As I have gotten further into the blogging arena, I have been introduced to lots of cool little specialty shops. One of those shops was Cookware Specialty. Cookware Specialty has everything you could possibly need in the kitchen. For example, how great is this mixing bowl? It’s a Pyrex glass bowl with a rubber handle and a silicone non-slip footer. They carry Corningware . . . and Paula Deen Cookware!

{EXPIRED} Giveaway: Make Your Own Soda (Cokes!)

Tropical Traditions was gracious enough to giveaway a bottle of that oil to one of the MelissaStuff readers. Recently, they offered to send me their palm shortening to try out. I love to bake so I was all about that offer. I was surprised when the “sample” arrived and it was a 1 gallon pail of shortening. I’m pretty sure that’s enough to make cookies for the next decade or so! Fair warning – when you go to use this for the first time, know that it will be difficult to get the lid off and if you aren’t particularly handy, you might want to have someone else around to help you. I didn’t and it took me about ten minutes, several different tools, and even breaking the tip off of an industrial file before I could get it. The shortening inside looks pretty normal, maybe a little less thick than standard shortening. I think it looks almost like mayonnaise. But it’s easy to scoop out and l...
