* 2016-03-11 For Pie Day / 100 member party: [http://allrecipes.com/recipe/12682/apple-pie-by-grandma-ople/ Apply Pie by Grandma Ople], [http://allrecipes.com/recipe/12077/chocolate-chip-pie-i/?internalSource=recipe%20hub&referringId=791&referringContentType=recipe%20hub Chocolate Chip Pie I] and [https://www.hersheys.com/recipes/en_US/recipes/6798/hersheys-gone-to-heaven-chocolate-pie.html Hershies Gone to Heaven Chocolate Pie].  The apple pie was simple and incredible, just like the 6800 reviews(!) claimed. I think I would try adding cinnamon/nutmeg next time.  The two chocolate pies were sweet as expected but unexceptional. 
* 2016-03-08 [http://cookieandkate.com/2014/spicy-roasted-ratatouille-with-spaghetti/ spicy roasted ratatouille] doubled, a repeat from a few months ago, plus garlic bread. Wasn't as good this time, I think last time we used more tomatoes and added some tomatoe paste as well, it was a bit more watery this time.  Also, I learned that apparently you don't have to peal acorn squash, which is awesome since it's so much work and so wasteful to do so.  Eats fine, though it does change the taste in a slightly negative way, I think.  Finally, double wasn't nearly enough tonight - could have done quadruple, though it would not have all fit in the pot.  Food was totally gone at like 8pm, even though we served late at 7:30!

* 2016-03-01 [http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/parkers-split-pea-soup-recipe.html Parker's Split Pea Soup] doubled, and [http://www.vegrecipesofindia.com/banana-bread-eggless-vegan-recipe/ Vegan Banana Bread] for dessert.  The pea soup is surprisingly great, would make again!  Should triple for a regular night - only doubled tonight since it was stormy, that worked out well.
