Garlic HummusSome recipes call for too much tahini. Others try too hard and call for red bell peppers or sun-dried tomatoes.

Cucumber Salad with White VinegarOld fashioned recipe my mother-in-law used to make. She was hard pressed to give me exact amounts.

Autumn Pumpkin-Java MilkshakeHere's a less sweet version from the traditional milkshake. You combine fresh coffee, coffee ice cream, pumpkin and pow, instant afternoon pick-me up. If you wish to turn this into a adult beverage, add Kahlua pumpkin spice or pumpkin pie cream liquor. For the pint sized ghoul's and goblin's, use decaf coffee and no spirits. |
