What to do with zestless lemons?

I don't even bother juicing them first. I vacuum seal whole lemons (zestless would work just fine too) and put them in the freezer. Whenever I need juice, I just take one out, zap in the microwave a few seconds and squeeze out the juice (or remove the zest). Unless you need lovely slices for water or something, they are just fine.

Sweet Hacks: 10-Minute No-Bake Lime Cracker Pie

This is obscenely good. I made it for a cookout at my sister's this weekend and everyone loved it! I've been eating the leftovers directly from the dish and will polish it off tonight. The fact that it's so easy to put together makes it even more delicious!

What one food mag should I get?

I really like Cooks Illustrated and their companion mag Cooks Country. Great recipes and the articles are fascinating.

Now, I know I'm going to get a lot of flak for this, but I just picked up the latest issue of Taste of Home and really enjoyed the new format. Yes, they have recipes with canned soup and biscuits in a tube, but I thought it was a vast improvement over their prior look.

My suggestion, go to your local library and check out some of the above mentioned magazines and find out what YOU like best.

Domino's Launches Line of Bread Bowl Pastas

People, people, people!! SOMEONE is eating this stuff! Apparently, ALOT of someones, or the company would cease to exist. I guess it's just not folks who follow this site. And why is it ok to pair spaghetti with garlic bread? Is it not the same thing?

Spousal Cooking: Am I a bad person?

Just ask her!! No matter how long you have been married, no one is a mind reader. Maybe she thinks nothing is wrong. Key to a long and happy marriage: COMMUNICATION!!!

We have been married very happily for 25 years and I don't work full time, so I do most everything around the house. I think that's fair as hubby works full time (and sometimes evenings and weekends too!) However, my husband burns himself making toast, so it's probably for the best anyways! Besides, I enjoy cooking and REALLY REALLY love not working in an office anymore.

How to Make a Choco Taco

Luckily, my local Skyline Chili has a Good Humor freezer with Choco Tacos!! Chili and ice cream, what could be better!?!?!
I like the idea of using books as molds. You get a larger bottom so they are easier to fill and stand on their own. However, I would first wrap the book in non-stick foil first. Easier to remove and way more sanitary!!
Thanks for sharing.

Biscuit Basics

I've always wondered: is it absolutely necessary to cut out round biscuits with a cutter? Could you not obtain the same results just cutting the dough into squares? That way you don't waste any dough or get those few tough biscuits because of the re-rolled scraps. Thanks!

Dinner Tonight: Blue Smoke’s Iceberg Wedges with Roquefort Dressing

Yeah, we all know iceberg lettuce has absolutely no nutritional value. That's not the point. It's the perfect foil for that unctous, yummy, gooey, wonderful blue cheese dressing. And tho this Roquefort recipe sounds very good, I would still sprinkle on those bacon bits.

Oil and Vinegar Coleslaw

I make one called Carolina Cole Slaw. Very fast and easy. You can use whatever vegetation you like. If I'm lazy, I'll just used the bagged cole slaw mix. Bonus: this stuff is GREAT on grilled hot dogs!!

3 lbs shredded cabbage
1 red pepper, minced
1 medium red onion, minced
Dressing:
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon celery seed
1 cup cider vinegar

Combine all dressing ingredients in small sauce pan. Stir over medium heat until it just comes to a boil, and all the sugar has dissolved. Pour over cabbage mixture. Refrigerate overnight before serving.
