Just the usual stuff here...but I know some folks have some unsual (for
T'giving) main courses and side dishes...

How about you?

Got an recipes to share?


We are all going to my daughter's house this year. (first time in 3 years
that we've been up north for T-day)
She is doing the turkey and trimmings thing. Mrs. E. is doing the lasagna
and chestnuts cooked in red wine. Her sister always shows up with squid
braised with tomatoes and white wine.

I'll start off with a Sam Adams.

Hmm... I'm not quite sure. This is my first thanksgiving since I purchased
the "needs some TLC", so I'll have to report back once we leave the soup
kitchen.

Well I'll contribute a recipe for you

Bailey's Irish Crème Cheesecake

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups chocolate wafers finely crushed
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 cup butter or margarine
3 (8 ounce) packages of softened cream cheese
1 1/4 cups white sugar
1/4 cup cocoa
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup Bailey's Irish Creme
Directions:

To Make Crust: Mix together the cookie crumbs, confectioners' sugar, and
cocoa.
Add melted butter or margarine and stir until well mixed.
Pat into the bottom of a 9 inch springform pan.

Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven for 10 minutes,
set aside.

Combine cream cheese, sugar, cocoa and flour,
mixing at medium speed with electric mixer until well blended.

Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Blend in the sour cream and Bailey's Irish Creme, mix on low until blended.
Pour over baked crust.

Bake at 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) for 10 minutes.
Reduce oven temperature to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C)
and continue baking for 60 minutes. Remove from oven.

With a knife, loosen cake from rim of pan, let cool then remove the rim
of pan.
Chill before serving. If your cake cracks, a helpful tip is to dampen a
spatula
and smooth the top and then sprinkle with some chocolate wafer crumbs.

Makes 1 - 9 inch Springform Pan

Enjoy!

This is my first thanksgiving since I purchased the "needs some TLC", so
I'll have to report back once we leave the soup kitchen.

Nope, nothing unusual, just the typical fare. I did meet a lot of fellow
boat owners, which was nice. Especially since the wife still isn't talking
to me (is this an unpublicized perk of boat ownership?).

Happy day after to all... happy digesting.

We're all normal here - like not having bait in wise sauce. ;)

The kids are starting to arrive, the oldest and his wife came in late
last night, the youngest has been here since last Friday, one of the
middle ones just arrived with his girlfriend and the next oldest is in
the process of arriving with her husband.

The noise level in the main house is starting to rise to totally
unacceptable levels, thus I am closeted in my office with one of my
dogs. It is ritual. I have to play the grumpy old man for the
grandkids - they expect it. ;)

Eventually, one of the kids will knock on the door and ask if I can
help them with "something".

Tradition - can't beat it.

Later,

Tom

Standard fare for me.

I have two sisters who are vegans. Their families are gathering in
Pittsburgh for some tasty tofu and then they'll probably head over to
Oohmahnee or somewheres to feed the turkeys.

Turkey, brined for 6 hours before cooking, then slow-cooked over coals with
a few mesquite chips. Hot damn! One of my neighbors came over to ask if my
oven was broken. :-)

Show of hands, please. How many of you were subjected to yams with
marshmallows? How many without the marshmallows?

Yes, without marshmallows, but with butter, brown sugar, and pecans. I
can handle that!

Why ruin butter, brown sugar, and pecans?
