Butter was on sale yesterday
bought 3 boxes and put 2 in the freezer, picked up that tip from some blog

some flavor combos ive been thinking of lately to try in baking:
white chocolate and orange... maybe http://www.thegalleygourmet.net/2011/04/strawberry-and-white-chocolate-mousse.html, maybe adapt this recipe with some orange marmalade or have some grand marnier and orange zest in the glaze
lime coconut, ooo tropical, its already summer here haha
saw artichokes at heb, never cooked one before, maybe some stuffed artichoke with parmesan  grueyere aioli?
