Does anyone have a good recipe for Hostess Twinkies? I found a couple on the Williams-Sonoma website for “Chocolate Cream Boat Cakelets” and “Vanilla Cream Boat Cakelets”. Has anyone tried either of these...

the manager/hostess there? Granted, I have given her the opportunity to be rude, with my gaffes- no reservations on a Friday night, more attendees at my birthday party than we had anticipated etc., but I am almost certain (with...

I am going to spend Thanksgiving dinner with my boyfriend’s family, and am looking for something creative to bring as a gift. Nothing too pricey, but something that shows thought. I am a details person, NOT an ideas person,...

Did anyone catch this NY Times article about Hue? Is it true? Has anyone eaten there? Good/Bad/Awful? Link: http://www.nytimes.com/2004/07/11/fashion/11COCO.html

This is such a weird one. My family was invited to a “party,” really more of a dinner. I asked the hostess what I could bring, she said she didn’t need anything. I’d normally bring a bottle of wine anyway,...

of Saturday. I’d love ideas for a good homemade hostess gift that won’t take a lot of time but they will like. Last time I made chocolate chip cookies so I don’t want to repeat it. Thanks in advance for...

I’m looking for a recipe for my grandpa’s birthday. He loves Hostess cupcakes but I want to make an improved homemade version. I’m thinking maybe a nice devil’s food cake with a fluffy cream filling and...

...whether ribs or fish, top notch all the way around. Desserts were evenly tasty... But please allow me to give special props to the hostess, who worked tirelessly to help seat our party of 10 when 4 of us were late arrivals. We...
