Egg Noodles
This was so yummy! Please believe me when I tell you my 5 year old is a picky eater! Last night I made these and he wanted 3rds. YES THIRDS!!! I did not change a thing and it turned out perfectly. Reminds me of the recipe my mom used to do when I was little except it used 5 eggs. Love only using 2 in this one. I think maybe next time I will add a little fresh chopped parsley to the dough before rolling it out and cutting it just for some color! EXCELLENT!!!

Peppermint Patties
I truly am not sure what I am doing wrong here. I used peppermint extract and followed the recipe exactly. I found that the consistency was very watered down and thin. I thought hmmm, let me just put in more powdered sugar to make it thicker. I ended up putting another 2 cups in. Still feeling something wasn't right I still went with it. Taking the advice of others I placed in the freezer hoping that it would firm up. It did a little but was still soft to where you could put your finger impression in it. After looking at the bottle of extract I saw it had over 80% alcohol in it so it wasn't going to set up in the freezer. I did like the way it smelled up my house . Maybe with peppermint oil this time. Hmmm very dissapointed. Didn't even get to use my chocolate!

World's Best Lasagna
OMG!!! This is absolutely fabulous. If I am making this for supper, our neighbors know! No seriously, the aromas literally can be smelled at my neighbors house! Absolutely one of the best lasagnas I have ever tasted! If I was to own my own restaurant, this would be my recipe of choice! This is probably one of the few recipes when I call supper time, the kids have their hands washed and have their butts parked at the table, before I can get it on the pot holders! Thank you John for a great recipe. It does take some work...but well worth the wait! My husband can never find his push away muscles at the table when its Lasagna night! He always gains a few extra pounds!
