Since you all seem so bored & in need of something to do this St.
Valentine's Day, here is a scavenger hunt game for you.

Rules:
Find cited references to answer the questions. (No need to type the whole
recipe, just give the recipe title, source, & pertinent part of the recipe.)
Give yourself one point for each recipe source found. Multiple citations
count for extra points.
Recipes without proper citation don't count.
Person with highest total points wins.
