I don't care for olives themselves, but use their oil all the time!

I made two of these cakes for a camping trip last year and underbaked the cakes just a bit so that when I warmed them up to frost them, they didn't over cook. We were in the Rocky Mountains, so I didn't want to mess with high-altitude baking. The cakes came out great and everyone finished off both pans. Thinking I may need to make this again soon!

I use the recipe at King Arthur Flour for the most part. Exclude the spices and add vanilla for vanilla donuts, etc. Hope to try out their coconut doughnut recipe soon. Sorry, haven't seen a pumpkin doughnut recipe.

This is so hard, narrowing down to just one! The first time I had creme brulee at the Mansion on Turtle Creek in Dallas, I was smitten!

So many to choose from... for a no-cook snack, mini-Reese's cups! If I'm baking, brownie bites or chocolate chip cookie dough. By the spoon it's a small bite, right?!

Fun stuff! There are some good baked donut recipes at King Arthur Flour, too.

Cold chocolate cake with chocolate butter cream frosting. But really, any kind of cake - yum!

There's a Sonoran Hot Dog stand near my office here in Tucson. Sounds like a great lunch for today!

Vail, AZ - just south of Tucson, but should be moving back to the Dallas-Fort Worth area later this year.

I love It's Its and having not lived in the Bay Area for the last 17 years, whenever we get back, I always have at least one!

Oh my, just about anything sans fruit! Chocolate/chocolate, vanilla/chocolate, chocolate/almond, caramel... that's more than two.

I made a triple-berry pie and entered it in the state fair a few years ago. I don't care for berries, so I hadn't tested it myself. Hubby tried it when I brought it home and declared it the tartest, sourest berry pie he'd ever eaten. But he kept going back for more, saying it was like a car wreck, he just couldn't stay away from it.

My favorite with the Lipton dip is BBQ potato chips - YUM!
