Chicken Soup & Apples for K

Every so often my friend K will need a recipe, and I will get an email that allows me to be a superhero sans tights. But hey, why wouldn't you love a friend who puffs up your ego just a bit?

In September it was Chicken Soup (she loved the Mexican Lime Chicken Soup):

Today it was apples:

• Betty's Apple Crisp (I will admit that ever since I got my first red Betty my sophomore year of college, I hate being without her--she is my most consistent cooking instructor/buddy): http://www.bettycrocker.com/recipes.aspx/apple-crisp
• I know, don't look at the wallpaper, but it really is amazing for something from a chain restaurant: http://recipecircus.com/recipes/gijane/DESSERTS/Maggiano39s_Warm_Apple_Crostata.html
• I love a good apple pie that you don't need a pie plate for--have it with cinnamon or dulce de leche ice cream and you are set! http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/apple-crostata-recipe/index.html
• Southern Apple Pie: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/paula-deen/paula-deen-savannah-high-apple-pie-recipe/index.html
• This is a bread, but boy is it tasty: http://www.fostersmarket.com/recipes.php?recipe_id=47

What have you been dying for a recipe for? Should we have a "Dear Prudie"-like post that answers everyone's food dilemmas or recipe needs every month? It is definitely something to think about.
