    The Million Dollar Cookie

    'Double-Delight Peanut Butter Cookies' - that's the name of a culinary concoction that won Carolyn Gurtz of Maryland one million dollars. Ms. Gurtz won the Pillsbury Bake-Off Grand Prizes and another five grand with the Jif Peanut Butter Award. The recipe does sound pretty darn scrumptious - I'm going to make these and taste if they're up to snuff... if you already have, let me know! While the grand prize was chosen by a panel of judges, the recipe that received the most online votes is called 'Toffee-Banana Brownies'. Mmmmmm!

    B is for borborygmus

    A new book for word-lovers! L is for Lollygag: Quirky Words for a Clever Tongue is loaded with brouhaha without being a mollycoddler. Get this book, and the next time your stomach is growling you can say, "Alakazam! I've got borborygmus." I'm not sure that you'd want to say that, but you could.
