Today I spent about an hour trying to remember…

you know, that designer and architect
B something
Bee hive something something
what was his name!
…
Oh yeah, it's Peter Behrens. (And you know what, I'm grateful for reference books, because not even the index of the internet could help me find the answer.)

Want to pretty-up your Thanksgiving dinner meats? Puff pastry!
Warning: cooked puff pastry gets extra puffy, so plan your design accordingly (margin of puff error?)
Puff pastry (from Trader Joe's) comes in frozen flat sheets. It's easy to work with, has that perfect flakey texture, and even tastes great alone. Here's some tips on how to use it for quickie appetizers. (In college my friend Maggie would wrap gouda slices in Pillsbury crescent rolls, delish! I'm going to sub the tubed dough for Puff and see if I can recreate the treats.)
