I wanted to post here because I'm having 2 events in Hawaii, one this Thursday, August 4th at Muumuu Heaven in Kailua (Oahu)-3-5 pm; the other at Barnes and Noble, in Kahala, on August 13th...at 1pm. <br />I would love to meet fellow cooks and lovers of beautiful food in Hawaii.

The texture was so interesting and different from what I had expected. I added a bit of almond extract, which gave a wonderful flavor to compliment the sweetness of the rest of the ingredients.Bianca @ Upright Vacuum Cleanerhttp://uprightvacuumcleanerguide.com/hoover-platinum-upright-vacuum-cleaner/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2696248883608841507.post-86103085229868134602011-07-18T09:56:29.494-10:002011-07-18T09:56:29.494-10:00Janet--for the book review I just posted the one r...Janet--for the book review I just posted the one recipe from the publisher.
