Recipe help?

Jul 17, 2009 00:12

Okay, fellow foodies: my friend hosts a "Thanksgiving in July" party every year, and it's Saturday. I have no idea what I want to bring. In the past, I've made my mom's candied yams (with bourbon and brown sugar :-9) and pine nut stuffing - maybe also pumpkin piñon bread.

All I have to say is that the other night, I dreamt it was Thanksgiving. I was disappointed to wake up and discover there was no turkey.

I have definitely been there. The disappointment is crushing. *grin*
