Cooking (cuss chefs need love too)
First and foremost:
BREAD!!! I mean, it's a staple of any healthy diet, it gives a good use for flour and yeast, and will be a base for some of the things on down the list.
The Rest:
Sammiches: I mean noms central there. All the current meats can be used along with a few other things. simple to implement when all you have to do is have one icon and just change the center to match the type.
Cookies and Cakes: Everyone has a sweet tooth. Sugar is already in the game. They can be variations on the bread recipe
Salad: Never can go wrong with a bit of iceberg and veggies. Granted, you'll have to add lettuce, but you'll make all the vegans and vegetarians happy

Cheese: Mostly for sammiches, but good just to munch. Mite need to spawn a mouse raid if too much is stockpiled

Butter: The saturated fat of kings. Needs the addition of a butter churn. Necessary for the classic grilled cheese sammich. Also for lots of other things like topping the next entry.
POPYCORN!!!! No explanation needed.
Pasta: Simple to make. Useful as hell. Plus, I want my Mac n Cheese please.
Silver uses:
I have to say that silver is one of if not the most useless metal in the game so far. A few ideas may help that problem.
Enchanting Armor: Using a few bars of silver with a scroll and a piece of armor to enchant it. I have no idea on how to balance this concept in game but the idea is there. Plus i would thing it would give the armor a nice silver pinstripe in it to make it look just that much cooler. Even if this form of enchanting is a no, the ability to customize your armor aesthetically would be worth it.
Enchanting Armor Mk.2: A few bars of silver plus a spell scroll and bottle of flax seed oil to make a either temporary or permanent buff to your armor.
Potions: Silver can be used as a base for alchemical potions. Would require the addition of herbs and such. That way all magic would not rely on solely on spell scrolls. There are things in the natural world that can do wonderful things as well

Jewellery: A player ain't a player without some bling bling. In all seriousness though, it would add use for the gems, gold and silver. They should also be enchant able so that players have more customization in what they can do or ability to make up for shortfalls in their skills.
Misc. Thoughts:
Me and lance both think that the colored street lamps is way too heavy. The purple lamps on are farm for example, If i stand next to them, it becomes a pain to see what is directly under them. The light spread is good, but the color should be a tint not a cloud. More akin to the wall sconces.
Speaking of lamps. What powers them? Magic? Fusion? Dont Ask, Dont Tell? Rainbows? The Ponies you never give us? I demand answers!!!!
We need to be able to make bridges. Period.
Side facing fence gates. Sorry to beat a dead horse but hey, I'm gonna bug yo till i get em. Speaking of horses........
Horses. Not necessarily to ride but they would be neat to have on the farm.
Coffee. I know this should be in food but i didn't think of it till now. Sue me. A good stamina restoring drink.
Mines. There should be a way for players to dig their own with a random assortment of ores. But that can come more towards the end of beta.
Larger instances. Our mine and crypt are comparatively tiny. We need space to get lost and need the homing conch to get home. I don't know if a GM can change the instance size since i don't run a sever, but it would be a good idea to allow it so people can make the Underdark if they so choose.
