Question
I have the Grandma’s Kitchen recipe cards. I’ve lost a card that had a sauce recipe on it. It might be Beefy Tomato Pasta Sauce; I think the recipe had tomato soup and tomato juice in it. If you could look into this?

QuestionHey Betty, I once had your recipe for cinnamon buns but I misplaced it. If possible I would like to have it, through any method. I am serving breakfast this coming Saturday, so I will need it quickly. Also I had tried the recipe on a few occasions but the buns didn't seem to cook all the way through (they were so good they were eaten anyway though). Could you tell me how to correct this? Thanks. --AlexisMarch 2012

Question
Hi Denise,
My goodness, I didn’t realize there are so many people allergic to cinnamon! I had this very question a couple of weeks ago, but about Cinnamon-less Apple Pie. The advice there holds true for pumpkin pie as well: You can substitute another spice (like nutmeg or allspice), or simply omit the cinnamon.
And if you haven't finalized your menu yet, you might want to browse all my Thanksgiving Recipes!My boyfriend is allergic to cinnamon and he wants pumpkin pie. What can I use instead of cinnamon?

QuestionRecently every time I bake bread, it falls in the middle (very much like a cake that falls). What can I do to prevent this? Or, what could be causing it? --TerryMarch 2012
