb (weight is just over 1kg or around 2lbs) that I thawed to cook tonight... And I don't know what to do with it! Normally I've cooked it with a marinade based with red wine, but I'm pregnant and paranoid since apparently only about 70% of the alcohol will cook...

Hi all! Since it's just my fiance and me I tend to halve my dessert recipes and make two "mini desserts" instead of having a full size dessert that we're just going to end up pigging out on. I do it quite often with cheesecake, but I have a bit of trouble with cooking times. I'm not sure whether...

I LOVE Summer drinks, the lovely blended ice drinks that taste like an entire orchard smushed into a blender and pulverized with some ice. But... This summer I've got a baby in my belly, and can't enjoy those delicious creations. What're your favourite virgin summer drinks?!

Well, this might be the pregnancy talking. But I am DESPERATELY craving waffles coated with something akin to the Krispy Kreme original doughnut glaze. Anyone have any idea what's in that glaze, or how to make something similar?

Well, I noticed something called European Style Butter at the grocery store yesterday and decided that the extra 20 cents was worth my curiosity, since we needed butter anyways. Well, turns out that european style butter is apparently unsalted, which isn't seen as an ideal toast topper in this...

I don't have a pie plate, and can't muster the energy to go dig through my boxes that are still at my parents' place in hopes of finding mine. But I have two lemons just begging to be made into a pie, and I have a hankering for a nice buttery french apple pie. Just wondering if anyone has tried...

Well, I pulled two chicken breasts out of the freezer this morning to thaw. But I can't seem to come up with something to do with them... I think as a side dish I'm going to do rice with mushroom soup, any thoughts on what to do with the chicken?

Well, my fiance "rescued" a bbq from the neighbours who were trying to throw it our because the element inside was burnt out. He's decided we can just fill it with briquets, and has invited a bunch of friends over for a BBQ TONIGHT then left for work and asked me to "pretty pretty please" give...

I've been thinking about buying a Lodge Dutch Oven for a little while now, but I just have one issue. I have NO idea what size to buy. Right now it's just me and the fiance, but we have a baby on the way. I don't want to buy a smaller size just to have to replace it in a few years, but I've...

Anyone else a devoted Dutch Baby fan? They're my hands down favourite breakfast food :) We usually smother them in syrup before eating. I haven't made them in ages because I didn't have the same kind of pan I've always seen them made in, but I read today that some people make them in a cast iron...

I usually decorate my cupcakes, cakes, etc with fondant accents if not entirely with fondant. It depends on my mood :P Most websites I've stumbled across advise you to cover your rolling surface with icing sugar to prevent sticking but how to you get the icing sugar off your fondant once it's...

Hi everyone! My fiance has asked if I could pretty pretty please try to find a recipe similar to something his mom used to make. I'm hoping you guys can help. Apparently she used to slice a pocket in chicken breast and stuff in cheddar cheese, then bread and bake the chicken. Anyone know of...
