Cook the Book: Edible Christmas Tree Decorations

I wonder if how long these are "edible" for before they get totally stale? And, I also wonder if you can re-use them year after year (maybe without the icing)? Suggestions?

Cook the Book: 'Nigella Christmas'

Hmmm, probably "sand tarts", a kind of thin German sugar cookie, decorated with colored sugars.

Win a Free Organic D'Artagnan Turkey

As far as menus go, the Thanksgiving with a French Twist menu sounds awesome to me, and gives me some good ideas to do things a bit differently this year!

Meat Lite: Spaghetti with Tomato-Braised Kale

This is amazing! We made it last night, and both uniformly loved it! Kale is not in my usual ingredient list, but I'm trying to add more dark leafy greens to our diet, and you really don't even notice them in this dish. Yum!!

Cook the Book: Pumpkin Baking

It's a toss-up between pumpkin pie and pumpkin cheesecake...depends on my mood!

Cook the Book: 'Dishing Up Vermont'

Born & raised in VT, now living in Missouri: I'd agree with previous poster on BBQ (dry smoked, sauce on the side), but also pecans (take that Georgia!) and biscuits and gravy.

Cook the Book: 'The Modern Baker'

Biggest mistake: forgetting the sugar in this potentially beautiful homemade ricotta cheesecake...and I had taken so long to make the ricotta from scratch! Biggest success: wonderfully crispy exterior, soft interior baguettes with oven spring!!
