There are many different coffee brands out there from which you can choose. Some just know what they like, and that is all that they buy. While I was growing up, I never thought much about it because I did not drink it, but my mom drank a lot of it. Though there were times she would try other brands, she always ended up with Folgers. That was what both she and her husband liked, so there really was not point in trying something else. For me, however, I have quite a few that I now like.

Bundt cake recipes are cake recipes that use a “bundt” cake pan or a round baking pan that with a hole in the middle and ridged, decorated sides.

I love baking cakes. Recently, I have starting experimenting with decorating cakes in new ways. I learned something quickly: I can put frosting on a cake just fine, provided it requires no fancy stuff. So, I started using jelly beans on the top of my cakes instead of complicated frosting configurations. I stick them together in patterns or make pictures. They don’t look professional, but they sure look fun. My nieces and nephews all want me to make their birthday cakes this year. However, instead of signing up for birthday baking, I sent the kids’ mother a link to the article where I got the idea. If you want to read the full article, you can go to Ten Additional Uses for Jelly Beans.

It’s tough to find someone who doesn’t like chocolate. Maybe it’s partially due to the fact that chocolate releases endorphins, the same neurotransmitters that make you feel good after you sneeze or have sex or fall in love. The nearly universal draw to chocolate makes chocolate, in any shape or form, an extremely popular gift. This is as true for children as it is for grandparents; who didn’t love trick-or-treating when they were little or receiving a box of chocolates for Valentine ’s Day when they were older? Chocolate is a great gift for just about anyone, big or small.
Of course, all chocolate is not created equal. Though the mass-produced chocolates made by companies like M&M, Mars, and Hershey’s taste good, they’re really nothing compared to gourmet chocolate. It’s a bit of a shame that some people go their whole lives thinking that “gourmet chocolate” refers to those heart-shaped boxes of factory truffles passed around after Valentine’s Day, but this couldn’t be further from the truth (especially if you get to the box of Valentine’s chocolates last and all that’s left are the picked-over remains, most of them with holes in the bottom where Aunt May punched her thumb through to see what kind of chocolate each contained).

Of all the places to find a book of receipts Mount Rushmore South Dakota was not a place I would have thought to look. In the tourist center there was a book of receipts from the local people and it contained some wonderful dishes. Someone put some real time and effort into this publication as there were full color pictures of the dish and of the person who submitted it. Not all of it was what you would call local home town cooking either. There were some fancy deserts that would make the chef at the Hilton in New York City salivate. Of course there were local dishes too. There was your run of the mill pot roast with carrots and potatoes and your egg salad sandwich. There was an oriental stir fry with some spices that I had never heard of. There was a buffalo meatloaf that looked quite interesting. Now that’s one you would expect to see in a South Dakota cookbook. There are actually people there that raise buffalo much like farmers raise cattle for the food market. It is becoming more and more popular and can actually be found on the grocery store shelves nation wide now.
