How to Double or Triple a Recipe Accurately

By Noreen Doll. I have a recipe for Gingersnaps that makes such a small amount of cookies, that I need to double or triple it most of the time when I make them.

Gingersnaps – A Favorite Family Recipe

By Noreen Doll. These gingersnaps are an old family favorite, although we like them soft and chewy rather than crisp. They have a wonderful spicy flavor and don't last long when we make them.

Quick Clean Up Tip for Raw Egg Mess

by Noreen Doll. Drop an Egg on the floor? Here's a quick clean up tip. Grab your salt box and sprinkle a handful of salt all over the egg. Make it pretty thick, and be sure to get some around the edges. Let it sit a moment while the egg soaks up the salt.
