My mom's chicken and dumplings will always make me feel better. Chow mein (made by my sister's mother-in-law) has become a comfort food in recent years. So either way I think I crave that motherly touch when I'm sick. What's Your Sick Day Dish? |

Well that's a neat trick. Even though I generally prefer to let my butter sit out to soften, my sister's microwave has a button for softening butter and cream cheese. It does the trick in a pinch. Smart Tip: A Quick Way to Save Over-Softened Butter America's Test Kitchen |

We do a cornbread dressing, and this year I'm going to learn how to make it from my grandmother. I know there's cornbread, sage, and giblets involved, but no one else knows how to make it. Time to learn! How to Make Easy Thanksgiving Stuffing Cooking Lessons from The Kitchn |

I'm making a Pawley's Pie (similar to derby pie) that may or may not make it to a family reunion on Sunday and pumpkin spice affogato. If I get to it this weekend, I might even go ahead and make chocolate syrup and salted caramel to have handy. What's Cooking This Weekend? Weekend of November 3-4, 2012 |

I might've gone through a brief phase of wanting crustless bread, but it definitely didn't last. My grandfather also proclaimed the crust as the best part, and I'm sure I wanted to emulate him. Did Your Parents Cut the Crusts Off Your Sandwiches? Reader Survey |

The little town I grew up in got its start in the 1600s as a rice producer. Rice is definitely an important part of most meals in the South. I, personally, like to have some sort of bread with my meals. Do You Need Rice to Make It a Meal? |

We had a week at my elementary school called International Week. Each grade was assigned a country to learn about, and each class did a presentation on a certain aspect of the country. When I was in 2nd grade our country was France and we did a cheese tasting. I had my first bite of blue cheese and promptly gagged and had to drink a bunch of water. I couldn't stand blue cheese until just a couple of years ago. What Was Your Worst Childhood Food Experience? |

I made quick pickles earlier, which were just delightful on my brat. (Can a brat be delightful? I feel like it needs a manlier word) Tomorrow I'm baking off some scones with roasted strawberries and cream. What's Cooking This Weekend? Weekend of June 16-17, 2012 |

I love me some coconut milk ice cream. I'm lactose intolerant, but I just pop some Lactaid pills when I want to eat ice cream. And yogurt doesn't seem to have any adverse effects on me, so frozen yogurt is also a completely tasty option for me. Lactose Intolerance Got You Down? 10 Dairy-Free Ice Cream Recipes |

My new favorite is French Toast ice cream made by High Road Craft. I died a little when I ate it. I'll always have a special place in my heart for the peach ice cream my grand-daddy made in the summer with fresh Carolina peaches. It's Ice Cream Week at The Kitchn!
