Nickshalfpint: You mean you don't want my mother's chicken soup recipe? I was willing to share! I make chicken soup nowadays but it does NOT have anything gross in it...no hearts, gizzards, livers, necks and especially feet. And I...

My mother made chicken soup - probably twice a month. She bought the chicken from a nearby chicken farmer so she'd come home with the entire chicken, including the FEET! It was gross enough seeing them cooking in pot but eating those...

I've used the WASC recipe for a lemon cake which turned out so tasty and moist (and does hold up well) I substituted the white cake mix with lemon, added three whole eggs instead of egg whites and substituted the almond flavoring with...

I have First Impression alphabet molds and I hate them! What a waste of $$ I can't figure out for the life of me how to use them successfully. The cavities are so thin that anything I try using (fondant, RI, chocolate) just breaks...
