Monkey Bread with Bourbon Crème Anglaise | Apartment Therapy The Kitchn - StumbleUpon It didn't totally blow up my radar, however, until only a few weeks ago. I was celebrating a bachelorette with some of my favorite girlfriends at a too-cool-for-school Atlanta restaurant. We had already overindulged in one too many courses of food, but our waiter gently encouraged us to order the sampler platter of desserts. I couldn't begin to tell you what else was on that giant tray of desserts. I fell hard for monkey bread that night; I've been waiting patiently for the right time to recreate it.

1,451 Dwarf Names « Dwarven Glory (For those who arrived here via Google or Facebook, click here to learn about Dwarven Glory.) Asgårdian dwarves observe strict naming conventions which stretch back millennia. Player characters are limited to selecting names which are suitable to the old-school post-Ragnarök Norse milieu. Specifically, all Dwarven Glory PCs must select their names from products in the IKEA catalogue. In addition to the dwarf’s given name, a sobriquet or description must also be added for flavour. Kivik Forkbeard, for example, or Billy the Axe. (I’ve gone through and struck out some names which are unsuitable or have been used already.) Matthew Schmeer of Rended Press has extracted the complete IKEA product list and produced the following 1,451 dwarf names. Thanks, Matthew!

Customizable LED Vodka Bottles Bring A New Meaning To ‘Message In A Bottle’ New York-based company Medea has created an innovative way to package and sell its award-winning vodka—which it claims is ‘Times Square’ in a bottle. The company has designed a glass bottle with a programmable LED strip that is able to store six different scrolling messages, with each message containing up to 255 characters—allowing users to key in personalized messages onto the bottle.

Now you’re talkin’. I know there are plenty of cookie-dough-nay-sayers out there… you know, the salmonella scare and all . Chilled dough is rolled into 1-inch balls.

The story begins around 1906 and continues through World War I, Prohibition, and President Warren G. The novel is written from the point of view of an anonymous narrator, who continually complains about his poor writing skills and often uses circumlocution.

Cinnamon Toast&Rolls The USDA released its new food pyramid the other day (which is actually a plate now instead of a pyramid), and I am sorely disappointed to report that cinnamon rolls did not appear anywhere on that plate. I think by now most of us know what should be on our dinner plate in terms of healthy, well-rounded nutrient-laden meals, but it is my considered opinion that our breakfast plate should include cinnamon rolls now and then. And not just any cinnamon roll, mind you, but how ‘bout a homemade cinnamon roll hybrid that is a cross between a cinnamon roll and cinnamon toast, is super easy to make and gosh darn delicious. In honor of their ancestry, I call these little gems cinnamon toast rolls, and here’s all you need to make them… Yep. Trim the crusts off of the bread Roll the bread really flat Brush both sides of the bread with butter Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar Roll in any fashion you like (I’ve also folded them into little triangles) Cinnamon Toast Rolls Click here for a printable recipe
