Archetype of Imagination Discussion
midget_overlord on Geist of Saint Traft EDH
4 days ago
Sorry, for spamming comments. I just really like deck building. If you're running with the investigate mechanic, like Trail of Evidence, you really should run Tamiyo's Journal to get that deck search. Speaking of which, I would change out Trail of Evidence for Ongoing Investigation, taking advantage of the number of creatures you have vs the smaller amount of instants and sorceries. Another ubiquitous, but expensive, card that everyone should have in EDH (in my opinion) is Sensei's Divining Top. Absolute top notch deck manipulation. I was thinking about your creatures a bit more. Glorious Anthem and Always Watching are really good. If you get more diverse abilities on the field Odric, Lunarch Marshal can spread them around. If you want to dominate the air a bit more Archetype of Imagination can guarantee that to you, with Archetype of Courage almost guaranteeing combat wins. Alternatively, True Conviction can replace the Archetype. Dictate of Heliod and Dictate of Kruphix can both be good as well. Angel of Jubilation is another good creature choice.
Obviously you shouldn't add in everything, these are all suggestions for you to decide where you want your deck to go. Personally, I think that you could make this a pretty solid Angel deck. You would just need more mana ramp. For that, Thran Dynamo, Sol Ring, Marble Diamond, Sky Diamond, and the like are what you should aim for.
Tangarell on Omens foretell Leviathans
6 days ago
Looking at making this deck modern competitive. My main staples are going to be of course, Omen Machine and Stormtide Leviathan. The Leviathan prevents all attack except for islandwalk (which isn't used much) and flying, so Archetype of Imagination is used to put the battlefield in stasis. This setup will be hard to set up without some kind of ramp to put the machine out before turn 6. To this end, I am thinking Renowned Weaponsmith and Silver Myr. The second problem would be getting the Machine to hand, which Treasure Mage would help with. Once the machine is out, "stacking" the deck via Sigiled Starfish and Mystic Speculation will be essential to ensure the freebies we want are on top of the deck. This takes 8 of the 10 spell slots in the deck, the last 2 would go to counterspells to help protect our Leviathans. We can't use instants, or the Machine would just fizzle them, so we have to use permanents such as Dovescape and Daring Apprentice. As for Lands, the only nonbasic land needed would be Buried Ruin, just in case our machines break down.
This makes the total proposed deck as thus:
Creatures: 21
Archetype of Imagination x4
Daring Apprentice x4
Renowned Weaponsmith x4
Sigiled Starfish x4
Silver Myr x4
Stormtide Leviathan x4
Treasure Magex4
Artifacts: 4
Omen Machine x4
Enchantments: 4
Dovescape x4
Land: 20
Buried Ruin x4
Island x16
Sorcery: 4
Mystic Speculation x4
Any comments or improvements would be appreciated.
Dinobozo010 on Riku of Two Reflections
1 week ago
I don't think you have nearly enough ramp to justify that many 6+ CMC cards in this deck.
Things I would cut outright:
Fevered Visions Better to have a draw spell you can copy than to give your opponents more cards that can hurt you.
Fireball There are better X-costed burn spells out there at similar prices
Izzet Staticaster Pinging for one doesn't do enough in EDH
Platinum Angel It may sound like a good card, but it would be better to have something that could win you the game, rather than keep you from losing.
Hamletback Goliath Costs too much, and has no trample or flying to get past chump blockers, so its power is somewhat wasted.
You want to find more cards that do stuff when they enter the battlefield so you can copy them with Riku. But if you want to stick with these big-costed creatures, you need a lot more ramp, especially if you want to copy these big guys. Also look into creatures like Deadeye Navigator. That way you just need to copy when they re-enter the battlefield.
TranquilWyvern on The Masquerade of the Night-Clad Queen
4 weeks ago
Maybeboard Brief Analysis Show
AEther Figment: Effectively another 2 drop unblockable; probably a better than Blighted Agent.
Inkfathom Witch: Fear; a great combat trick if i have a lot of my low power creatures out. To put into perpective if I have 3 creatures and the witch, its a 4 turn clock.
Nether Traitor: 2 drop haste unblockable that keeps coming back; probably should go in the deck over Blighted Agent instead of AEther Figment, right?
Thada Adel, Acquisitor: Islandwalk with an artifact steal effect. Should I replace Nightveil Specter with her?
True-Name Nemesis: Protection from a named player; with bounce effects, this card can be a great beater. Dont know what I would take out for it though.
Skullsnatcher: Ninja with graveyard hate, something Im actually missing in this deck.
The Dauthi cards all have pretty interesting combos together, but probably the best ones are Dauthi Embrace or Dauthi Trapper as enablers, but they are pretty slow.
Archetype of Imagination is another enabler that should probably replace Wonder, but Ive found that it gets removed very quickly. Also, is it too expensive?
Anther enabler is Thassa, God of the Sea. Allows scrying, and its enable effect is cheaper than Rogue's Passage.
Drana, Liberator of Malakir works like a slower Necropolis Regent. It might be better than Glen Elendra Liege in the deck, but im not sure.
Riptide Entrancer works like Thalakos Deceiver, but without built-in evasion. For that reason, i dont think it should be in the deck.
Ashling, the Extinguisher's effect is like Throat Slitter; Removal is always great, and Ashling gets through hexproof or shroud.
Liliana's Reaver causes discard and produces tokens, but i feel it doesnt fit in this deck.
Banshee of the Dread Choir has myriad and causes discarding, but once again, i feel its better in other decks.
Broodbirth Viper, however, is pretty good in my opinion. With myriad, it can draw me tons of cards per attack. The tokens also provide ninjutsu fodder if i want it. Dont know what i should replace for it though.
Woebearer is great graveyard recursion, but I feel Hell's Caretaker is better.
Lord of the Void may be better than Mindleech Mass in this deck. Mindleech is already redundant with Silent-Blade Oni as well, but should I replace them?
Phage the Untouchable is a game winner, bjt this may be too cruel in this deck. Maybe Ill use it as a sideboard card for more competitive matches.
Scion of Darkness has the same effect as Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni, but much more expensive. While its good, it probably doesnt deserve a spot in the deck.
Big Game Hunter, Nekrataal, Bone Shredder, and Shriekmaw all are very good ETB removal effects. Of these, I would add in Bone Shredder and Shriekmaw for their innate evasion. Though BGH can be cutch against Blightsteel and the like.
Diluvian Primordial and Sepulchral Primordial are pretty insane and, with Deadeye Navigator, almost broken. Theyre pretty terrible with ninjas though.
Duplicant should be an auto-include, but i never got around to getting him. What should i replace for him?
Fleshbag Marauder and Merciless Executioner are pretty annoying cards for my opponents, but i feel that cards like Shriekmaw are better.
Mulldrifter was originally cut for Baleful Strix. Should I put it in again?
Sire of Stagnation can also draw me a crazy amount of cards if i can get it out early.
Cloud of Faeries, Peregrine Drake, etc.: Good only for Deadeye Navigator. ShouldI run them for another win condition?
Scuttlemutt: Fantastic with intimidate and Vela.
Tamiyo, the Moon Sage: Value city
Liliana of the Dark Realms: Insane ramp, so much that i feel it needs to be in this deck xD.
Blade of Selves: insane with all of the ETB and Attacking effects in the deck.
Quietus Spike: Pretty brutal in the deck. With Wound Reflection, its an auto-kill. Similarly to Phage the Untouchable, i feel bad about using it.
Conjurer's Closet gives more value to ETB effects, and Erratic Portal allows for another Crystal Shard. Cloudstone Curio is a one-sided Equilibrium. Is the three I have enough, or should add more of these effects?
What about more card draw effects like Bident of Thassa? Theres Coastal Piracy and Deepfathom Skulker.
I think I need some pillow fort effects in the deck because of all the attacking the deck wants to do. Propaganda, Crawlspace, Dissipation Field, and No Mercy are all great candidates. How many should I run?
Dire Undercurrents: Just pure value. Need to find a spot.
Buried Alive or Intuition: should I run one for Wonder and Filth
Increasing Devotion or other tutors: Is it imperative I run more?
Sorry about the length xD
Of these, the most important are the pillow fort cards, Dire Undercurrents, Nether Traitor, Blade of Selves and Broodbirth Viper, Archetype of Imagination, Lord of the Void, Scuttlemutt, and Inkfathom Witch
NewHorizons on Hanna, Captain of Myr EDH

If I were to make a myr deck I would personally use a different commander. But I suspect you have her use that commander for personal reasons.
I notice no Sol Ring or Lightning Greaves.
Coretapper seems good and only needs some otherwise good support to be helpful. i/e Lux Cannon which already works well with all your untapping artifacts stuff. Myr Enforcer seems alright. Palladium Myr is super good. There's also a pretty decent combo here with Cloudstone Curio and all the myr dorks. All you need is Cloud Key, Etherium Sculptor, Helm of Awakening, Planar Gate, Semblance Anvil, Urza's Incubator and something that gives an artifact haste like Lightning Greaves or Thousand-Year Elixir. Also, overrunning the field with myr seems like something that can go south really fast with any boardwipe. I'd try out Lifeline since this seems like a more casual deck anyway. This would go well with all your artifact etb effects as well.

libraryjoy your suggestions of Archetype of Imagination and Skyblinder Staff are a tad redundant. One affects your entire board whilst the other only helps one creature and both make dolphinsgrubbs creatures basically "Unblockable" barring Reach. The Archetype is the better choice imo.
Pride of the Clouds is a pretty decent card when looking at a stalled board and Stormtide Leviathan could be quite useful as well but not as good as Ghostly Prison or Propaganda in terms of combat hindrance. But once again, these are all simply my opinions from looking at the decklist and playing against the deck firsthand :)

What about Archetype of Imagination, Pride of the Clouds or Stormtide Leviathan? Skyblinder Staff also makes your fliers practically unblockable (only blocked by reach). And I second Warden of Evos Isle.

Thanks for the deck suggestions and upvote! Worm Harvest is a pretty awesome one I had not considered. I ran Spider Spawning back in the day but I think Harvest is just all-around better. Archetype of Imagination is pretty ballin too... I just cut Wonder AND I'm looking for a 6-drop to help the curve. Sweet. Much obliged!

During our March 2016, Rural Water Supply Operations Seminar in Summit Station, Pennsylvania we came across a "big water rig" from the Citizens Fire Company in Mahoney City. Engine 454 is set up to deliver multiple, large calibre fire streams from three different pre-piped master stream devices. The engine is a 2003 Pierce Lance pumper outfitted with a 2,000 gpm pump and a 450 hp motor.

Knowing the location of water supply sources before the fire occurs is pretty darn important. For those fire departments that take the time to locate, evaluate, develop, and document water supply sources ahead of time...before the the big fire...we generally find a better commitment to success in hauling and pumping water.

Photo: Madonna Works on 'Great Songs' With Avicii in the Studio
Earlier this month, Madonna confirmed that she's working on her new music with Avicii. On Thursday, March 13, the "Material Girl" singer shared some Instagram pictures of them in the studio and told fans that they had written "great songs" together.
In the first photo, Madonna is seen posing with the DJ whom she calls "Viking Leader." "The End of a long week with Viking Leader AKA DJ Virgo AKA Avicii! So many great songs! #icantwait #revolution," the 55-year-old musician captioned the pic.
The second snap shows Madonna sitting on the floor while holding her guitar. She's joined by Avicii and some friends. "My Viking Harem! Great Music Great Vibes! We were grinding on that. Wood!" she said.
The "great songs" will likely appear in Madonna's upcoming album, which she has started working on. "Yes, plans are in the works already," she told The Canadian Press of her new record last month.
"Don't ask me with who - it's a secret. Top secret," she added. When asked if she had any plans to collaborate with Toronto rapper Drake, she responded, "If he'll have me."

The present invention relates to a polyester powdered paint and, more particularly the present invention relates to a powdered paint comprising a thermoplastic crystalline polyethylene iso-terephthalate copolymer having a specified intrinsic viscosity and a specified composition. An object of the present invention is to provide a high-performance powdered paint whose coating film is not damaged even when products coated therewith are subjected to after-processing such as bending.
It is well known to coat a metallic surface with a polymer powder. For this purpose, various resin powder are widely used. Heretofore, as polyester powdered paints, amorphous polymer powder obtained by copolymerizing various acids or diols with polyethylene terephthalate has been used in order to coat the metallic surface. With regard to crystalline polyester polymers, resins per se are superior in various characteristics to the amorphous polymers. However, they have been considered to be quite unsuitable as powder paints from the viewpoint of adhesiveness to the metallic surface. Since conventional polyester powdered paints are amorphous polymers having a high second-order transition point, they are locking in extensibility. Thus, when coated metal goods such as metal pipes are subjected to after-processing such as bending, coating films are immediately cracked. There have not been known powdered paints including polyester powdered paints providing a coating film which could not be damaged even when subjected to a processing such as bending or pressing.
Study has long been made to obtain a high-performance powdered paint giving a coating film which is not damaged even when subjected to a processing such as bending.
We have now found that when high-molecular powder composed of a specified crystalline polyester is used, there can be obtained a high-performance coating film which has good adhesiveness to a metallic surface and can withstand after-processing such as bending.
According to one aspect the invention consists in a polyester polymer powdered paint comprising a thermoplastic polyethylene iso-terephthalate copolymer containing from 8 to 20 mol % of isophthalic acid component and having an intrinsic viscosity of from 0.7 to 1.0.
By way of example only, additives such as pigment, dye, etc. may be mixed with the polymer before or after grinding. A metallic surface can be coated with the resulting powdered material by any of conventional methods such as fluidized bed dip coating or electrostatic powder coating. Preferably, the metallic surface is abraded to keep it clean, and then coating is conducted. The polymer exhibits excellent adhesion to the metallic surface without treating it with a primer. But, if desired, the metallic surface may be previously treated with a primer. In order to weld the polymer to the metallic surface in the coating treatment, it is necessary to heat the metallic surface at a temperature of from 260� to 400� C.
The powdered paint of the present invention has excellent adhesiveness and gives enamel-like fine finish and a high-performance coating film which has a hard surface having a high transition point of from 60� to 65� C., is excellent in resistance to weather and corrosion and electrical characteristics and further it can be subjected to after-processing such as bending or pressing.
The following examples further illustrate the present invention.
0.05% by weight of a green dye was mixed with a polyethylene iso-terephthalate polymer powder having an average particle size of 60 μ, containing 10 mol. % of copolymerized isophthalic acid component and having an intrinsic viscosity of 0.91. The mixture was thoroughly stirred, and introduced into the upper chamber of a fluidized bed. The fluidized bed was formed within a tank-shaped container which was divided into two compartments consisting of an upper chamber and a lower chamber by a perforated plate. The container was designed so that air was introduced from the lower chamber thereinto.
Air was introduced into the lower chamber and passed through the perforated plate into the powder layer of the upper chamber by means of a blower. The powder layer was expanded, while supported by air, to form a fluidized bed, whereby a material to be coated could be dipped without any resistance. A pipe (having a diameter of 15.9 mm, a thickness of 1 mm and a length of 200 mm; provided with a small hole at its one end so that it could be suspended by means of a wire) was previously heated at about 350� C. by means of a heating oven, removed therefrom and inserted into the fluidized bed. When the powder was brought into contact with the pipe, the powder was molten and adhered to the pipe. After 5 seconds, the pipe was removed. The resulting coating film flowed by thermal inertia and smoothed. Then the pipe was cooled with water to give a film of about 100 μ in thickness, said film being in an amorphous state. No pinholes were observed. The film on both outer and inner surfaces was uniform, and was neither cracked nor peeled even when the pipe was bent or broken.
The same material as that of Example 1 was introduced into an electrostatic spray coating apparatus. In this apparatus, the powder was electrically charged in such a manner that the polarity of the charged powder was made opposite to that of a material to be coated. The apparatus was provided with a powder gun. The powder was sprayed on the material to be coated by the action of air. The powder was electrically charged so that the powder was accumulated on the surface of the material to be coated by electrical attraction.
A zinc-plated pipe having a diameter of 76.3 mm, a length of 3 mm and a wall thickness of 3.6 mm, was rotatably supported by means of a jig. The powder material was sprayed on the pipe by means of the gun of the electrostatic spray coating apparatus. During spraying, the pipe was rotated so that the surface thereof was uniformly covered with the powder. Immediately after the completion of the spraying, the pipe was suspended within a furnace kept at 450� C. After three minutes, the pipe was removed. After the smoothness of the surface was confirmed, the pipe was cooled with water to give a film of about 80 μ in thickness, said film being in an amorphous state. No pinholes were observed. The resulting fine green, translucent film was excellent in adhesion, and not peeled off even when the pipe was subjected to a drilling operation.
The powder was classified to obtain particles having an average particle size of 30 μ or below. In a similar manner to that mentioned above, the particles were sprayed. After baking, the pipe was cooled by water to give film of about 40 μ in thickness. No pinholes were observed.
In conventional powder coating techniques, it was impossible to obtain a film free of any pinholes when the thickness of the film was 120 μ or below.
It is clear that the products of the present invention are also excellent in this respect.

Wisconsin Tourism & Visitor Guide
Welcome to Wisconsin!
This WorldWeb.com travel and tourism guide for Wisconsin, featuring hotels and other accommodations, tours, attractions, events, shopping and more, will help you plan a successful visit to the State of Wisconsin, U.S.A.
America's Dairyland, as Wisconsin is suitably nicknamed, is particularly famous for two things: cheese and beer. The rolling plains filled with cattle are unquestionably responsible for earning the state its reputation and status as a leader in dairy production. Milwaukee is Wisconsin's largest city, legendary for the tempting scent of malt seeping from its many breweries. Nearly one million people gather each year along the banks of Lake Michigan for Summerfesta live music and entertainment festival. The Wisconsin State Capitol in Madison, a stunning example of Roman Renaissance architecture, stands between Lake Mendota to the west and Lake Monona to the east. Green Bay is home to the NFL's oldest team, the Green Bay Packers. A trip to this city during football season would not be complete without taking in a game at Lambeau Field, or visiting the Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame. Although the wilderness of North Wisconsin is vast and sparsely populated (the largest city is Eau Claire), it does offer plenty of recreation for outdoor enthusiasts, as well as the National Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame in Hayward.

The run support helped, too. Christian Friedrich continued his string of mostly impressive starts tonight to lead the Padres to a 7-2 victory over the Braves. Those two runs were allowed over 6.2 innings of work on six hits and two walks. He was backed up by an offensive outburst fronted by Yangervis Solarte. He was one of four Friars with multi-hit games. Atlanta drew first blood, with Ender Inciarte starting the game by drawing a leadoff walk. A single and a ground out sent him around the bases, but the Braves would only have the lead for a short while. In the bottom half of the first,...

Hello. You might also post in the retouching forum for ideas, but here's mine.
I'd get Lightroom 4 which most people find sufficient for about 90+% of post processing work. Then I'd keep your current product for pixel-level work, or another pixel editor for the rest.

Last season, Kelly Clark, who is known for flying higher out of the halfpipe than any of her competitors, won nearly every contest she entered. This season, she started off with wins at the Burton Open in New Zealand and at the first Grand Prix Olympic qualifier in Copper in December. By the time she arrived in Mammoth for the second Grand Prix contest of the season, it seemed she couldn't get any higher. But with a second Grand Prix win Wednesday afternoon, Clark became the first U.S. athlete to qualify for the Olympic team -- her third-straight. She was so overwhelmed with excitement, she looked like she just might float away. "I couldn't be happier with my result today and it's a privilege to be
going to my third Olympic Games," she said.
Hannah Teter, the 2006 Olympic gold medalist, finished second. Teter had to withdraw from the first qualifier in December after injuring her shoulder in prelims, but looked poised to make a run at her second Olympic team. "I feel really good," said Teter. "It's nice to come back after having a slight injury in the first Grand Prix. I've been doing a lot of visualizing, and seeing everything in my head then just putting it out on the snow."
Rounding out the women's podium was Australian rider Holly Crawford. Gretchen Bleiler, who finished second at the first stop in Mammoth, took fourth, but earned third-place points.
On the men's side, Danny Davis won his first Grand Prix contest of the season. His run included two double corks and a double backside roadeo and was being called the greatest run in snowboarding history. "It's hard to imagine where halfpipe riding will go next," says Davis. "Last season just having a double in a halfpipe run would have won it, now we're doing three in a single run. I'm hoping that I can keep up this level for the weekend and into the next Dew Tour, but even more that I'll ride again with Kevin soon."
Shaun White, who also landed a stellar run, took second, Scotty Lago finished third and Louie Vito took fourth. "There was some great riding today," White says. "This was by far the heaviest contest I've ever been in and being at the top with one run to go, I pulled the trigger and went for it."
The next halfpipe qualifier will take place in Mammoth on Saturday afternoon.
Davis or White could become the next athlete to qualify for the Olympic team with a win.

Lebanon's army said on Friday it was stepping up security at religious sites and other public places over the Muslim Eid al-Fitr holiday after a spate of kidnappings in Beirut and protests which blocked the airport road.
"Army units started taking exceptional security measures in the vicinity of religious places, main roads, shopping areas and tourist attractions," the army said in a statement.
A Lebanese Shi'ite clan kidnapped 20 Syrians and a Turkish businessman this week, saying it was holding them to secure the release of a relative captured by Syrian rebels in Damascus.
Sectarian tensions are already running high in Lebanon over the uprising in neighbouring Syria, where mainly Sunni Muslim rebels are seeking to overthrow President Bashar al-Assad, whose Alawite sect is an offshoot of Shi'ite Islam.
Eleven Shi'ite Lebanese men have been held in northern Syria by Syrian rebels for more than three months. Families of the captives burned tyres and blocked the Beirut airport road on Wednesday night after reports that some of their relatives had been wounded in a government air strike.

Port Angeles mill suffers little damage from fire

"It was not major," said Clarence Knutson, mill manager.
The sawdust in the ductwork was from green wood, which is not as combustible as dry sawdust from seasoned wood, Knutson said.
"If you walked into the mill this morning, you couldn't tell anything happened, except for some water on the floor," he said.
No injuries were reported after the 6:36 p.m. Wednesday fire at the mill at 333 Eclipse Industrial Parkway.
Caught in trimmer
A chunk of wood was caught in the trimmer, causing a friction fire that got into the venting system's ductwork, Knutson said.
Mill workers attempted to put out the fire but didn't have the equipment necessary to get at the flames in the ducting, he said.
The Port Angeles Fire Department arrived with 10 firefighters, an engine, a ladder truck and a medical unit, said Fire Capt. Jamie Mason.
Firefighters saw smoke and embers coming from ducting inside one of the mill structures, he said, and extended hoses up to the equipment in an attempt to gain access to the seat of the fire.
Mill workers helped by cutting access into the machinery and providing the use of a lift.
Firefighters used about 250 gallons of water to extinguish the ducting fire and were on-scene for about 90 minutes, Mason said.
Personnel from Clallam County Fire District No. 2 also assisted at the fire and provided firefighters to cover the main Port Angeles station in case of other calls.
"Props to the fire department. Their response was very quick," Knutson said.
This fire was part of a very busy three-day period for the Port Angeles Fire Department, Mason said.
From Sunday night through late Wednesday, the department responded to 52 calls for service, he said.

The term equity is synonymous with the term stock. Throughout your preparation for this exam, and on the exam itself, you will find many terms that are used interchangeably. Equity or stock creates an ownership relationship with the issuing company. Once an investor has purchased stock in a corporation they become an owner of that corporation. The corporation sells off pieces of itself to investors in the form of shares in an effort to raise working capital. Equity is perpetual, meaning there is no maturity date for the shares and the investor may own the shares until they decide to sell them. Most corporations use the sale of equity as their main source of business capital.
Common Stock
There are thousands of companies whose stock trades publicly and who have used the sale of equity as a source of raising business capital. All publicly traded companies must issue common stock before they may issue any other type of equity security. There are two types of equity securities, common stock and preferred stock. While all publicly traded companies must have sold or issued common stock, not all companies may want to issue or sell preferred stock. Let's take a look at the creation of a company and how common stock is created.

Forever Not Is The App That Let's You Gamble On Love
Photo: Courtesy of Forever Not.
If you've ever had a burning desire to bet on whether or not your friends' relationships will last, now you can. The brand-new app Forever Not allows users to swipe left or right to indicate whether or not they think couples they know will make it to the altar, or wind up burning photographs of one another in a sea of rage and resentment. If you swipe left, go get fitted for a suit. Swipe right, and get your shoulder ready, because it's about to get cried on.
The app finds couples you know by linking to your Facebook, working much in the same way that Tinder does. But, one of the most difficult things to do is tell your friend that their relationship is doomed. Luckily, Forever Not lets you wish them well or cast your doubt in total anonymity.
And, since the idea of voting against your friends' love feels inherently wrong, Forever Not also intersperses celebrity couples to help lighten the mood. We just weighed in on Kim and Kanye, and it was so much fun. Now it's you're turn. (Business Insider)

I might be a week late with these, but here's proof that I did make Christmas cookies! 🙂
I excitedly drew up plans (which I did deviate from a bit) on my lunch break one day, and went to work the week before Christmas on these bad boys!
I was so excited to use pearl dust for the tree trunks. I mixed a little bit with some vodka, and just painted it on after the flood icing dried. It leaves a really pretty shimmery finish!
If you're curious about the recipes and techniques that I use to make these happen, check out my tutorial here.
I'm pretty much a novice when it comes to cheesecake making. The first cheesecake I made was about a month ago for a potluck, and since then, I've been wanting to do this again! When the opportunity came up, I definitely knew which recipe to try. This time around I made this cheesecake, because I had heard so many raving reviews about Dorie Greenspan's cheesecake recipe in Baking From My Home to Yours.
So, I made this cheesecake, simply plain and brought it to the potluck. People LOVED it, as did I. Unfortunately, this was my first water bath experience and somehow water got in there, so the crust was a little soggy. I did, however, make this again Christmas Day, wrapping more layers of foil very carefully, and the crust was perfect!
Tall and Creamy Cheesecake
Source: Baking From My Home to Yours
For the crust:
1 3/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
3 tablespoons sugar
Pinch of salt
1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
For the cheesecake:
2 pounds (four 8-ounce boxes) cream cheese, at room temperature
1 1/3 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
4 large eggs, at room temperature
1 1/3 cups sour cream or heavy cream, or a combination of the two (I used heavy cream)
To make the crust:
- Butter a 9-inch springform pan—choose one that has sides that are 2 3/4 inches high (if the sides are lower, you will have cheesecake batter leftover)—and wrap the bottom of the pan in a double layer of aluminum foil; put the pan on a baking sheet.
- Stir the crumbs, sugar and salt together in a medium bowl. Pour over the melted butter and stir until all of the dry ingredients are uniformly moist. Turn the ingredients into the buttered springform pan and use your fingers to pat an even layer of crumbs along the bottom of the pan and about halfway up the sides (I like to use a round glass to make it flat.). Don't worry if the sides are not perfectly even or if the crumbs reach above or below the midway mark on the sides—this doesn't have to be a precision job. Put the pan in the freezer while you preheat the oven.
- Center a rack in the oven, preheat the oven to 350°F and place the springform on a baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes. Set the crust aside to cool on a rack while you make the cheesecake.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F.
To make the cheesecake:
- Put a kettle of water on to boil (or microwave water in a bowl).
- Working in a stand mixer, preferably fitted with a paddle attachment, or with a hand mixer in a large bowl, beat the cream cheese at medium speed until it is soft and lives up to the creamy part of its name, about 4 minutes. With the mixer running, add the sugar and salt and continue to beat another 4 minutes or so, until the cream cheese is light. Beat in the vanilla. Add the eggs one by one, beating for a full minute after each addition—you want a well-aerated batter. Reduce the mixer speed to low and stir in the sour cream and/or heavy cream.
- Put the foil-wrapped springform pan in the roaster pan.
- Give the batter a few stirs with a rubber spatula, just to make sure that nothing has been left unmixed at the bottom of the bowl, and scrape the batter into the springform pan. The batter will reach the brim of the pan. (If you have a pan with lower sides and have leftover batter, you can bake the batter in a buttered ramekin or small soufflé mold.) Put the roasting pan in the oven and pour enough boiling water into the roaster to come halfway up the sides of the springform pan.
- Bake the cheesecake for 1 hour and 30 minutes, at which point the top will be browned (and perhaps cracked) and may have risen just a little above the rim of the pan. Turn off the oven's heat and prop the oven door open with a wooden spoon. Allow the cheesecake to luxuriate in its water bath for another hour.
- After 1 hour, carefully pull the setup out of the oven, lift the springform pan out of the roaster—be careful, there may be some hot water in the aluminum foil—remove the foil. Let the cheesecake come to room temperature on a cooling rack.
- When the cake is cool, cover the top lightly and chill the cake for at least 4 hours, although overnight would be better.
A couple of weeks ago, I went to a local nestie GTG to meet up with some gals that I "talk" to on the forums. There was so much food to be had there, and I made sure to try a little bit of everything. One of the nesties brought these little bars, and WOW are these bars just amazing! She insisted that they were super easy to make, and boy, were they! I made a batch of these to include in the family holiday tins, and of course, snuck a few bars for me as well. 🙂

Ever since I found out that you could make your own marshmallows, I wanted to make them. The problem? I had a cheap hand mixer before our KA mixer. Now that we had the KA mixer, I had nothing holding me back from making these.
These are delicious, light and have a subtle peppermint flavor. I'm definitely putting the leftover ones from the gift tins in some hot chocolate ASAP.
Peppermint Marshmallows
Source: adapted from Alton Brown
- 3 packages unflavored gelatin
- 1 cup ice cold water, divided
- 12 ounces granulated sugar, approximately 1 1/2 cups
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon mint extract
- 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- non-stick spray
- Place the gelatin into the bowl of a stand mixer along with 1/2 cup of the water. Have the whisk attachment standing by.
- In a small saucepan combine the remaining 1/2 cup water, granulated sugar, corn syrup and salt. Place over medium high heat, cover and allow to cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Uncover, clip a candy thermometer onto the side of the pan and continue to cook until the mixture reaches 240 degrees F, approximately 7 to 8 minutes. Once the mixture reaches this temperature, immediately remove from the heat.
- Turn the mixer on low speed and, while running, slowly pour the sugar syrup down the side of the bowl into the gelatin mixture. Once you have added all of the syrup, increase the speed to high. Continue to whip until the mixture becomes very thick and is lukewarm, approximately 12 to 15 minutes. Add the vanilla during the last minute of whipping. While the mixture is whipping prepare the pans as follows.
- Combine the confectioners' sugar and cornstarch in a small bowl. Lightly spray a 13 by 9-inch metal baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Add the sugar and cornstarch mixture and move around to completely coat the bottom and sides of the pan. Return the remaining mixture to the bowl for later use.
- When ready, pour the mixture into the prepared pan, using a lightly oiled spatula for spreading evenly into the pan. To get red striping, add drops of red food coloring to the mixture in the pan and quickly swirl the coloring in. Dust the top with enough of the remaining sugar and cornstarch mixture to lightly cover. Reserve the rest for later. Allow the marshmallows to sit uncovered for at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
- Turn the marshmallows out onto a cutting board and cut into 1-inch squares using a pizza wheel dusted with the confectioners' sugar mixture. Once cut, lightly dust all sides of each marshmallow with the remaining mixture, using additional if necessary. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks.
Gingerbread is one of those cookies that is just a standard to have during the holidays. They are spicy, chewy and can be cut in cute holiday shapes! My siblings and I used to get the Little Debbie gingerbreads and fight over them at the house. 🙂
I decided to include these in my coworker's baked goodies tins because they looked easy and it was something new to bake. Being that I've never worked with molasses, I have to admit, I thought it was going to smell like brown sugar or something similar. No way folks…this has a very different smell than imagined. In fact, I thought I had a batch of bad molasses, but I kept going with the recipe and it turns out that molasses do indeed smell unpleasant normally.
This recipe is easy to work with and yields a delicious gingerbread cookie. You will not be disappointed at all.
Rolled Gingerbread Cookies
Source: Cookie Craft
- 5 cups all purpose flour
- 2 tsp. ground ginger
- 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp. ground cloves
- 1/2 tsp. baking soda (if using this recipe to make a gingerbread house, omit the baking soda)
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- zest of one orange
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup molasses
- Cream together the butter and sugar for 2 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add the egg and molasses and mix until blended.
- Put the flour, spices, baking soda, salt and orange zest in a medium bowl and whisk mixture together.
- With the mixer on low, gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture until the two are well blended.
- Put the dough in 3 even portions, formed into a rough disk and chill the dough in the fridge for a few hours.
- When you are ready to bake the dough, preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Cut the dough into desired shapes and place on a parchment/Silpat lined cookie sheet. ( I dipped one side of the cookie in sprinkles before placing on the cookie sheet.)
- Bake in the middle rack of your oven for 12-16 minutes for larger cookies; 7-9 minutes for smaller cookies or until the dough darkens a little along the edges.
- Cool cookies completely for decorating.
Makes about 36 3″ sized cookies, which equates to almost one double batch of sugar cookies.

Coworkers are typically difficult to buy for. In college, I would really only buy for fellow female student coworkers. It was easy…Starbucks gift cards, bath stuff, etc. When I graduated and got thrown into the real world, I was introduced to working in a primarily male field. I can't shop for males, at all. I have enough trouble shopping for my husband, father and brother! So, I started making edible gifts.
Last year, I bought cute Christmas chinese take-out boxes and put decorated sugar cookies, oreo truffles and chocolate covered pretzels in them. This year, I branched out from those ideas just a little bit.
I had my first adventures of making homemade peppermint marshmallows. The KA definitely was put to use here! I couldn't have even fathomed making these last year with a $10 hand mixer.
Another recipe from Cookie Craft that I've been wanting to try is their rolled gingerbread cookies. These did not disappoint.
Of course, the oreo truffles made an appearance, and this time, instead of putting a bunch in one bag, I bought cutesy Christmas foils to wrap them in!
Adorable right? I love you Hobby Lobby.
Of course, here is a small picture of the packaging in action. I will say my kitchen was a big ol' mess after this, but it was worth it! My coworkers seemed to love the goodies. Of course, the easiest recipe (oreo truffles) became the hit of the gifts!

This past weekend, I made red velvet cupcakes for a local nestie GTG. I was so excited to make these from scratch for the first time, and so, I enlisted the help from another southern gal, Paula Deen. Sadly, Paula Deen let me down with some dry, flavorless red velvet cupcakes. I was a little embarrassed to bring these, since I hate presenting flop recipes to anyone, but I didn't have time or ingredients to try again! So, what's a girl to do? Make them look pretty!
I decided to make a simple cream cheese frosting (block of cream cheese, stick of butter, vanilla extract and powdered sugar until you get the right texture). Then, I colored the batch red and green. You know where this is going…
Yep, I wanted to swirl colors. Let me tell you..the pastry bag and I usually have a good fight over getting icing in the bag without getting it all over the top of the bag, my hands, etc. So, I found this tip on Cake Central's forums about how to swirl with wayy less mess! Let me tell you…get your saran wrap ready, because you will want to make everything swirl colors after seeing how easy this is!
First, place a good sized sheet of saran wrap on your counter and plop icing in the center.
Roll the saran wrap into a thin log, cutting off excess wrap on the ends.
Slip the two colors (or three if you so dare) in the pastry bag, and squeeze icing out until the colors all appear.
Then, pipe!
Easy peasy swirl colors without the mess! 🙂

Her work is so beautiful and creative. The items in her shop are so cute, and it almost makes me want to fork out the needles and yarn again to get to work on making cute things. Unfortunately, time is not in my favor right now, so those things will have to wait.
My Three Blind Mice is offering all readers 10% off anything in her shop if you mention the code "nifty" in an Etsy conversation. She'll then give you the discount via Paypal! Awesome!
And, even though there is no giveaway for this shop, you **might** want to leave some comments about what you like from her shop, because there **might** be a surprise from me next week for those who do. 🙂 I just like to keep things interesting and sneaky…
Have a good weekend!
Another classic that just screams Thanksgiving for my family is my mom's sweet potato casserole. I made it a little lighter by using products from Splenda, and wow, was it delicious!
