I'd like this book for some elegant new recipe ideas.

My favorite crockpot dish is a simple roast beef with onions, potatoes and carrots. It was a comfort food when I was growing up and still cannot be beat.

Squash...roasted/grilled/pureed into soup...any shape!

I love Chai, but not too sweet. Then Earl Grey is a close second.

I didn't make ice cream this month, but I did eat some yummy new flavors from Edy's. Not the same as homemade but still refreshing!

Dramatic, calming, SHARP...I love it!

Mint chocolate chip is my favorite, so if I could learn to make it myself...it could be dangerous! :)

I iron something when I want to wear it. On the rare occasion, I'll "iron ahead".

Grilled veggies would be my favorite food to cook in this pan. Getting me hungry now!

Definitely chicken, and any thick cuts of meat like roasts and steaks.

The worst mess was the pervasive one; we remodeled over a period of months and there was a ton of thick white dust that got all over the household (drywall, etc.). We'd vacuum and wipe repeatedly,...

Key Lime...mmm!

This would make a great gift for Mom.

Egads do I need this!

Cool idea! I'd include my grandmother's beef goulash recipe.

Grilled veggies, fresh from the farm stand...mmm!
