mrs. mich makes a mean sour-cream apple pie and pumpkin cream pie.

No olive tray.  I requested sauted green beans instead of nasty casserole.  Other than that, pretty similar.

Friday, I will be making leftover turkey gumbo.

I was hours away from starting my 3rd Annual Waks' T-Give Watch/Breakdown and you have to go and sandbag me like this.

Whore.

If I said I wasn't thinking about that when I started this thread I would be a dirty lying slut.  If you try to start it now I will merge that mother rough rider hard.

Let me know how this turns out.  I have been planning to make it for the last several years and, like jake vs Duke, just haven't taken care of biz.

I did it last year.  It will turn out fantastic.  The secret is the "roux".

Does anyone else hate sweet potatoes?  I do.

Absolutely hate them with a passion. Though when I went to Chicago my gfs uncle made me try some at a Ruths Criss restaurant and they were elite because they tasted like pumpkin pie, a personal favorite.

anyone else really hate Cool-Whip?

No freaking way. I cover my entire pumpkin pie with it so I can't see any of the pie. Then I practically swallow it whole.


Grandma used to make an amazing fresh raspberry pie but since she's very slow these days it hasn't been done. I think I'll be trying to whip one up this year...

[steve dave]

I don't like the thanksgiving style ones but I like baked sweet potatos and sweet potato fries. 

[jtksu]

Alton Brown has a badass recipe for sweet potato pie on the food network site.  rough ridin' fantastic.
