I made NYT's Miso Pecan Banana Bread this morning, only with walnuts and less sugar. Three small loaves, extremely tasty and nice to have in the freezer.

LiquorMart had Smirnoff Espresso Vodka for 5 bucks today. I'm not a big fan of commercial flavored vodkas, but at that price figured they'd work for Mudslides or something. Recipes and suggestions appreciated!

Hello, New member here, with a limoncello question. I've made it successfully for years, never keeping notes but just grabbing a recipe off the internet, with vodka or everclear, and it's always been fine. A friend sent me a lovely box of Meyer lemons and I was thrilled. Surely, this will be the best batch yet! I resolved to be patient with steeping. The liquid (I used vodka this time) never really took on a true deep yellow color. After 6-8 weeks, I added syrup and aged for another month. What I got was "NumberTwoPencilCello." Not bitter, or horrible, but definitely woody-tasting. It was drinkable in iced tea, but not something I'd serve straight or give to friends. Any suggestions on where I went wrong? Lemons are yellow, number two pencils are yellow ... I got nothin. Thanks!
