Thanks for reminding me about this site. I am going to make a strawberry basil balsamic pie for a dinner party on Friday, and SK's strawberry rhubarb pie recipe will be a good starting point. The balsamic syrup will provide the tanginess that the rhubarb provided.

Smitten Kitchen on chocolate cake
Making a cake for a chocolate fanatic? You can pretty much skip the frosting, as nothing will make their eyes roll back in their head more than a simple ganache, made simply by melting some bittersweet chocolate with a glug heavy cream. Pour it over the cake and watch it dribble. Try and fail not to lick the bowl

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, now I have a cooking question. I guess I'm going to make chili with the ground beef I currently have defrosting, but I don't have any pink beans, which I would normally put in chili. I do have black and white beans. Which to use? I would make something different, but I have pretty much no ingredients in the house.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Black beans.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
How many cookies does it make. My chocolate chip cookie recipe calls for two cups of sugar, but makes close to 5 dozen cookies.
I have no idea how many it's supposed to make, since I like 'em big. But in terms of proportion to the other recipes, that's more sugar than flour (2: 1.5). There are also 3 cups of oatmeal.
Given what last week's cookies tasted like I'd have had to throw out the real variety.
