Gift Guide: For Cake Bakers
You may want to be careful on the cupcake caddy. I have two, one that looks like the one you posted, and one that looks like a plastic cupcake tray (much deeper holes for the cupcakes). The shallow spots for cupcakes often end up in tipped cupcakes. If anyone is looking, I'd recommend a carrier with the deeper cups.
What's the Best Bread for Stuffing?
I got my stuffing methodology from my father. For a few months before Thanksgiving (ok really year round because stuffing is great), I cube up any leftover heels of good bread, homemade, storebought, white, wheat, sourdough, sometimes even cheese bread. I toast them and throw them in ziplocs in the freezer. Then pull them all out and mix, and voila, a texturally interesting, flavorful stuffing! With the added bonus that I didn't actually have to buy any bread.
Cook the Book, Thanksgiving Special: Sam Sifton and Epicurious
My best success is having more desserts than people (group of 7, with pumpkin cheesecake, apple spice cupcakes with 2 frostings, walnt apple pie, cranberry caramel almond tartlets, sugarfree pumpkin custard, and sugarfree apple crisp). Odds are it will probably be my biggest fail as well.

For the 1 millionth time, German Chocolate Cake is not a German dessert. It named after a man whose last name is German. Here is the wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_chocolate_cake
If you want to make something German, do the black forest cake or a kuchen/strudel. Coconut and pecans are Southern!
Chain Reaction: The Cheesecake Factory
Appetizers and desserts are all that is worth eating at Cheesecake Factory. Some of the apps are really delicious (Buffalo Chicken Blasts, Sweet Corn Tamale Cakes) ... Never had an entree that satisfied though.
