Substitute for Heavy Cream
 2/3 of a cup  of whole milk 
1/3 cup melted butter (unsalted would be best unless you have a savory application in mind)

Mix them well. This will give you 1 cup heavy cream equivalent. 
Gay's Note: I haven't actually tried this, but it seems reasonable. 

Paula Deen's House Seasoning
I make this in quantity and use it in or on just about everything. Except dessert!
This is a ratio thing. You can make it in any quantity, large or small, by following this proportion:

4 parts salt
1 part ground black pepper
1 part garlic powder

Mix ingredients together and there you go. I have this in a large kitchen shaker for cooking, as well as small shakers for use at the table.

Note: This will tend to clump up in humid weather. Just stir it a little and it will be shake-able again.
