I'm not sure about everyone else, but three hours post dinner I'm totally stuffed and borderline incapable of forming coherent sentences. It's possible I'm a bit delirious. AND I'm trying to convince myself to wake up for an early morning jog/walk (this might be the delirium). Ah, Thanksgiving.
I'm super curious about your Thanksgiving dinner -- what did you make? Do you have any special traditions? I usually try new things each year and this time around was no exception. I prepared tiny little stuffed pumpkins:
Yum. I got the recipe from here and basically followed the guidelines which call for blue cheese and bread and fresh nutmeg, though I added caramelized onions. I also made, per my mom's request, an apple cranberry pie from Cook's Illustrated:
The recipe for this pie, which involves distinct layers of apple and cranberry can be found here. Finally, I made some salt and vinegar mashed potatoes, this time around using goat cheese as the main dairy component.
I hope everyone had an awesome and delicious day. My brother also says Happy Thanksgiving:
(as he hones his autopsy skills)
The pumpkins look delicious! I am dedicated to trying that recipe with acorn squash, mainly because I am too lazy to find minature pumpkins.
