BUTTER OVERLOAD
What is this butter overload you speak of?

YAY! Thanks for sharing! Something kind of wonderful after a rough day at work.
Midnight snack attack!
Instant ramen noodles - Mama brand, tom yum soup. Or toast with homemade honey cayenne butter. Actually eating the instant noodles now...

10 of Our Favorite Non-Cookbook Food Books in 2011
Your weekly book column definitely influences what I read - my absolute favorite this year was Blood Bones and Butter.
Gift Guide: Food-Related Art Prints
Robyn, I think you should sell your foodmablobs as prints. I would totally buy some to put up on my walls.

Kenji's no waste carnitas!
Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Korin Knife
Good grief - I've never won anything on Serious Eats but I want this one here! My favorite knives are a set of ceramic knives by Kyocera - a Santoku and a paring knife. They're awesome for vegetables, but can't use them on meat. :(

Straight into my pie hole.
Fried Squid Po' Boy with Avocado and Black Chile Oil
SHUT UP! Was the first thing I though when I saw the title. Nom nom nom.
San Francisco: 7 Turkey Sandwiches We Love
There's got to be a good place for Salvadorean pan con chumpe in the city - I just had some from South City last weekend and it was DELICIOUS! Especially the gravy that comes with it.
Can Your Parents Cook?
My parents are immigrants and I grew up with my mom's cooking - she's Taiwanese and she would cook all types of Asian cuisine, including Southeast Asian, since that's where my dad grew up. The "American" meals that she would make for my brother and I were spaghetti and meatballs, and steak and salad. My dad doesn't cook much, but he makes the world's best fried rice - it even tops my mom's - and the world's biggest kitchen disaster whenever he makes it. He also used to wake us up on Sunday mornings by asking us how many bags of ramen noodles we wanted for breakfast and how we wanted them made (types of noodles, with eggs, ham, and lettuce, etc.) I learned to cook on my own, though, by reading all the children's cookbooks in the local library. The first thing I ever made was scrambled eggs in the microwave. They were not a success.

What was on your Thanksgiving plate?
LOVE reading everyone's menus! Yesterday morning we got on the ferry at 5 a.m., as is our Thanksgiving tradition, for the Sunrise Ceremony on Alcatraz, and it was RAINING and cold and miserable...sigh. We only got two hours of sleep before we got left the house at 4, and I took a two hour nap before I fell out of bed to finish the rest of the cooking once we got back. But dinner was definitely a delicious, delicious success:
Dry brined turkey (thanks, Pumpkin Bear! I was going to wet brine, but this made more sense!) - my first turkey ever, and it was great!
Kenji's Sausage and Sage Stuffing
Ruhlman's Buttery Baked Corn
Homemade Pumpkin Rolls, with Honey Cayenne Butter
Zucchini and Sunburst Squash with Parsley Oil
Roasted Broccoli
Green Beans with Harissa Vinagrette
Butter Lettuce Salad with Radish, Roasted Tomatoes, and Capers (that nobody touched...I don't know why I ever bother with salads on holidays)
Roasted Garlic Butter Mashed Potatoes
Gravy
Cranberry Sauce
And my boyfriend's mom brought over mulled cider and pumpkin pie. NOM NOM NOM.
Then we went back to his place and watched the taped 9'ers game, which I fell asleep during because I refused to watch them lose. It was very, very upsetting.
Video: Momofuku Milk Bar's Thanksgiving Croissant
@Ghostly - yeah, I've had disappointing croissants at Milk Bar.
Ed - your voice sounds exactly the way I thought it would!! Full of rainbows and pizza! And I love the background music - the soundtrack for Eternal Sunshine is stupendous.
Have Holiday Help Hotlines Outlived Their Usefulness?
Kenji. My thoughts are you should set up your own Thanksgiving Hotline.
Airport Food That Doesn't Suck
Thanks for the tip on T2!! I have a trip to the Philippines in the next month from SFO, and when I was there a few weeks ago, we were stuck with Subway.
My All-Pie Thanksgiving Fantasy
AWESOME SAUCE!!!!!!!!!!
