Make Your Own Burger Buns

When it comes to burgers there are endless options to please everyone’s tastebuds….from traditional meat burgers to bean burgers…it’s hard to find someone who doesn’t like a burger. When it comes to making burgers, I (Mary) always try to find good bakery buns. I think that hamburger buns can be the difference between a good burger and an okay burger. In the summer months I was able to buy great bakery buns from a local food store. However, now that summer is over and I am back at school, I am having a difficult time finding good burger buns.

Sprinkle the yeast over the warm water and let it sit for 5 minutes until the yeast is dissolved. After 5 minutes stir if the yeast hasn't dissolved completely. The yeast should begin to foam, which indicates that it is still active and alive. 2 Make and knead the pizza dough: Using the mixing paddle attachment, mix in the flour, salt, sugar, and olive oil on low speed for a minute. Knead the pizza dough on low to medium speed using the dough hook until the dough is smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. If you don't have a mixer, you can mix the ingredients together and knead them by hand. If the dough seems a little too wet, sprinkle it with a little more flour. 3 Put dough in warm place to rise: Spread a thin layer of olive oil over the inside of a large bowl.

Pizza from Scratch Recipe. Lighter Sesame Chicken. Lighter Sesame Chicken satisfies my craving for Chinese take-out, without all the calories that usually come along with it. Well hello there, how was your weekend? :) Besides meeting some friends for an impromptu wild Friday night out (oy,) finally watching The Vow on Saturday afternoon (omg what a horribly sad movie, right?!) And witnessing the Hawkeyes get spanked (SPANKED) later that night, there actually isn’t too much to report on from the home front! The past couple of weeks have been kind of stressful, what with deadlines, projects, presentations, and visualizing a happy ending to a large foodie event I’m involved in a few weeks down the road (details to come,) so I welcomed the chance to zone out and recharge the batts, if you will.

As Luca Spaghetti said in the film Eat, Pray, Love (which I also watched this weekend): “Americans. Uhhh, touche, Signor Spaghetti. Enough of zee whining though, I got another Take-Out Fake-Out recipe for ya’ today!

Body Language - Eyes

For reading body language this is quite useful as looking at people's eyes are a normal part of communication (whilst gazing at other parts of the body can be seen as rather rude). When a person wears dark glasses, especially indoors, this prevents others from reading their eye signals. It is consequently rather disconcerting, which is why 'gangsters' and those seeking to appear powerful sometimes wear them.
