Serious Cocktails: Women and Whiskey
I'm a devotee to peaty scotch whiskeys: Compass Box Flaming Heart and Ardbeg's Airigh Nam Beist (only have had a glass of it, but that baby's on my X-mas list) are my favorites.
Because I usually drink scotch at get togethers, a lot of women will join in with me. I've also found that women of my grandmother's generation (in their 60's, 70's, 80's) are more likely to be scotch drinkers. My own nana, actually, almost had a run-in with my brother in law a few weeks ago, over his putting ice in his scotch. "Ruins the flavor." (I totally agree.)

Cook the Book: 'Almost Meatless'
Butternut squash risotto - or any risotto really, no need for a bunch of meat in there.
What Gender Are Your Kitchen Appliances?
My caviar KitchenAid is totally a dude. But he's very effeminate.
Liberté Yogurt: My Holy Grail of Dairy Products
I've never tried Liberte but have recently been obsessing over Redwood Hill Farm's goat milk yogurt.
Weekend Book Giveaway: 'American Cheeses'
My favorite local is Bobolink Cheese from Vernon, NJ, though I love Midnight Moon by Cypress Grove too.
Year-old turkeys--what to do?
I'd cook the birds unless there's freezer burn. Why waste? If you don't want to eat, you could make a hell of a lot of turkey stock.
Cook the Book: 'Martha Stewart's Cooking School'
I have to agree with majority on mac n' cheese.

Trade in my klondike bar?
Food In Literature - What Has Inspired You?
And Hemingway's got some good stuff. A.J. Liebling too.
Food In Literature - What Has Inspired You?
Barbara Pym's writing (about food and women) is wonderful. And Ian Mcewan has some great food scenes in "Saturday."
How far in advance can I make the dressing?
I wouldn't add any liquid beforehand. And I think adding the bread on the day is a good idea. Though, you know, if you don't have much time of Thanksgiving day, I would just saute the veg and bacon the day before. Add everything into the baking dish except 1/2-3/4 the cooking liquid and the pecans (hate soggy pecans) and bake for the first half. Then the next day toast the pecans, add more liquid and finish it up. This way, you'll be sure to get the dressing soft enough (assuming you like the bread on the softer side) without turning it to mush. I've had leftover stuffing many a time, just adding some more liquid before reheating, and never had a problem.
Easy Comfort Food
I've had so much good food since reading your comments! I would thank you all but I think I'm going to have to go buy a pair of bigger pants! ;)
Win a Free Organic D'Artagnan Turkey Here!
I really like Dorie Greenspan's All-in-One cake. And the brussel sprouts with bacon!
I love ________ butter.
Vermont Butter & Cheese brand lightly salted butter.
Easy Comfort Food
Thanks, everyone! I am definitely going to make a meatloaf. @Foody2 I think I'd like fennel too.
@CarolynEats Oh, if it were only that easy!
Cook the Book: 'Second Helpings of Roast Chicken'
Most frequently I use butter. But cream and milk always go bad before I can use it up.
It tastes better the next day
I always like beans better the next day.
Breakfast Burritos in California
Oh, this makes me weep. Lived in California for a short but very well-fed time. So jealous!
Cook the Book: 'Fat'
Potatoes cooked in duck or goose fat. So addicting.

About caviarandcodfish
Website: http://caviarandcodfish.com
Location: New Jersey
About: I eat. I cook. I go to people's houses and cook. I swim in the Delaware. I write a blog. I eat some more.
Favorite foods: Anything local. Anything a farmer would like to sell or give me. Hardly anything that's overly processed, nothing that is bright orange when it should not be. Anything that makes me feel validated for being a food snob. And hush-puppies.
Last bite on earth: Whatever yo mama's makin'... cause she's all like to death do us part, biotch!
