Recipes

A plate of seafood tacos.

Seafood "Alley" TacosEver price a lobster or shrimp taco? Some places charge $8.99 for a two taco shrimp plate or $9.99 for a two taco lobster plate. I made these homemade seafood tacos for less than $.50 per taco. I call them "Alley" tacos because they are cheaper than a street taco!

 

A loaf of ABC bread.

ABC BreadA very moist bread with a syrupy sweet nut topping to die for! ABC stands for apple, banana and chocolate/caramel.

 

A stack of pancakes with syrup and fruit on the top.

Velvety Peanut Butter PancakesIf you are a peanut butter fan like I am, you will love these pancakes. They are silky smooth have just the right amount of peanuty goodness. They are rich, as well, so a little goes a long way. Any topping or syrup goes great with these. I like fruit and a touch of maple!

Repairing a Cracked Porcelain DollMy doll is porcelain, and she has red curly hair. She fell of a stool the other day while I was moving her. She did not break, but her face and ear is cracked all the way through. I've read articles about using glue, but i'm not sure how to repair her because I can't glue it from the inside. Is there someplace I can send her to get her fixed, or is there someway I can do it myself?
