    If donuts aren't deep-fried, they're just round little cakes. Enough with the "baked donuts". That's CAKE. In a different shape. There. I said it.

      When do I have to refrigerate baked goods that contain cream cheese? I see stuff that has cream cheese in it out in room temp all the time, but it seems to me it should be chilled.

          There was a time when almost every episode was available on YouTube. I'm guessing Food Network's lawyers have shut that down by now.

              I swore I wasn't going to freeze apples this year, but.... my mom mentioned maybe an apple tart or two might be nice for Thanksgiving. And since there's good apples available right now (at least 4 orchards at the market) and there won't be at Thanksgiving, really, I had no choice, right? At least I didn't buy a bushel. There are so many kinds to choose from. I got Cortland and Secor (??? not Secord had never heard of them before, but they're apparently tart). What do people put in their pies, etc? I don't like baked apples, so I have no idea what people prefer, but it seems a mix of sweet and tart would be ideal to cover the bases.

              and I made these brownies yesterday. Very good, but not sure if they're better than these, which are my go-to for plain brownies.

              btw, am I the only one that hates Honeycrisp? People get so effing excited about those and I think they're disgusting.

                Nope, I don't like them either.

                  Granny smith is OK for pie but my all time favorite in pie is Macoun. YUM!! I can't eat apples raw- allergy- but love them cooked.

                    I like them well enough, but prefer some other apples. As for the new hybrids that have been put out there, like Honeycrisp, I prefer the SweeTango.

                      Love it. Especially this passage:
                      Cutting back on refined carbohydrates, booze, and calories is smart; subsequently attributing your improved health to the elimination of wheat gluten from your diet is dumb. If adopting a no-throwing-yourself-off-of-tall-precipices lifestyle improves your health, it's because colliding with the earth at a high velocity is bad for you—not because you have a congenital sensitivity to wind.

The one woman gets nauseous, my hockey buddy looks like he's on the verge of going paraphylactic (sp?) shock, and my s-i-l gets pretty ill but I don't know if she's going full reversal or not.

                        While I've not gone gluten free, I have seriously reduced all of my refined sugars intake, reducing the amount of wheat, standard sugar, and HFCS. The result? I've dropped a ton of weight, but it's becuase those things happen to be present in high calorie foods, not the absence of gluten itself.

                          A lengthy reflection about our relationship with food and cooking and what it tells us about ourselves, in this week's New Yorker.

                          Most of the energy that we put into our thinking about food, I realized, isn’t about food; it’s about anxiety. Food makes us anxious. The infinite range of choices and possible self-expressions means that there are so many ways to go wrong. You can make people ill, and you can make yourself look absurd. People feel judged by their food choices, and they are right to feel that, because they are.

                            Corn cookies from the Goddess of All that is Good, Christina Tosi. Easy to make. I really like the texture of these, a little chewy, but still crunchy, and a little salty, but sweet. Not overwhelmingly corn-y. The process is a lot like her Blueberry and Cream cookies (with the long creaming time), which are also excellent.

                              A story about the last ten years' of research about food and health: it turns out that fat intake isn't really so bad for you after all.

                              The most hopeful path lies in a different direction: An enormous trove of research over the past decade has shown that a low-carbohydrate regime consistently outperforms any other diet in improving health. Diabetics, for instance, can most effectively stabilize their blood glucose on a low-carb diet; heart-disease victims are able to raise their “good” HDL cholesterol while lowering their triglycerides. And at least two-dozen well-controlled diet trials, involving thousands of subjects, have shown that limiting carbohydrates leads to greater weight loss than does cutting fat.
                              That story in turn links to a story in The New England Journal of Medicine that provides further details.

                                That's what I've been doing since February this year, in addition to exercise and keeping my calories in check; I'm down 110lbs.
