Hi. I feel silly asking this...

I recently bought a horseshoe shaped cake pan, and it says I should use two layer cake mix. How is this different from just using regular cake mix? Do I have to buy more than one box or something, or are some cake mixes consider a 2 layer cake mix? I'm just used to making a regular cake. I've never experimented with different cake pan shapes and such.

Any help's appreciated. Thanks.

I'd also really like to bring the recipes we make, although that isn't necessarily important.

I would like a tried & true recipe (or two) for an easy to make snack that is also yummy. If it travels well, that would be a big help. Thanks a lot.

I am looking for a great recipe for biscuits that are puffy and moist. I dont want any cheese or anything added, just a plain old biscuit recipe. I have one but the biscuits seem like they are missing something and they dont get real puffy. Any ideas why? The batter seems a bit loose maybe to much fluid?

I am making a shrimp and linguine dish and I noticed that the recipe called for refrigerated linguine. Can I just use regular boxed linguine or do you think that refrigerated linguine is better? I don't know if my grocer would have this and since I have to cook it anyway, I didn't think it would really matter. Thanks a head of time!

PS: I provided a link below for the recipe I will be using.

Why do they only sell parsley in bunches that are so big an average family wouldn't use it in a year?

I always buy these big bunches, use what the recipe calls for, usually a quarter cup or so, and end up throwing the rest away.

Any good ideas for the rest of the parsley?

I am making 'Field Salad' to serve at the wedding... it calls for mixed salad greens, which I will add spinach to; toasted walnuts; green apples; raspberry-walnut vinaigrette dressing; and gorgonzola cheese... I have never eaten gorg. but many people say it is strong and may be an acquired taste, but this salad got a lot of rave reviews at allrecipes.com.

I am not a cheese aficionado so I don't know if it would be best to substitute the gorgonzola for something like feta, or goat cheese; I believe these would be a bit milder. I also thought about blue cheese but I know a lot of people don't like this either... Trying to please a diverse crowd of about 40 people... WDYT?

A friend of mine is in the hospital, and will be for the next month or so. She has a family of 3 at home. I need some new ideas for meals. I've already made spaghetti, chicken enchiladas and a full meal of cornish game hens. I'd like to make a couple of things that they can just pull out of the freezer, and one they can use right away. Can you give me some other ideas? Thanks all, you always come through for me.

My boyfriend just got his 1st job out of law school and is hosting a dinner at his condo for one of his boss (who are somewhat younger, maybe mid 30's). I know he's making some fancy salmon dish for dinner. I actually am an attorney as well so i'm going to have a very small amount of time to both get ready and/or prepare dessert. Please help...
