I am starting to plan what I'm going to cook next week. I asked my mother for an old recipe and I want to make a new dessert too. I'm thinking some kind of lime pie maybe or perhaps strawberry rhubarb.

What about you? Anything new or old you're definitely making?

:)

    Cranberry horseradish mousse? Is that like a hot cranberry sauce?

    I'm baking cookies, cookies, and more cookies.

    I'm definitely baking a lemon almond bar I baked for the first time a couple months ago. Ohmygawd! They are dEEEEEEvine!

    its pureed cranberries, a little horseradish, a little sour cream, lemon juice, and a little gelatin-molded

    nice and refreshing with all those heavy and "brown" foods

    you cook? ;)

    I am going to my brother's and will probably bring my cornbread and sausage stuffing as well as a pumpkin cheese cake.

    My head is still in September, so not ready for the holidays.

    Pumpkin cheese cake sounds good too! I'd make it, but my boys don't like cheese cake. :p

    I don't do much cooking, but I really want to try to make a Vegan Pumpkin Pie.

    Maybe some stuffing too. Stuffing is easy, even without the bird.

    Hubby and I will probably also try to find a good bar to go hang with people avoiding their families. That doesn't involve making anything, except perhaps some change for tips.
    Walking can be a real trip

    My pumpkin spice ale will be ready to pop open in time for next thursday. It will be my contribution.

    I will also peal potatoes and be in charge of frying the turkey. They don't trust me to get the turkey in the oven but i can use the fryer :)

    salad
    rolls
    mashed potatoes/gravy
    some sort of vegetable(s)
    sweet potato dish my mother-in-law is bringing
    that nasty cranberry jelly that my sister insists be present on the table
    some pies and other sweet goodies

    For appetizers, I am making baked garlic shrimp and tasty cheese-filled pastry balls I ordered from William-Sonoma.

    But making too much food is part of the fun! :)

    If you make enough, there's no cooking the next night.

    As long as you get something you REALLY like, I guess it will still feel like a holiday. :)
