Food you most look forward to
 

@family type celebrations such as Thanksgiving????

It might seem weird, but for Thanksgiving, stuffing is what I always look forward to the most. Then pie.

Hmmm, stuffing and pie.

Stuffing, pie.

Stuffing pie.

Maybe it's not so weird after all. :p

Home made apple pie. My mom makes the best pie ever. Her biscuits come out flat and hard, her breads don't rise, and she can't bake a cake to save her life, but she can bake one hell of a pie.

sweet taters! aint nuthin' beats sweet taters!

I make awesome sweet potatoes.

I had drunken sweet potatoes with Lil at Applebees 2006.

My doctor tells me my blood sugar will be back to normal sometime 2014.

Having Thanksgiving with my kids, unfortunately they live with their dad........fortunately I can play nice.

My ex and my 16 year old son will be cooking.....I most look forward to fried turkey.....it's sooooo good, really crispy outside and really juicy inside.

Yummy !!!!!!!

Banana nut bread fresh from the oven

While I'm quite sure you do, you may as well douse them with pepper. :nod: They're on my 'Do Not Fly' list. :p

The cranberry sauce.

I'm sitting here still feeling rather stuffed from my awesome cooking. :thumbs: My favorites were the cranberry chutney. That stuff is like crack to anyone who tries it. :nod: I also made this awesome apple and cranberry stuffing that was somewhat healthy and very yummy. And for the first time I made balsamic and honey sweet potatoes in my crockpot that came out really nice.

Would have been my mom's green stuff.

I'm a stuffing person ... stuffing with gravy. Yum! Then, turkey sandwiches while I'm watching one of the football games. Yep. Great after-Thanksgiving foods. (I'll pick some other foods later as we near Christmas ... like the German candy/cake called "Cold Dog" (with rum of course). :D

My new fave is the reduced-sugar pecan pie my wife made for me this year. I told her it was a keeper!

Dearsweet's Creamed Spinach, and this year for the first time, my daughter’s Chocolate Chip Cookies. Another tradition passed to the next generation. :thumb:

no-one mentioned green bean casserole!!?? :D

Lebanese cuisine...most anything therein.

Any new thoughts?

Stuffing!!!

I am making a sweet potato and apple dish in my crockpot that has a maple syrup glaze that I'm looking forward to trying out.

I made pumpkin custard pecan bars that I hope are yum.

Mmmmm ... real Maine maple syrup !!!

-turkey mashed potatoes with gravy poured over it all!

Baked potato and baked onions smothered in a roast-beef panjuice gravy.

I don't know, the bottle says it was hand-tapped by North American Maples. I was a little shocked at how much money Joe spent on this syrup. I still forget that he takes what I say literally, so when I say maple syrup that doesn't mean imitation maple syrup. Should be tasty! :nod:

I'll be right over! :thumb:

Stuffing, stuffing and more stuffing. Tasty bread happiness! (with gravy)

TT, there is nothing like real maple syrup....or maple sugar candy.

I've been considering this for awhile and I think the best way to describe it is "everything". We have turkey a few times a year, and we make mashed potatoes a lot too. But really the only time we have all the traditional items together is on T'day.

Broccoli casserole :) I have also made a fruit salad (from my g-ma's recipe)...and my brother's fried bird is AWESOME! I love cornbread dressing, but I'm gonna have to learn how to make it...cuz no one else makes it like my mom used to.
