Edible Apple Swan
Hi Attosa, I totally love your swan apple. To get my hubby to eat apples, instead of just drinking apple juice, Ive always cut them up into pieces and stuck each one with those different colored fringed toothpicks to make the pieces look even more desirable...
Edible Apple Swan
Wow, that is a GREAT idea! Yes, spread some peanut butter on a small plate, and maybe nuked a tad to melt it out a bit, then the swan on top. I really like that, yes, a swipe in the peanut butter with the apple, yummy! Thanks! :)
Edible Apple Swan
Attosa, I didnt go all the way and make the swan yet out of the apples, but we did try apple slices (dipped in peanut butter) as youd suggested, and wed had never had that before - and now....its going to be something we eat a whole lot more often. My goodness...
Edible Apple Swan
Hi Attosa, Id never even heard of it, isnt that something. And yes, the apple slices swiped in peanut butter...was shockingly delicious. I mean I thought oh yes, that sounds really good when you posted it, but...it tastes EVEN BETTER than imagined. We love...
Edible Apple Swan
Attosa, What tip do you have for nectarines? hehehe Im playing (sort of) but heck, without you mentioning the peanut butter on apples, we still wouldnt know of it, and what a loss that would be because that was extraordinarily delicious.
Edible Apple Swan
Oh yes! Now I can sort of taste that in my mind thinking of the flavors, but Im sure its even better tasting it in my mouth! :) And I do understand about the salt how thats needed for the to bring out the sweet, but Im glad you said to use that for the nectarines...
Wicked Skies
I said WOW too when I saw your photo here. Thats super scary. I hope all is well where you are.
Vegan Italian Stir-Fry
Attosa, yes, it sure does now that I think about that, the ratatouilleness hehehe - yep, very similar basically just on top of pasta. The really nice thing about this too is ANY veggie can be stir fried, then put on pasta with a light tomato sauce, but eggplant...
E-Receipts instead of Paper
That sure is a great tip. Ive had the same problem, old receipts that Ive kept, some of them are totally blank, as though they had disappearing ink on them and theyre of no use now. Thanks for reinforcing the importance of this issue.
Pull-Apart Pineapple
Attosa, I never ever thought or dreamed a pineapple had segments that could be removed. Are you zig-zagging the entire outside of the pineapple with the paring knife? Im baffled. Or are the segments (in place already inside of it) after the top is removed? Thanks...
Pull-Apart Pineapple
Thanks Attosa :) Im glad you let me know that about just the top and rolling. Yes, I understand how that would help. Im SO glad you told me about this, because who ever knew that? haha :) Maybe I just didnt, but Im sure glad I do now! :) Thank you again! :)

Leek and Walnut Pesto
Hi Jess, Thank you for letting me know about leeks and their flavor. Yes, I wondered about that and I love green onions. Thanks for that recipe too, the leek soup. I have heard of leek soup, just never have tried that either. How oddball of me, hehe Well, its...
Leek and Walnut Pesto
Oh yes, Vichyssoise soup. That rings a bell. :) Thank you for letting me know more about leeks, that will definitely help. Thats interesting about you and Brussel sprouts, I know so many that dont care for them, but I sure do love those too. :)
