There are so many things that I want to post on food for the month, but here it is already the last few days of May. I just have to add all my test recipes in the next few days when I am more relaxed. In the mean time, I am looking forward to June 4th and 5th. Sunset Magazine is hosting the Sunset Celebration Weekend. It is going to be held at Menlo Park -- at the Sunset Headquarters, 80 Willow Road, Menlo Park from 10 am to 5 pm. Great! Hope some of you can attend also.

Vanilla Beans
I ran out of 7 jars of Vanilla Paste that I have been using for my baking and especially for my Canneles de Bordeaux. While I have been hunting for the best possible price to replenish the vanilla paste, I decided to try the vanilla beans. While waiting for the arrival, I caught one of my recorded video on cooking channel.... Chef Sandra Lee, I believe was demonstrating how to make Open Apple Pie. One of the ingredients is the vanilla. She pointed out the vanilla beans that she is using has been soaked in the rum for two weeks. It gives a good flavor. So, I thought I would try. This is not a blog on how to make vanilla paste or whatever all the experienced foodies know how to. But to share the result of my rum soaked vanilla beans.
Hamburgers on Homebaked Buns
I am so happy with the result of this hamburger and hotdog buns. I think it was from one of the dear blogger -- gracekitchencorner.blogspot.com. I have been wanting to make my own hamburger or hotdog buns to find out how good it really suppose to taste. The storebought hamburger and hotdog buns are handy, but they always have this 'after taste' that I could not exactly put my fingers on. I just tolerated it all these years. 
This is a keeper recipe in my kitchen.
