Recipe Roundup

I've got too many tabs open, and I need to save all this stuff because I'm planning to reference back to or make some of this stuff in the very near future.

So here we go!

Also, have I mentioned my love for Cooking Channel and Food Network?  I've found a few really fantastic new blogs to follow through them, specifically The 99 cent Chef and Casserole Crazy.  I was already following Fancy Fast Food, and you should too.

difficult relationships (with a lot of things.)

I've been called "fat" pretty much my entire life by my peers. I was taught through assimilation of meaning that to be fat was not just a statement of fact, but an insult and also to imply that I was unattractive, undesirable, and not worth knowing. The irony of this of course being that while yes, I have fat, I was not exactly obese until I was probably a senior in high school.  I was not, however, rail thin nor under-developed much to my chagrin.  Puberty decided to "gift" me as early as eleven, and just went crazy from there.
