Vegetable help!

I need to take a vegetable contribution to a meal that is also going to consist of roast pork and some sort of potatoes. It has to be able to be cooked first at home, then transported and re-heated, and it cannot contain dairy ingredients. Any ideas?

Spn pimping!

So I wanted to pimp this Spn Flashfic community -- spnflashfic -- which does a week-long challenge every week, yay! Fic!

Also, I wrote fic! For the current challenge: Hidden Talents.

Maraschino. :-)

Help me ID cookies!!!

There were these cookies my grandmother used to give us when we were kids. Actually, they were more like a UK biscuit, I think. They weren't all that sweet. They were quite thin and came in fairly large slabs, and were sort of like Fig Newtons except that they were thinner and the layers sandwiching the fruit layer was drier and less cakey. The fruit layer was thicker and stickier than Fig Newton's fig filling (but it might have been fig, or maybe date? something brown.) Again, they were not sweet. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

ETA - sheafrotherdon IDed them as "Golden Fruit" cookies, an American version of Garibaldi biscuits.
