Lemme know if you actually want the carrot cake recipe! It's pretty awesome!
Im fixing whats considered pretty traditional southern Thanksgiving day cuisine.
Turkey- with rosmary, sage, thyme butter spread, stuffed with lemon and onions baked on top of celery, carrots and garlic.
Country Ham- Not honey or spiral. This is more salty with a baked on glaze of brown sugar and cloves.
Fried summer squash-boiled and fried in onions and bacon grease. (Nothing better than taking a perfectly healthy vegatable and making it totally bad for you but its awesomely yummy. )
Collard greens-boiled with ham juice, vinegar and hot peppers
Boiled cabbage and potatoes
Candied Yams- Yams layered with brown and white sugar, butter and topped with marshmellows baked to a golden brown.
Dressing/Stuffing-kinda plain since my son cant have nuts and my dad doesnt like apples, but its sooo good slathered in gravy made from the drippings after cooking the turkey.
Pillsbury cresent rolls- more of a family tradition than southern cuisine
and....drumroll please
Pumpkin pie!---woo hoo. Let the artery hardening begin!

I don't really care much for thanksgiving food, except for the fact that canned pumpkin is on sale, and I love making pumpkin bread.
For christmas, I go into baking overdrive, and make a ton of traditional swedish stuff. Limpa bread, spritz, mundleformer and pepperkoker cookies. Mmm, can't wait until christmas.

I love mince pies! sooo delicious. I love them in a soup of custard or cream.
I have never had pumpkin pie, I would really like to try it. I have this recipe for pumpkin cheesecake but the boyfriend tells me I am not allowed to make it, something about pumpkin not being allowed in desserts.
Do you use tofu instead of cheese? Just curious what your recipe is.I agree with LVT2DVM! Pumpkin Cheesecake - BEST DESSERT EVER! Even my dad, who is one of those people who thinks it is really funny to say, "hey, what kind of turkey meat do you want? Light or dark? hahaha..." thought my cheesecake last night was great.

Hmmm, tofu? I dont have a clue, I never touch the stuff. My recipe card is AWOL but heres one that looks similar to mine. Pumkin cheesecake is just like regular cheesecake but just has pumpkin added to it.

Blasphemy!!! I wait with baited breathe every year for Olive Garden to put this on the menu. Pumpkin cheescake is the BOMB! Tell the BF to get out of YOUR kitchen.
I was just wondering, since Veganchick was saying her pumpkin cheesecake recipe was awesome, but for her to be able to eat it it couldn't have cheese in it. So I was just wondering what one would substitute for cheese in a cheesecake.
Stealthdog - cute! Where did you get your cookie cutter?
