Saturday, August 19, 2006. Mint Ice Cream Dessert. Food snobs laugh at this dessert, and choose the tiramisu, but then end up sampling this and loving it. Helping to demonstrate the creation of this delicious summer dessert (perfect for your weekend barbecue) is Daniel, from Holland. He can't wait to try it when he gets home. Unfortunately they do not have Oreos in Holland. And they do not have mint chip ice cream. 1 package of Oreo Cookies. 1 cube butter or margarine. 65 Daniel added a Dutch-touch to th...

Sunday, July 17, 2005. It would not be a summer get-together without Dan’s famous guacamole. Start this half an hour before the guests arrive. First choose the music for the event. Musicals are preferred perhaps a Gershwin production or a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta, or Oklahoma, or possibly Frank Sinatra or Eartha Kitt. Have the music playing while you make this. 1/4 to 1/3 of a medium sized white onion. Generous handful of cilantro. 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon sea salt. One tomato, cut into very small pieces.

Saturday, April 29, 2006. Life-Sized Cake Recipe and Step by Step Assembly Instructions. 12-18 cakes (13 x 9 inches each). 8 - 12 pounds powdered sugar. 3 pounds of butter. The first thing to do is find out how tall your subject is, and in the case of someone very tall, you may need to measure your table to be assured that it is long enough to display the final product. Start baking cakes several days in advance and put them in the freezer. Lay out the cakes (its ok if they're still frozen). The final pr...
