Discoveries December 4, 2007

I just discovered this site, Joy of Baking. The link is there in my Blogroll.

So far, I’ve tried to bake Chunky Chocolate Chip Cookies. It’s a hit here at home, especially with my brother. I’ve also tried “baking” pizza dough from scratch. I want to bake a lot of stuff! And I think I’ll utilize this site soon. I’ll study our oven when we transfer to the new house; there’s more counter space there.

These recipes are on the top of my “bake these ASAP” list:

• Chocolate Peanut Squares
• Cream Cheese Brownies
• Banana Muffins

Another site (which is also in my Blogroll) that I used to frequent and just re-discovered is Blogthings. It has these random tests that you can take and post to your blog or personal site or I think even in Friendster. Some of the tests/quizzes they have are:

• What carnival ride are you?
• What’s your Native American name?
• What’s your ideal marriage proposal?

These are just a few but there are hundreds, maybe even thousands of tests available. I’m sure you’ll see them here soon.
