Oct 18: Tip of the Day: If your cake recipe calls for nuts, heat them first in the oven, then dust with flour before adding to the batter to keep them from settling to the bottom of the pan.
 

Oct 17: Tip of the Day: Never heat pesto sauce - the basil will turn black and taste bitter.  

 

Oct 14: Tip of the Day: No "curly" bacon for breakfast when you dip it into cold water before frying.
