"Having 4 cats, I'm always looking for non-toxic, inexpensive ways to clean up those hairball accidents. I tried this mixture on a spot on the carpet and I could not believe how clean it became! I'm going to have to slide a rug over the new clean spot or else do the whole carpet so it matches, LOL!I also added the rest of it to a load of whites, ..."

"Delicious and easy weeknight supper! I made 3 chops but used the same amount of ingredients for the marinade and sauce ... I wasn't sure which wine to use, so I just used a red, and I didn't have sweet and sour sauce so I used 3 tbsp. 100% fruit apricot preserves + 1 tbsp. cider vinegar. Since my chops were about 3/8" thick, I cooked them a little..."

"Excellent mushrooms with just the right amount of heat! I sort of halved the recipe (using an 8-oz. carton of mushrooms and prepared everything else to the letter. I ate the whole thing myself then wished I had more, LOL! I wasn't sure about the whole "butter separating from the sauce" idea, but as the dish cooks, you see it happen. The mushrooms..."

"This is a great, quick salad and makes a nice vegetarian lunch. It's just so easy! I like the sour cream instead of mayo - more "tangy" and less "greasy". I used a sweet pickle relish because I figured that my fiance would want some and he doesn't like dilly-garlicky pickles, but if I make it just for myself, I'm going to use the dilly kind, and I..."

"The sauce smelled so wonderful while it was simmering that I ate this dish while it was hot! This is really, really good (and yes, it makes an awesome hot pasta dish, too! I started with a nice can of tuna from the natural foods co-op and used about half of the linguine called for. To save time (since I was supposed to be helping the fiance pla..."

"These are delicious! I love the combination of flavors - these really perk up a spinach salad! As usual, I added probably twice as much cilantro as called for, and actually, I forgot that they were on the counter and they sat out at room temperature overnight - but they were still awesome. I'm thinking of using a white onion next time and then usi..."

"The best way I can describe this is as a not-so-sweet teriyaki sauce with a twist. The interesting thing about Silent Cricket's recipes is that it's difficult to identify the ingredients - her dishes blend together SO well. Like riffraff, I made half a recipe so I could make Silent Cricket's Peanut Sauce; but now I wish I had made more. I'm going ..."

"Very rich and delicious! Even my fiance, who doesn't normally like Asian-style peanut sauces, liked this one. I ate it with noodles, and used Silent Cricket's recipe for ketjap manis in the ingredients. Me, of all people, forgot to put the Tabasco in (unheard of!, but it was wonderful anyway. My only other problem was that I didn't really know ho..."

"This is so unique and refreshing. I love oranges, so this is heaven for me! I also love tamari and soba noodles! I dont' care for fish sauce though, so I just added a little more tamari for a substitute, and if you could see how many bottles of booze I have bought just for recipes and not drinking, you'll understand why I just used white wine in..."

"EXCELLENT! I love the cumin-coriander-turmeric combination, and the amount of peanut butter is just enough (I did the 6 tbsp.. I followed the recipe exactly except for the zucchini and bell peppers (I don't care for cooked peppers I used half an onion just because mine are large and strong; and I used half a jalapeno but wished I had used more ..."
