Anonymous asked: You have a bowl of leftover chocolate sauce from a rendez-vous with some profiteroles. You wonder what else you could do with it, besides eat it with a spoon whilst watching Golden Girls.

myturtlespeedy asked: 'Sifting' flour. That's bull shit right? If I see that in a cook book I don't need to do that do I? It's like a big joke that experienced cooks put into books to see if they can get some chumps to do it. I didn't buy this flour back in the 1800's, there aren't any boll weevils hiding in there.

suitwetter asked: Your father's unrepentant love for Ohio lemon pie is confusing you. You fear the rinds. Online recipies look malevolent. All you're certain of is your ability to whip up a sassy meringue; any recommendations for the filling?

thewannabegourmande asked: You're at a crossroads in your culinary career. In the eyes of your peers you are soaring, yet your very stubborn grandmother refuses to let you make anything but a (guh) caesar salad for Thanksgiving. In desperation, you turn to the only other blogger/butter-lover that just might have that one recipe to help put grandma in her place, and prove that you are going to be the new Kitchen Queen...

melissa-chan asked: It's most unfortunate, but as a first-year in university, you are without a kitchen. Which means no baking. Unless you nag upperclassmen to use their apartments. Which would be plausible any other weekend. Thanksgiving by yourself is lonely, so you turn to your favorite baker for advice. Tips/recipes for no-bake pies?

You Want An Award. →
You’d like to win something for once in your life—something other than a pie eating contest (though to be honest, that gold plastic pie trophy is pretty sweet). You’ve decided that you want a Village Voice Web Award.
Why do you want one?
Because you baked the ever-lovin’ crap outta this year.
What other tumblr went through eight roommates due to baking (one was replaced...
