Roast chicken is one of the few things I can cook well. Easy and impressive at the same time, especially with white-wine gravy made from the drippings. I also make a low-fat cheesy hash brown casse...

I'm so disappointed to hear that the taste is not there for these. I live in a place where even a 60-mile drive and visits to multiple grocery stores yields very limited ingredients. M...

Lettuce, spinach, coconut, shrimp, rare steak... I don't know how I ever hated avocados and guacamole, but I wouldn't touch them. Now that I've been converted, I think avocados are one...

Love them both, but I haven't done a scrambled sammich in years. I grew up in the deep South where insert-ingredient-plus-mayonnaise sandwiches were king (banana and mayo, or canned-pi...

My mother-in-law has a similar tool and uses it for perfect little tomato slices. I agree it seems silly, but if you entertain a lot it might actually be quite handy. I usually make a ...

cake balls!

I'm a native of the deep South, and although I have never seen this delicacy in person I think it sounds like a pretty natural (and awesome!) match. I can't wait to try it someday. Aro...

I second cinnamon and confectioner's sugar. Also, butter! And I LOVE the idea of having savory toppings, too. Maybe even salsa?

Stefan seemed like a shoo-in from the beginning, but I really love Carla, and she's been proving herself more and more. I'm still thinking I might put my money on Stefan, but I'm hopi...

This kit would have been perfect for my nine-year-old cousin's "Decorate-Your-Own-Cupcake" birthday party last year. We had to keep reminding all the girls to keep the pastry bags rolled up and squ...

I grew up in rural Georgia, and recognize a lot of things on Fingernail's list, minus the Churros and Frito Pie. I don't know if I'd be as keen on it now, but I adored the soupy instant mashed pota...

While not entirely devoted to home design, Des http://www.designspongeonline.com/ fills my niche for daily home decor goodness...

http://smittenkitchen.com/ I love Smitten Kitchen for its REALLY beautiful photography, fun/funny writing, and interesting recipes.

I'm making a few kinds of truffles or "balls": Red velvet cake balls: http://bakerella.blogspot.com/2007/12/r...

For a more tasteful and less kitschy alternative, may I shamelessly plug my own Obama art print: http://www.etsy.com...

When I was in college, I used to bake late at night as part of my lets-put-off-doing-my-school-projects-as-long-as-possible problem... My roommates knew that if I was making muffins a...

Another shameless plug from a new Etsy seller!.... here's my new shop for unique custom silhouettes and other art prints: http://www.nanimart.etsy.com

I'm from the South (Georgia), and we *only* serve dressing around here. It's cooked in a separate pan, but it's a very moist dish, and my FAVORITE part of the Thanksgiving meal. My boy...

LOVE! Would not, could not pay for. Would never use as a serving tray– only to hang on the wall...

A cleaver! I use it for so many things (most of which it's not really designed for.) Plus, it's fun.
