Boston, Massachusetts

Oliver Wendell Holmes may have simply meant that Boston’s State House was “the hub of the solar system.” But locals quickly deemed the whole city worthy of such praise, and Boston itself became known as “the Hub.” (Later, Bostonians would expand this modest conceit to encompass the entire universe). For certain, Boston was the home of some of America’s most important nation-building moments: the Boston Tea Party, the start of Paul Revere’s ride, the Battle of Bunker Hill. At one time, Boston was a major player in turning Caribbean molasses into rum -- molasses also being the secret ingredient in Boston baked beans and Boston brown bread. Today, Boston is a hub of both fine and causal dining. The North End continues to show off its Italian heritage. And the South End is rapidly becoming the best place in town for enjoying trendy cuisines. If you’re looking for coffee and a donut to get you going in the morning, you shouldn’t need to walk further than the nearest corner to find a Dunkin’ Donuts.

Pepperoni Stuffed Mushrooms

Reviewed on Dec. 1, 2008 by LISA3267
Delish, Delish, DE-LISH! These came out like little pizzas in a 'shroom! I was able to make the stuffing part the night before, and it held up perfectly. I used little pepperoni snack sticks to dice up.Big sticks would have been way too hard to dice into small pieces. Followed directions exactly. No need for subsitutions! All of these went!!! THANKS!

Cranberry Baklava

Reviewed on Dec. 1, 2008 by LISA3267
Oh my gosh!! What can I say about this dessert!! Well, for one, it's totally delectible! Time consuming, but easy enought. I was a bit confused with the wording of instructions. It could have been me, but still came out perfect! I used fresh cranberries from my aunts Cape Cod bogs, organic sugar and honey. I only used 3/4c of honey. I felt that 1 1/2c was wayy too much. I'm glad I did. It was way sweet and sticky enough with all that honey. WOW! GREAT recipe!!! Thanks!

Carla's Fruit Dip

Reviewed on Dec. 1, 2008 by LISA3267
This recipe is the best as far as I'm concerned. I tried omitting the Extra Creamy Coolwhip, but it seemed to be missing something. So I added about 1/2 the container (6 oz?) to the mix, and voila'! Perfect! My daughter went through 4 bananas eating this dip! She couldn't get enough! I used Bananas, Pineapple, Strawberries and Fuji,Grannysmith apples. Addictive!!
