Winter Leek and Potato Soup
Simple and excellent! I only made a few minor changes. I used 1.5 times the half and half and cheese, and I used the Mexican cheese blend from Costco, since that's what I had on hand. Otherwise, I followed the recipe exactly, and it had the perfect texture and flavor. Very nice.

Coconut Oatmeal Cookies II
I'm only giving this four stars, because I made substantial changes. I wanted it to be a bit more healthy. I omitted the white sugar, as per other reviewers, and I cut the brown sugar down to 1/2 cup. I also replaced 1/3 of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour and used dark chocolate chips. They turned out great. The second time I made them, I decided to use just 1/2 cup of Splenda brown sugar mix and replace all of the flour with whole wheat. They also turned out very tasty like this, however since most of the calories come from fat, using Splenda only saved me about 14 calories. For this reason, I probably won't do it again. The third time I made them, I used 1/2 cup of regular brown sugar, all whole wheat flour, and I replaced the butter with mashed banana. This cut down on the calories hugely, but they just weren't as nice. The banana was a bit too strong and made the texture slightly rubbery. I may try this again but only replace half of the butter with banana. Otherwise, I'll stick to 1/2 cup brown sugar, no white sugar and all whole wheat flour.

MMMMM... Brownies
These brownies were great! I followed another reviewer's advice and added some extra flour-coated chocolate chips. They were rich and scrumptious.
