Schmap Releases Tool to Break Down the Demographics of Your Twitter Followers – October 28, 2011 – Another new media/social media tool to check out. I am never sure which ones I will continue to use on a regular basis, but I think it is important to check out new services as they appear. It will be interesting to see what information it turns up about my Twitter followers.
Strawberry Soda – October 27, 2011 – Great idea to make soda syrups at home. I love a good fizzy beverage at times and it would be great to make them with some real fruit to bring a small amount of healthiness to them.
Royal Society opens archive, kills productivity – October 26, 2011 – Knowledge should be free for everyone! What a great resource. I know I will be spending some time poking around the archives. It will be great to see some of the original papers discussed in the recent BBC docu on electricity – Shock and Awe.
Make your own fog machine for $5 – October 26, 2011 – A bit DIY for most people, but could be an interesting experiment to do with the kids and use for the Halloween haunt.
from The Red Ferret Journal – gadgets, cool sites, freeware and tech trivia
With Halloween fast approaching, I’m sure that some of you are still trying to figure out ways to make your house spookier than ever. Scary decorations are nice, and having the perfect lighting helps, but [...]
Strawberry-Nutella Thumbprint Cookies | Sinfully Spicy – October 23, 2011 – Interesting twist on other thumbprint and chocolate kiss cookies, although I think it would work just as well with a kiss in the center, too. I like the inclusion of even a small amount of “real” fruit. I can use all the good eating help I can get (LAUGH)
New media bypassing TV channels, book publishers – October 18, 2011 – An interesting story. I had been wondering what was taking these large companies so long to dive into production themselves. I think it is only a natural progression of the changes new media is having on the market.
A Collection of Beautiful, Free Fonts – October 13, 2011 – Sometimes a new font is just the thing to activate your design thinking. There are quite a few interesting ones here.
ROSEMARY FLATBREAD – October 13, 2011 – I used to make something like this years ago from a recipe by a friend. I think it is time to bring it back onto the menu.
The Curvy Carrot » Cherry Chocolate Kisses – October 10, 2011 – Oh my! This looks like a wonderful switch on the usual peanut butter and chocolate kiss cookies I make each Christmas.
River Cottage – River Cottage Community Recipes – October 8, 2011 – Looking for ways to get more veg in my diet, and this sounds like a great way to do it. I like lentils and we recently started making several curry recipes, so this one seems good to add to that mix. I might reduce the overall size of this recipe as, in the TV show, it was designed to feed an army of firemen.
Pumpkin Cream Cheese Spread Recipe – October 8, 2011 – Sounds good for a Fall brunch or business meeting. It is the season for pumpkin and I am seeing recipes for it everywhere.
AnyMeeting, The Free Webinar Service, Launches Redesign, Six-Way Video Conferencing – October 8, 2011 – I did some testing with this site today. The overall functionality appears to work well, but the recording function seems a bit wonky. Video was there, but the audio seemed to be lost. I will contact them and see if there is a solution to that problem.
PUMPKIN PIE FUDGE – October 7, 2011 – More fudgy goodness to try this season.
Seeing Trees – Book Review – October 7, 2011 – This sounds like a good book to curl up with on a cold Winter’s night. I have added it to my Goodreads.com To Read list. Available on Amazon from the WelchWrite Bookstore.
Cake Batter Ice Cream – October 7, 2011 – Now that I have an ice cream maker attachment for my KitchenAid mixer, these recipes are starting to show up everywhere.
Carla Hall's Fried Apple Pancake Rings – October 7, 2011 – Sounds like a cool idea and adds a little fruit to the pancake. Worth trying at least once. I think I would have to thin out the pancake batter I use, though.
Martha Monday: Warm Vanilla Apple Cider Recipe – October 7, 2011 – Yummy for a cold winter evening. I am sure we will find one fo these, eventually, here in Los Angeles. What a great drink to share with friends and family.
HAWAII GARDENING: DIY Watering Can – October 6, 2011 – Cool and simple way to reuse a container. I have needed a more gently watering can and I think I have some of these empty bottles in the laundry. Project Time! (SMILE)

I have been using another, similar recipe for a while now, but wanted a recipe that allowed me to make it larger volumes. I will probably tweak this recipe to add back anything missing from my current one, now that I have some proportions to use as a guide.
