Colleen's Potato Crescent Rolls
Haven't even cooked this entirely yet; and I didn't allow it to sit for the 8 hours as mentioned; only did 2 hours in the freezer; but the dough is beautiful to work with; really easy; not sticky in the least; really seems foolproof so long as your yeast is working properly. And I rolled it out to about a 16-18 inch circle; just size wise to roll the crescents; seemed better; still cut out the 16 wedges as directed (just means for the 16-18 inch you get a few more rolls/rotations in each roll than you for the the 12); and the rose absolutely stunningly; are huge; and they've only just popper in the oven!! Done half with jsut the butter and half with garlic butter; and they smell and look devine!!

Fluffy Pancakes
We always make lots of extra pancakes when I make them - makes great leftovers for breakfast for the next few days, especially for the kids. REally very nice flavour to the pancakes - did use lemon juice instead of vinegar; always finds it adds a nicer flavour than using the vinegar; but has the same effect. I did find that mine weren't 'tall' as the recipe stated they would be - but that could be simply because with most pancakes I always beat the egg whites and yolks (seperately)to incorperate more air into the batter; making for a lighter and fluffier pancake - perhaps next time I'll try without doing so; see what the results are. Don't get me wrong; though; these do have a devine flavour and extremely (!!) light texture; really were quite nice; regardless of the fact that they really weren't that 'tall'; they will still go amungst our regular pancake recipes! Thanks for a quick; simple and very tasty, recipe!

Spaghetti Carbonara II
Quite nice; we liked it alot; my daughter thought it was ok; my stepson ate barely half; if that, of his. Did add a bit more garlic; as well as some mushrooms; some capsicum (bell peppers for those in America); and some spinach; and omitted the wine (as we don't drink any at all; didn't see the point of getting some jus to use a little bit of the bottle; as the rest would have been wasted) - I do realize all of this would have changed the flavour a bit; but we liked it as we'd had it. Great base recipe; though!
