Doughnuts Extraodinaire!

A friend posted her family recipe for doughnuts. I haven't tried them, but I'm inclined to believe they would be really, really good!
Her blog is carolynnsrecipebox.blogspot.com
Here is the doughnut recipe.

Once a Month Cooking

A couple of friends and I have decided to do OAMC (Once a Month Cooking) for the summer. That means one or two days or hard work and the rest of the month with not much to do but put the meals in the slow-cooker or on the barbeque. I found a software that helps with this tremendously. It comes with 150 recipes. You can choose what meals or side dishes you want to include for that month. You also can add your own recipes and decide how many batches you want to do. It will even print out labels and shopping lists. The website is 30 Meals in a Day.
If you already do OAMC or are looking to start, this website will help.
