Today I fixed a recipe for a refreshing summer salad, and was astonished is NOT YET included in your many favorite salads. My father was raised in Brooklyn, and is originally from Russian/Polish ancestry, so this may account for the recipe. It is great on a hot summer evening anywhere. No idea if there's a special name for it--do you know? 1 bunch radishes, thinly sliced, 1 cucumber, peeled, sliced in quarters lengthwise, and sliced about 1/4" thick, 1 scallion thinly sliced, 1 - 1 1/4 cups sour cream. Salt & pepper to taste (I like lots, with sour cream.) Even better with bread and butter on the side. Keep up the great work, humor, marvelous photography, and inspiration!

OMG!! It was delicious. Unfortunately, I kept eating the cherries out of the pan before putting the batter in. I love this site. I could throw all my cookbooks away and just use your site.

(You know how some people get with zucchini? They grow so much their neighbors run when they see them coming? We're a bit like that with lemons. Thank goodness it's a very small tree.)

I made the Margarita cookies for Memorial Day and they were amazing! They were a little smaller than pictured, but I was told that only meant we were able to eat more. Thanks! And my oven really did smell like a warm margarita :-) My best friend directed me to your site, and I am so glad she did! I made the Margarita cookies for Memorial Day and they were amazing!
