Part 2 of Recipes

Here's the other things that I made:

Lavender cream filled cupcakes with a citrus cream cheese frosting-- a recipe from the now defunct Chockylit's cupcake blog.


Potato salad from the Salt Lick (although I added 4 strips bacon to mine and cut the mayo by 1/2). The key is truly brining the onions in pickle juice overnight.

Corn avocado salad from the Food Network. I subbed sundried tomatoes for the grape tomatoes.

And finally, I made hamburger and hot dog buns from scratch. The recipe is in this month's edition of Gourmet Magazine. More pictures are available on my facebook page-- see the album titled "Baked things."
