Lin's Thanksgiving Feast
For four diners, Lin made:
Roasted turkey Dressing (mixture of cornbread and cubed white bread) Mashed potatoes Gravy Homemade cranberry sauce Steamed Brussels sprouts with butter Sweet potatoes with marshmallows Bourbon-bacon pecan pie (with whipped cream) Pumpkin pie (also with whipped cream) I brought leftovers to work with me tonight. I haven't tried the pumpkin pie yet, but that pecan pie is incredible. Bob |

Now whose being bombastic, Bryan? "Cruciferous"? I shall call you Bryan le Bombatiste! (Or should that be "la"?) I assume you mean Brussels sprouts *and* green beans. I love green beans, but Brussels sprouts have a nasty flavor in them I cannot abide. John Kuthe... |

You ought to visit Long Acres Farms, the Market In The Loop's only permanent vendor. They're green beans are really GOOD lately! I made myself some yesterday and they were YUM!! > > but Brussels sprouts have a nasty flavor in them I cannot abide. > > Nasty. Agreed. There is something bitterish in them that I swear some others cannot taste, but I cannot avoid tasting. Linda like that chemical they used to pass out filter paper strips of in biology class that statistically, genetically a certain percentage of people can taste and the others cannot taste. I swear there are chemicals like that in some vegetables too! Like Brussels sprouts! To me they are nasty. Others say they love them. Great, they can have all of MINE! ;-) John Kuthe... |

I have to say pecan pie with BACON in it just does not sound very appetizing, and especially with bourbon in it too...really?! I always say a person shouldn't knock something until they've at least tried it, but if I knew the ingredients...this I'd pass on. ) It's hard to beat just the regular pecan pie...if it's made right. I never got one made for Thksgv., but for sure I will for Christmas, even if I'm the only one that eats it. Most of the rest of the menu sounded good, except brussel sprouts are my least favorite vegetable and I am not a fan of the sweet potato-marshmallow"thing". I love sweet potatoes fixed almost all other ways, but...just not the ones from a can. They have to be fresh, or not at all. Hubby says I'm "picky", and I don't think I am, but...maybe he's right? LOL Judy |

I don't care for them either, and have tried several different recipes for them, but nothing covers the bitter bite to them, and yet I love cabbage. My youngest son, who never cared for veggies growing up, loved B. sprouts, so I would cook them for him, and fix another that I liked! Judy |

We cut it into chunks and fill a 9 x 13 inch pan with it and sprinkle with salt & pepper, sprinkle some brown sugar over it and dot it with butter. Bake at 350º for 1 hour...covered for half the time. We eat the entire pan! Judy |

Bacon is a seasoning ingredient for people who can't cook and have TIAD... all anyone will taste is bacon... those are the people who think a dinner of beer nuts and Slim Jims are ambrosia. |

I'm still waiting to hear how the web-based forum differs functionally from Foodbanter. Seems like it provides exactly the same service to its subscribers. Bob |

The web based rfc forum seems to be self-contained. It does not steal content and does not propagate any posts to usenet. It does not display any ads either. You can tell as much or as little about yourself as you wish in your profile, all that's required is a password and email (but you can choose not to display it). I decided to fill in the blank for location since I like to see what part of the world other people are posting from. I also changed the date format to month/day/year and time. -- Food is an important part of a balanced diet. |

You loathe brussel sprouts and I loathe liver. We should meet sometime and attempt to consume a liver and brussel sprouts casserole with a "Who gags last" prize. leo |
