SUPER-GARLIC BUTTER FLAVORED POPCORN
We love popcorn at our house and not the stuff that comes in a microwavable bag. We use a hot air popcorn popper and then have fun with our flavors. This recipe is soo good, especially if you are a garlic lover. I crave this, I do! Sometimes I will throw in some freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Mmmm. From Cooks Illustrated.

BIG BATCH PUMPKIN BREAD WITH FLAVORED BUTTER VARIATIONS
I found this in an old cookbook my mom gave me. It has worked for me every time I have made it, and it makes 3 loaves at a time, so it is the recipe I have stuck with. I make lots of pumpkin bread in the fall, but I give most of it away. This freezes well, it's great for gifts. This also smells heavenly when it is baking. The flavored butters are great on the warm bread.
