I'll have to try that!

I can bake cornbread...that's about the extent of my talents.

Do you use real ground coffee or powdered instant coffee?

The idea of chewing coffee grounds and swallowing them is a bit icky.

Hrrm...I remember making a half decent cheesecake once by improvising a recipe from the box of philedelphia carton.

I once made a good lime zest shortbread, but I lost the recipe. It was a Martha recipe pre-jail!

I bought a small bottle of real key lime juice ($2.49) at Fairways grocery that you can use to make a key lime pie...

Graham cracker crumb pie shell or what?

I have to get the rest of the recipe.

Aw, Phanty, you're reading my thread. How sweet.

I'll put you to work in the kitchen one day, but only if you're willing.

Key limes are the cutest looking things.
They're so tiny.

Meyer limes are yummy, too.

In Hawaii we have these big sweet, tangy Tahitian limes that I love with pink flesh.

Sometimes the really good-tasting Meyer limes in the bags you can get at the market have pink flesh and those are the yummiest.

Some limes are bitter and I chuck those out. Updated On: 10/26/06 at 11:36 PM

In Southern France in Grasse and Nice they scent the bread with orange water so it smells like oranges but has no orange taste.

My mommy made some yummy mouse stuff the other day. And my buddy at school brought some tasty brownies on one of our "fat kid fridays"

The idea of chewing coffee grounds and swallowing them is a bit icky.

I had always thought that, but a friend of mine concocted a steak rub out of espresso-ground coffee and other seasonings that was truly incredible. If you grind the coffee fine enough, it's no more intrusive than any other seasoning.

nom~ I use Gevalia brand "creme brule" which has a carmel flare.
If you stick with gourmet brands they are finely ground....or you can always pulverize anything grainy into powder with a processor. (I beat the hell out of Splenda into powdered sugar for sugar free dishes).
