glazes & stuffings for winter squash?

Glazed with apple cider, fill the center of the acorn squash ring with a homemade whole-cranberry/orange sauce. Yum!

Glad to have this list. For glassware, also consider Fishes Eddy. Possibly cheaper than $4/per, especially in the back sale room.

Yep, cojita and corn is correct!
Recipe is here, the dressing is super tasty. http://www.pithyandcleaver.com/?p=1138

Mixed Review: Pasta Partners Vodka-Less Vodka Cream Sauce

I'd be interested to know the ingredients—is it just herbs/salt/powdered bacon? Because you're adding milk and tomatoes yourself...

French in a Flash: Carrot Muffins with Sweet Chèvre Icing

Love the icing recipe! But agreed—you're going to get ripped apart around here if you use a mix. Also, mixes probably vary in sweetness/tastiness, so if you are using one, you should probably mention which one you like.

Can I make beef short ribs ahead of time?

You don't lose the fond if you brown in a skillet first, then deglaze and add everything to the slowcooker. Then it can cook SUPER low and slow for a million hours (or, like, 12.)

I, too, was amazed by how few recipes I could find calling for red currants.

Eat for Eight Bucks: Shrimp Rolls with Homemade Chive Mayo

Lobster is actually pretty cheap this year...I've seen it for $8.99/lb at Chelsea Market, but these sound tasty! (And I'm actually not a huge fan of lobster anyway.)

For a twist, you could do these with part rice flour for a sort of pa jeon...delicious.

Cook the Book: 'Mrs. Rowe's Little Book of Southern Pies'

Once baked pie in one of those premade pie crusts in a foil pan. Took it out of the oven, pan buckled, hot pumpkin pie filling ALL over the floor.

Cook the Book: Crepas Salguero

Yes—it sounds amazing. I wish these "Cook the Book" features really included recipe testing, though. Does Serious Eats need a hand?

Weekend Cook and Tell: 'Off-cuts' of Meat

I made some lamb shoulder chops, a cut I'd never worked with before. It was the cheapest thing on offer from Catskill Merino Sheep Farm in the Union Square Market. I rubbed them with a bit of curry powder and mustard, then broiled. They were SUPER juicy and delicious, though quite fatty and slightly difficult to eat. Probably not appropriate for company, but really great for a weekend dinner at home.

Wechsler's Currywurst Bratwurst, a Taste of Berlin in the East Village

Sure, late night this is a good idea. I'm all for that.
But $6 for a single Schaller & Weber bratwurst? Come on, it's not that hard to open a package of these on your own. This place should be making its own sausages.

Look, all of us want more blog traffic, and there is no way we can read all of our collective blogs, but we should really make an effort to check out at least other 5 SE's blogs if we post our own in this thread --after all, not fair to 'shill' if you don't help others out!

So wonderful to have so many fellow writers! I actually have two blogs to share. One is my personal blog: www.thedilettantista.wordpress.com which covers, well, EVERYTHING, cooking, restaurants, movies, etc. I started it this summer when I was living in New York City for an internship, so it is especially heavy on NYC eating.

I am also a contributing writer to Carpe Durham, a food blog that focuses on eating in Durham, North Carolina. The blog was started a few years ago by Duke law students, and I am a newer writer. The blog is a great source if you live in the Triangle area!

@Madelyn -- KarmaFreeCooking is one of my favorite blogs! I love it. Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into it.

While I'm at it, I'd like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you food bloggers. The time, effort, and enthusiasm you all put into your blogs delights, entertains, and educates the rest of us.

Thank you all!

Hey there - Tyler Florence has a wicked recipe for baked squash with sage. Super awesome - basically your usual brown sugar/butter spread into the hollow and then just press a couple leaves of fresh sage into the top and bake. Yummy - and a great way to use sage that's kicking around. Cheers!
