The food thread got me thinkin: Where does everyone go for all their recipes?

I've got three main resources:
www.allrecipes.com Lots of new ideas, very few I actually enjoy making.
www.cookingforengineers.com Few recipes, but I like the layout... My engineering mind comprehends the structure better that way. :)
Mom's old list of recipes. She finally put them on paper and loaded them into a Word document for all of us kids. :)

I use Google. Picked up some good recipes for Salmon recently including the glaze Applebees uses, that stuff is good!

Premade is the only way to go when it comes to a grandma's cooking. It'll never be even half as good if you have to make it yourself, especially my grandma's ham gravy :D

I make the kitty litter cake on this site for get togethers at work.

I made this for our Halloween party last year. No one would eat it. Everyone said it looked too real, and then they'd see the evil black cat walk by, and they would just wonder. :confused: Of course, Jeff had to get chocolate icing and one of those icing squeezer thingies and make it look even more realistic. :eek: Finally, a couple of the kids got brave and they ate most of it.

I had enough to make two cakes so I brought the other one to work. One lady came into my office, and let me say that she was very much on the huge side, and she told me that she wouldn't eat that cake because it was too realistic. I told Jeff I finally found something that she wouldn't eat!!! :p :D
