Q&A: My Chemical Romance's Gerard Way on New Album 
After My Chemical Romance's grueling two-year tour in support of their hit third album, The Black Parade, the quintet put the band on hiatus and retreated to their personal lives to recover. Frontman Gerard Way married and had his first child, daughter Bandit Lee. It was the the chance to cover Bob Dylan's "Desolation Row" for the 2009 blockbuster/graphic novel adaptation of Watchmen that pried Way and his bandmates out of their houses, and found them beginning to formulate their next move. "It was a good test to play around with where we might potentially go," Way tells SPIN.com. "We started with the Sex Pistols and then decided to go back further, before punk. What was before punk that was punk? So there's the MC5 and the Stooges, and that Detroit sound."
And those are just a few of the touchstone bands whose influences surface on MCR's as-yet-untitled fourth album, due in the Spring. Hints of Judas Priest, Def Leppard, and the Hives permeate seven new songs previewed for SPIN.com: "Death Before Disco," "Save Yourself," "Trans Am," "Only Hope," "Light Behind Your Eyes," "Black Dragon Fighting Society," and "L.A. Heavy." And while Gerard is still writing songs to stir the jilted, with his typically snide worldview intact, these tunes reveal a band having a damn good time. We caught up with Way to talk about the album, its roots in the band's home state of New Jersey -- and even a certain MTV reality show that's filmed there.

| french macarons |
[22 Dec 2009|10:49am] |
does anyone have an ALMOST foolproof recipe for french macarons? I know they're pretty hard to make, I was just wondering if anyone here has a recipe they've used that turned out well.
Thanks!

First time poster :)......
This month was one of my best friends at universities birthday, and I decided to make it special. She had already seen I had made my boyfriend a birthday cake for his birthday last month, so she hinted what she wanted me to make, not actually thinking I would make it.
and here it is! I kind of wish I also bought some of the regular size party rings to photograph in comparison, but non the less she was extremely grateful and shocked when I walked into our local pub with it to give to her.
Before I tidied up the icing.

| Egg yolks |
[22 Dec 2009|06:53pm] |
I have a small dilemma. On Christmas Eve I will be making 2 four egg pavlovas for Christmas day.. and yes, you guessed it, what to do with the egg yolks. I'm in New Zealand so I wouldn't be able to use it for anything too hot as it is the middle of the summer here.
I usually make a Gold Cake with four egg yolks, but that is getting a bit old now and I would like to make something a bit different. Preferably in the biscuit or cake line.
Anyone have a recipe or two I could use? Please :)

Hi everyone!
So I went to a holiday party a few days ago, and one woman brought these cookies that I swear are the best cookies I've ever had!...
The taste and texture was like a shortbread cookie, and they were plump and thick, not flat. They had a crumbly texture at first but melted in your mouth. I can definitely taste some cream of tartar in them. ALSO, the best part-- they were topped with buttery sesame seeds before being baked-- a nice salty contrast to the sweet, buttery cookie.
I was so sad the lady left before I got a chance to ask her for the recipe. Does anyone have an idea of what I'm talking about?? I hope so, this community has never failed me before lol =)
Thanks in advance!

I tweaked a recipe from Sandra Lee's addition to Food Network's 12 Days of Cookies and came up with something delicious. The original recipe* got terrible reviews, with good reason, but the idea of peppermint sugar cookies really appealed to me so I played with it a bit and came up with this. My mom & I made up plates of several kinds of cookies for friends and neighbors this year, and these were a hit.
( Recipe under the cut. )

| christmas dog treats |
[21 Dec 2009|05:17pm] |
Hey everyone! I'm not extremely good at baking but I am looking for Christmas Cookie Recipes for dogs. I looked through the tags but I didn't find any *christmasy* ones. Oh also I was hoping for one preferably without using a cookie cutter.
Thanks! :)

I'm making sugar cookies for the my cousin's son to frost and decorate on Christmas Eve (the poor dear is the only kid). I never frost cookies, so I'm looking for something that will be easy for him to work with (he's 5), but will still taste delicious and sweet.
Any ideas?

Indy fans help me out tweet @theaptour asking them to add an Indy date and spread the word.
EDIT: not limiting to just Indy fans like I live an hour away from Indy I guess more Central Indiana fans or fans if they come there it'd be the closest they'd come, I just got to wordy with that didn't I oh well
cross posted, so, sorry if you see this more than once

| Yule log |
[20 Dec 2009|03:54pm] |
This is my yule log (and my first post here). The button mushrooms are almond paste, the shelf mushrooms are dark chocolate peanut butter cups, the dirt is ground up oreos. The filling is whipped cream with some buttercream frosting folded in, for stiffness, the frosting is chocolate buttercream with some whipped cream folded in for flufflyness. The cake is a standard chocolate roll cake, like the recipes already posted, and available all over online.
