¼ cup dried lavender buds 6 ¾ cup hot water ½ cup honey 1 cup lemon juice ½ pound dry ice

Steep the lavender buds in the water for at least 10 minutes. Strain out and discard the buds. Stir in the honey to dissolve while the water is still warm. Stir in the lemon juice. Add any more water if necessary to make 2 quarts. Add the dry ice. Serve after allowing to carbonate for about 15 minutes, or to store, wait for all the dry ice to dissolve, then store in an airtight container in the fridge.

kale oil salt pepper

Preheat the oven to 375° F.

Wash the kale. Cut off the stems and cut the ribs out of the leaves. Cut the leaves into wide strips.

Pour some oil onto a baking sheet (a few tablespoons should suffice, although it depends on how much kale you have). Put the kale strips on the baking sheet, spreading them around and coating them with the oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Try to have them spread out evenly and not overlapping a lot.

Bake for 3-8 minutes, until they are light and crispy. The time on this varies depending on how much you've made, so just check it after a few minutes.

4 cups flour 2 cups warm water 1 Tbsp salt 2 tsp yeast ¼ cup honey

In a large mixing bowl, dissolve 2 tsp honey in the water. Stir in the yeast. When it is starting to foam, add 3 cups of flour, one cup at a time, mixing completely after each addition. On the third cup, add in the salt as well. Dump the fourth cup of flour onto the clean counter, then dump the dough on the flour and knead it. You may not need to knead in all of the flour, just until the dough is no longer sticky clumps. Knead the dough until it is smooth and stretchy. Coat the inside of the bowl with oil, coat the outside of the dough with oil, put it in the bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise for 30 minutes or until doubled.

Roll out the dough into a large rectangle between ½” and ¾” thick. Drop globs of honey randomly onto the dough. Don't spread it in an even layer. Roll up the dough into a log and form into a loaf. Grease the inside of the bread pan and put in the dough. Cut a slash along the top of the loaf. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for another 30 minutes.

Put the bread pan in the oven, then set the temperature for 350° F. Bake for 40-50 minutes until the top is a deep golden brown & the loaf sounds hollow when you tap the bottom.

Preheat oven to 350° F.

Have corn on the cob that is still inside the husk. Put it in the oven, straight on the oven rack, and cook for 30 minutes.

It comes out very sweet, tender and flavorful, a different taste than when the corn is boiled. Leaving the husk on while it's roasting traps in the moisture.

A classic and old-fashioned frosting that's thick and marshmallowy.

½ cup sugar ¼ cup corn syrup 2 Tbsp water 2 egg whites 1 tsp vanilla

Mix sugar, corn syrup and water in a saucepan. Cover, heat to a rolling boil over medium heat. Uncover and keep boiling rapidly until it reaches 242 on a candy thermometer, or it forms a firm ball which holds its shape until pressed when dropped in cold water.

As mixture boils, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Pour the hot syrup very slowly in a thin stream into the egg whites, beating constantly on medium speed. Add vanilla, beat on high speed until stiff peaks form. Variations

Cherry Nut: Stir in ¼ cup candied cherries and ½ cup chopped nuts.

Chocolate Revel: Stir in ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips or 1 ounce of baking chocolate, coarsely grated.

Cocoa: sift ¼ cup cocoa over finished frosting and fold in.

Fruity: Use any fruit juice instead of water.

Honey: Use honey instead of corn syrup.

Lemon: Substitute 1 Tbsp lemon juice for the vanilla and beat in ¼ tsp lemon zest.

Maple Pecan: Stir ¼ tsp maple flavoring and ½ cup chopped pecans into Satiny Beige frosting (below).

Peppermint: stir in 1/3 cup coarsely crushed peppermint candy, or ½ tsp peppermint extract.

Pineapple: Substitute 1 tsp lemon vest for the vanilla, and stir in 1 can (8 ounces) of crushed pineapple, drained.

Pink Mountain: Use maraschino cherry juice instead of water.

Raisin Nut: Stir in ¼ cup chopped raisins and ¼ cup finely chopped nuts.

Satiny Beige: Use packed brown sugar instead of of white sugar and use ½ tsp vanilla instead of 1 tsp

This recipe is from my grandmother, and I believe it's the original cookie recipe that used to come written on the Special K boxes.

1 cup corn syrup 1 cup sugar 1 cup peanut butter 6 cups Special K cereal

Put your cereal in a large bowl, and lay out a large sheet of waxed paper.

Bring corn syrup and sugar to a boil until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and mix in peanut butter.

Pour over cereal and mix well. Spoon cereal into cookies on wax paper and cool.

Substitute whatever cereal you like.

2 eggs ½ cup applesauce 1 ¾ cup flour 2 tsp baking powder ¼ tsp salt ¾ cup milk or nut milk ½ cup honey

I have no idea if they are actually Canadian; that's just what they're called.

1 cup dark molasses ¼ cup packed brown sugar 1 tsp vinegar 2 1/3 cups flour 2 Tbsp fresh grated ginger root 2 tsp baking soda 1 egg ½ tsp salt

Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease cookie sheets.

In a large bowl, stir together the molasses, brown sugar, vinegar, and egg.

In another bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, ginger and salt, then add to molasses mixture. Mix until well blended.

The dough is very sticky, so keep your hands wet with water to roll the dough into little balls.

Place balls on cookie sheets, about 2 inches apart. They spread a lot while baking. Bake until edges are golden, about 8-11 minutes. They should be kind of gooey still but noticeably cooked. Let cool on pans for 5 minutes before removing, they use this time to set/finish cooking.
