nobleheart: rofl

nobleheart: D'oh!

harley: I tried your recipes,but it is hard to butter the tree with it.and it is hard to chew.

Um, well, its kind of a download site, mininova.

yes.. if there is a link for it.. I would be interested as well.. :)

harley: really. i would like to see the link for it. is it a free download? i go to one site that has cookbooks but it costs and i just get the free recipes was called north carolina cooking.com but a guy named willie now owns all of it plus his Home of the Soul Food Cookbook...
http://Chitterlings.com/cookbook.html

Brownies in a Jar see if this works.. should take you to the original posts..

Scarlet mentioned jars last year, putting in packets of the right ingredients and put the instructions on the outside. I really liked the idea, especially for kids, or adults who don't normally do a lot of baking. It takes out the hard work of them looking up a recipe, buying ingredients, weighing out etc... this will give them an interest in cooking, and they have a recipe they can keep and use over and over.
This e-book I got has hundreds of ideas for recipies that don't have too many ingredients so it all fits nicely in a jar. You could even print out the instructions to put on the jar!

harley: good i liked the ideas of the 'jars' of homemade things especially now with the cost in gas,elect. and in the stores but it means more to me to recieve 'homemade' and maybe others will like it too.

PIZZA PARTY GIFT BASKET On a pizza stone or board, arrange a variety of delicious domestic cheeses such as Parmesan, mozzarella and feta. Add a pizza cutter, homemade pizza sauce

Whoops, there are 475 ideas for gift baskets! I don't think I should post all those! If anyone wants all 475, or more Christmas recipies, christmas colouring sheets, gift jars or holiday candy I'll be happy to send it if you message me with your email address.
For now, heres 2 of the gist baskets ideas...


BARBEQUE LOVER’S GIFT BASKET

use an apron with pockets for a "basket". Fill the apron pockets with: marinade recipes ~BBQ sauce ~BBQ tools ~ packages of meat tenderizer ~ skewers ~ gift certificate for the local butcher


Beginner Cook Gift Basket

Use a Dish Drainer for the "Basket" and fill with your choice of the following items: Wire Whisk Rubber Spatula Set Wooden Spoon Set Ladle Slotted Spoon Long Fork Tongs Paring Knife Slicing Knife Vegetable Peeler Package of Dishcloths Two Dish Towels Two Potholders Two Oven Mitts Placemats Can Opener Kitchen Scissors Corkscrew Small cutting board Large Mixing Bowl Medium Mixing Bowl Cheese Grater Measuring Cups Measuring spoons Small Kitchen Scales Scrubbing Pads Glass Mop Rubber Gloves Salt & Pepper Set Canister Set Wrap all items and tie with ribbons. Place smaller items in the "silverware compartment" of the dish drainer. Wrap the whole thing up in a tablecloth and gather at the top and tie with a big bow. You may choose to wrap it in cellophane instead if unsure of color preferences.

amandalove: me too, I'm always on the lookout for more Christmas recipies and ideas. These I downloaded from a christmas e-book. Theres quite a few more but I didn't want to post too many in one go! Its just a shame theres no credits to whoever invented these.
There was also a lot of ideas for Chistmas baskets like Scarlets speciality! I don't know if she knows of all the ones in this book, I'll post them and see if they're of use to anyone.

amandalove: i was referring to the christmas tree spread but looking at the other recipes they are great thanks i am getting in the mood for christmas.....as i sing walking towards my kitchen...

harley: this is soo good had it at a function but never had the recipe thank you.

I liked them because they're simple. (The first person to say "like you?" will get a custard pie face LOL!!!)

harley: Lots of kool recipes, Thanks harls!!!
