Okay, so I'm almost a year late to the party... but this is the first time I've ever seen this!! Thanks, AT!

Homemade Monkey Bread!

The bedside lamps are from IKEA. $11.99, I think. They look more expensive than that... http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog...

thanks everyone for the tofu tips- this is exactly the kind of stuff I needed to know... like the fact that I should bake it! Baking would have never occured to me, I was thinking soup/stir fry and...

mmm... thanks renata! I'll have to try a non-peanut version of this for us, I've made nut based sauces with almond butter instead... anyone else??

Hi faith- Yes, I think more firm would be better. I've eaten tofu out but never cooked it. The bf has an idea that it can only be squishy or slimy with no flavor. I have to prove him ...

I'm a tofu newbie... Finally convinced my bf 'just to try it' because we need more healthy protein. Can someone point me to a flavorful recipe that will make it 'less squishy'? I'd ap...

Trader Joe's Harvest Grains blend with a handful of cranberries and raisins thrown in with a pinch of cinnamon and cumin and a few red pepper flakes. I was going for a sweet/savory thing but I don'...

In Ohio, my parents were married on Sweetest Day, my best friend's parents were engaged on it. Our local Target stores in OH and Pittsburgh, where I live now, carry Sweetest Day cards. It's ...

These were available at our TJ's but were a bit smaller (about the size of a grape) and were called "Kiwiberries". And, they're really good. :)

Also, using a bag, hold your wrist straight and quickly move your entire arm back and forth. This gets rid of the wobbly looking lines that sometimes result when you just use a wrist motion.

I can attest to the accuracy of this report! My favorite market in Pittsburgh is the one smack in the middle of U of Pitt's campus on Friday afternoons. Not only does it draw many professionals fro...

Slice a peach in half, remove the pit and sprinkle the cut sides with cinnamon sugar. Makes a so-so peach better and a great peach spectacular. My favorite summer breakfast. (and snack. and dessert.)

A big DITTO for Jeni's Ice Cream (no relation ;) ). My good friend lives just down the block in the Short North, it's always a stop on our visits from Pittsburgh! The salted caramel and backyard ...

Woo hoo for IKEA Pittsburgh! Growing up nearby, I never knew it was a big deal to have one until my friends from college who were from Cleveland and Columbus would talk about the trips their famili...

My parents have a bar very similar to this that my dad built sometime in the late 70s. It's used as a liquor cabinet/bar and has held up very well thru decades of parties! It's the perfect place fo...

Rog- Try mixing up a couple lime juice, honey and shredded fresh mint (all amounts to taste) to make a dressing for your watermelon - it is the only way we eat it! Yum, now I want some!
