What Are Your Homemade Doughnut Secrets?
Although not exactly home-made, my mom would buy a loaf of frozen bread dough from the grocery store, let it sit out a day to de thaw and rise, then cut out donut shapes and fry them up. Very easy, and with a little cinnamon sugar, very awesome results.

I'm feeling out of sorts... What exactly is tapas?

My most memorable tapas experience was at Lucques in West Los Angeles, California.

With my sister at a restraunt in a neighboring suburb. The waiter was wearing a wedding ring, overweight, bald, and missing teeth, but insisted on flirting relentlessly with us anyway. He actually said "I love to tapas". It was totally inappropriate but hysterical.

Sadly, my best tapas experience was from the view of my couch into the TV and the Travel Channel. Seems like it was Samantha Brown tasting the fares in Spain. Since then, I have so wanted to do the same. Some day...

My only authentic tapas experience in Spain was in high school - my h.s. Spanish class went to Andalucia region for a week. All the restaurants and foodstuff was arranged by our teachers, so I can't comment on what exactly we ate and where we ate it...but my oh my was it delicious! I had never had food like that before the trip.

I wandered into a laundromat in Figures, Spain with a backpack full of dirty clothes, noticed a small bar in back and proceeded to do laundry, drink wine and eat snacks with a few locals at noon on a weekday many years ago.

I have never ever had one. I love to cook and would love to give this book a good going over.

Brioche dough is THE BEST to use for yeast doughnuts. Since I have a bread maker, I let it mix up the dough for me. You can cut them up into squares and make them like beignets, or you can go the "round" route and cut them into the doughnut shape. Let them rise and fry! Yum-may!

I really don't have any either :(

Going to a tapas bar in Barcelona with my dad and getting to drink a beer with him for the first time, it was such a fun grown up feeling. I remember eating tons of grilled octopus (like 3 plates of them)

It would either have to be the time I had lentejas trufadas (with a gorgeous poached egg on top) at Boqueria, or the first time the guy I was dating made me the most perfect patatas bravas. Both moments have made me into a tapas fiend.

The nuns' recipe my grandma got from the convent. Seriously - we make it every Xmas, and they're awesome.

You can also try using a pate au choux dough instead and fry that.

My most memorable tapas experience was when I said I would make 24 tapas in one evening, by myself. Not all of them were traditional tapas but there were a lot of tapas inspired tapas flying around.
See for yourself:
