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.

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!

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!!

A lavender ganache...or my mom's chocolate cake with chocolate frosting!

Cornbread Stuffing Muffins with Ham and Sage, from 'Bon Appétit'. The recipe is just ho hum but the idea that every person maximizes their stuffing crispy bits due to the muffin tins is amazing.

The Cranberry Relish with Orange and Ginger sounds great! I love cranberries with orange juice/zest. I've tried lots of variations, but never with ginger before.
