I could have won a bottle of your preserves, Catherine! and I wouldn't ever like eat it or anything, but it could have been sitting there mixed in with my stuff, just as though I actually knew youNilanjana Bosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08656370320322301943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31773345.post-41869304686071276702012-03-31T01:13:46.954-04:002012-03-31T01:13:46.954-04:00Catherine,

For example, I'd love to have a link to the Utah friends' site and I can't remember the name of the new magazine that is all about crafts and doesn't have any ads. I didn't buy it when you first posted and now when I search "Catherine Newman magazine" I mostly get Wondertime, which just makes me miss it all over again! I like to support you when I shop and I'd love to be able to get to those options from your main page.

Although I read all the baby center posts, etc., as you wrote them, I went back and read a few today and thought I would leave you a long overdue message. I hope you know that there are scores of readers out there like me that never comment but think your writing is incredibly wise, funny, and beautiful. thank you thank you!iranzaminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12784221934559684086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31773345.post-39530755701993585132012-03-30T00:26:27.122-04:002012-03-30T00:26:27.122-04:00I went haywire and ordered the coffee and popper a...I went haywire and ordered the coffee and popper all at the same time.

And now the bonus of a recipe for donut cake. Really. Winning all over the place.<br /><br />I love Nigella Lawson's buttermilk birthday cake, so this donut cake is right up my alley. The addition of nutmeg and that bit of cornmeal sound dreamy.<br /><br />Go, Ben! Can't wait to hear about his performance.<br /><br />Thanks, Catherine, for everything.Library Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12605290533219549859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31773345.post-85942534498059184302012-03-29T14:54:44.785-04:002012-03-29T14:54:44.785-04:00After you are done clapping for the fabulous Mr. B...After you are done clapping for the fabulous Mr. Ben, I so hope that the promised fun, fun, fun includes the instructions for the upcycled sweater-blanket, because that first photo has made me yearn for it all over again. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31773345.post-77440378512019422822012-03-28T18:26:41.857-04:002012-03-28T18:26:41.857-04:00Break a leg, Ben! :-) (I do not mean that literal...Break a leg, Ben! :-) (I do not mean that literally, of course....)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31773345.post-47633669788721164182012-03-28T13:04:23.204-04:002012-03-28T13:04:23.204-04:00I was inspired to make your "Donut Cake"...I was inspired to make your "Donut Cake" last night, and my family dubbed it Egg Nog Cake instead. Yummy, no matter what you call it! Somehow, my cake didn't deflate in the middle. I wonder, do you think I could add some mashed bananas to the cake batter near the end? Seems like a cup or so of mashed bananas would go really well.Aminoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31773345.post-18990478571286097912012-03-27T22:20:22.114-04:002012-03-27T22:20:22.114-04:00lastdogz, yes. it must be designated for the coffe...lastdogz, yes. it must be designated for the coffee. it will taste and smell like coffee ever after. but i hear you! i hate the multiple devices. you could get a whirley-pop for the coffee. . . different instructions, but same idea.BenBirdy1https://www.blogger.com/profile/13328557199418095755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31773345.post-38422093420933519792012-03-27T22:12:36.119-04:002012-03-27T22:12:36.119-04:00Congrats to the winners!

He was a little skeptical, but I think I can win him over. Question - does the air popper have to only be for coffee because popcorn will forever taste like coffee after you've used it for coffee beans? I have a lovely 1981 air popper (The Poppery), and I'm just not sure I am a two air popper person. <br />I think Ben carries hot pink better than most people I know.lastdogzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01002382627081976712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31773345.post-71753704975246410732012-03-27T21:25:50.236-04:002012-03-27T21:25:50.236-04:00Oh timing!
