My cooking tragedies
When I was 13, I made pecan rolls for my family. The recipe called for 8 refrigerator biscuits but the package held 10. My mom asked me what I did with the other 2. Judging from the look on her face, "I threw them away" wasn't the right answer.

Bob's Teriyaki Sauce and Marinade
Seriously, this is the real deal. Just the way Mom used to make it when we lived in Japan. Don't try to substitute dried ginger because it just doesn't give you that bright hit of fresh ginger flavor. And when you do the cornstarch thickener, make sure your water is cold when you mix it in. Thanks for a good recipe, Bob!

Plum Blueberry Upside Down Cake
What an amazingly easy cake, and so delicious. I made it with white peaches instead of plums, and I used a 9-inch cake pan. I had to bake it for longer than the 40 minutes specified in the recipe, but oh well. The secret to getting the cake out of the pan is to butter the bottom and the sides well, then let the cake rest for about three minutes after taking it out of the oven. Tilt the pan from side to side to get the cake to pull away, then put a plate over it and turn the whole thing over. (Protect your hands from the heat - but you knew that.) The cake was a big hit. Next time, I'll make it with plums.
