Sourdough.

Chili, tacos, stew, pot roast, sandwiches. I haven't tried it in a dessert yet though!

I made these last night and also thought it was too thin when it was baking, but it did puff up and came out just fine. It was hard to get the dough all the way to the edges of the 9x13. I was convinced that the cookies wouldn't come out well because the dough seemed so weird, but they were actually quite good! Very minty.

@nerditry - I always make a ton of cookies for people (usually gingerbread and Mexican wedding cookies), but last year I made an almond citrus liqueur for my dad (similar to a limoncello). I found the recipe in a magazine, otherwise I would post a link here. It was really easy, but I think it's something you need to start around Thanksgiving.

I am quite partial to my peanut butter chocolate chip cookies. I need a cookie cookbook so I can expand my horizons!

LOVE: Mini Reese's cups, candy corn, Smarties, pretty much any mini chocolate candy bar (Twix, Snickers, Butterfingers, Hershey's, etc...), Blow Pops (and like Mini Eggs said above, NOT the grape ones), Jolly Ranchers.

I actually like the mini Reese's cups because there is less peanut butter. Don't get me wrong, I love peanut butter - I just think the Reese's peanut butter is not great, so I need about equal amounts of PB and chocolate.

Hate: NECCO WAFERS!!! What in the hell is wrong with these things? I thing Serious Eats needs to do an investigation into this disgusting conspiracy. I actually drove past the Necco Wafers factory last summer and cursed its very existence.

Also, circus peanuts... I've never eaten one, because they look horrible and inedible. Based on the other comments here, I now know I made the right life choice.

I don't like anything banana, grape, or root beer flavored. And I'm not overly fond of Reese's Pieces for some reason.

My favorite is the incredulous way he says "FROZEN peas???" My husband and I still say that to each other whenever the subject of peas comes up.

Well, I'd never pass up an invite to a party at Rick's house... but I'd have to say Anthony Bourdain. I was just telling my husband last night how much I would love to meet him!

Succulent sauce drips
Slowly down my happy face.
Why did I wear white?

Please don't beat yourself up! Only a robot could resist the spicy soppressata pizza from Motorino.

The Milky Way shirt is very cool!

Salted! I am one of those people who is experiencing a salt renaissance right now - I never cared too much about salting my food until about a year ago. Sweet and salty is the way to go! I'm very liberal and moderately adventurous in my eating habits.

Very cool! Love the freckles on Kate! I made a Lost cake for the premiere of the third season, and am thinking of doing something special (and delicious) for the final episode.

Rectangle. However, I cut it so one half is substantially larger than the other. I eat the small portion first, then am ridiculously excited to have the large part left. I feel like I am getting an extra big sandwich, and though it is silly, it delights me every time!
