Rena Imes’ Southern Living Shrimp Scampi
This is a simple recipe I found in a Southern Living cookbook that I have had for years. Every time I make this my husband gobbles it up in no time flat. Although the recipe calls for 1 cup of butter I would suggest 1/2 or 3/4 cup because this just seems like a lot of butter to me. Because I loooooove garlic I use 8 or 9 cloves of it. I would suggest using fresh garlic cloves and not the freeze dried ones as they tend to burn easily. If you don't have the time or the patience to devein shrimp you can definitely use the the fully cooked shrimp just remember they only need to cook for about 1-2 minutes. -- posted by renaimes

Pizza Butter
From my Bread Maker's Bible, this looks like a very neat spread. The book recommended it to spread it on English muffins, add your favorite toppings, then put under your toaster's broiler until bubbly. Mmm. I halved it from the original recipe since even halving it makes a LOT, but apparently has a decent shelf life in the fridge. -- posted by the80srule
Pan De Meurete (Bread of the Dead) or Sugar Skull Cake
From my Bread Maker's Bible, this looks like a really cool and extravagant sweet bread. It immediately conjured up images of festivities and sugar skulls to me so a quick Googling revealed that this bread is traditionally baked in Mexico in the weeks preceding Dia de los Muertos (11/2.) It is often decorated with bone-like pieces, so raid the Halloween clearance for bone sprinkles! Book recommends pink sugar crystals. See Recipe #429187 for how to hydrate dried orange rind or make your own zest! -- posted by the80srule
