* 2016-03-22 [http://ohsheglows.com/2014/10/02/10-spice-vegetable-soup-freezer-friendly-vegan-gluten-free/ 10 spice vegetable soup], tripled.  It made a *huge* amount of food, two nearly-full pots!  It was OK, actually it got better over time, I think after sitting an hour it became great; but I still wouldn't make again.  We used some fresh tomatoes, and bought a little too much cashews, but otherwise we pretty close to the recipe.  We also made garlic-pepper-rosemary-olive oil bread, which was great, would do the pepper again!
* 2016-03-16 [http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/2835667/jerk-sweet-potato-and-black-bean-curry Jerk Sweet Potato and Black Bean Curry], a repeat, doubled.  Amazing as always, but I think our Jerk spice is getting a bit old - still lots of flavor, but no kick.  Should buy some new stuff next time I make this. The juice of one lemon was also added, and really balanced the sweetness of the yams with the earthy jerk spice mix well. Also, for dessert, [http://www.vegrecipesofindia.com/banana-bread-eggless-vegan-recipe/ vegan banana bread], 1.5x, but I think I added too much oil and too little flour in my informal 1.5x-ing, it ended up dense and kind of pudding like even after extra 15 minutes in oven...

* 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.
