Cook the Book: 'Baking, From My Home to Yours'

i love any cookie with oatmeal in it. and in terms of commercially processed cookies i can never eat less than five of those albertson's brand maple cookies in one sitting.

Cook the Book: 'The Perfect Scoop'

I can't decide between root beer floats or root beer slurpees.

Cook the Book: 'What's a Cook To Do?' Giveaway

Any of the knife tips (i.e. how not to slice yourself...as often) that I've learned are definitely my favorites. The "finger curl" while slicing has to be the best.

Cook the Book: 'Happy in the Kitchen' Giveaway

cooking with my step dad makes me the happiest. we work well together and have a lot of fun...and when we don't want anyone else in the kitchen he's the one who kicks them out so i don't look like the bad guy!

Question of the Day: Do you have food allergies?

pineapple, raw celery and milk products. i guess my body decided themes are for losers when it was choosing allergies.

Cook the Book: 'The Silver Palate Cookbook, 25th Anniversary Edition'

The Joy of Cooking from the '70's. I loved reading the recipies for things like raccoon and squirrel, but the most used recipe was for those delicious brownies.

That is so so cool.

Cookbook Giveaway: 'Super Natural Cooking'

Oats in all their filling, fiber-y delicious glory. Oatmeal, oat bread, oatmeal cookies (ok so cookies aren't "healthy," but one can always dream). Also high on my list: cauliflower and spinach.

Question of the Day: Lucky Foods ...

Half an hour before a test I eat one piece of toast and have a small cup of coffee. I didn't think it was a big deal until once I forgot to do it and it made me nervous during the entire test...

Peanut Butter and Jelly: A Serious Eats Special Report

Peter Pan PB was recently recalled because of the whole salmonella issue with it. ...which was really too bad because that was the only kind they carried in my college cafeteria. My main source of nutrition is pb&j and we didn't have the pb part for nearly two weeks!

I miss Fluffernutters! It was a college staple of mine.

Crunchy PB (preferably all-natural with no hydrogenated oils), sliced banana and honey between slices of seven-grain or whole wheat bread.
Has anyone ever tried/made/know where to purchase peanut butter-banana ice cream?

Deep-fried, y'all.

Peanut butter and butter is good.

Peanut butter and honey is best with a sprinkle of wheat germ, especially when toasted in a skillet like grilled cheese.

Peanut butter and cream cheese is good too.

Peanut butter and Nutella...oooohhhh...

Even with "scientific ratios", we all have our favorite ways of doing PBJ! To toast or not to toast? ... depends on my mood. Rye bread is my favorite with apricot preserves. Ooohhhh! I had forgotten all about using marshmallow fluff. Yum. I never understood the use of butter with peanut butter. For those of you who did, or still do, eat PB accompanied by butter, I hope there is a cardiologist in your family!

I'm shocked no one has mentioned peanut butter and fluff! What could be better than cheap-o wonder bread, crunchy Skippy, and an equally thick layer of marshmallow fluff? My favorite!

Peanut Butter and Jelly: A Serious Eats Special Report

I do not like PB&J or J or PB or bread with anything but butter (if it is toasted otherwise plain). The combination of textures and flavors just grosses me out...
I also don't like cake and ice cream together.

sunflower seed butter for me!

Peanut Butter and Jelly: A Serious Eats Special Report

Personally, I could never do the toasting...all around texture should be mushy (no crunchy PB), so that I could eat it if I had just lost my two front baby teeth.
And I'll take mine with the crusts cut off, please.
