You've made it to Friday, which means it's time to treat yourself to a roundup of links we love. Go ahead, procrastinate a little.

A mashup of all the best pasta sauces -- tomato, asparagus, and carbonara -- with surprisingly harmonious results.

Rhurbarb takes a walk on the savory side, and gets paired with succulent, seared lamb chops.

It's that time again -- help us pick the contest finalists for Your Best Barbecue!

Biscuits and scones can take on flavors sweet and savory, can be shot through with the essence of spring, can filled with fruits or vegetables or cheese. Pour yourself a cup of tea -- it's time to experiment (and devour).
