I don't understand - why would anyone prefer a turkey over a suckling pig?

I second the hibernation comment - all I've been wanting to do these past two weeks are sleep and eat cheese.

Wow, I can't believe you've created a tasty turkey burger. Sounds like just the thing to have the day after making your bacon times triplicate burger.

Your Clever SE Name

Baconpants was already taken! And I have never seen a baconpants comment, so boo on whoever that is. But um, "marchpane," which is another way of saying marzipan, is a tip towards The Amber Spyglass by Philip Pullman.

When did you know you were...

I went through all the children's cookbooks at my local library when I was a kid, and then I started on the adult ones.

Weekend Book Giveaway: 'Cake Wrecks'

I once forgot to add flour to my brownies, and I kept cooking them, wondering why they refused to firm up. My housemates and their friends demolished them anyway, using forks to scoop up brownie pudding and leaving a mostly eaten pan of brownie pudding with tons of pronged inroads.

I, too, have a hankering for the Silver Palate Cornbread-Sausage Stuffing recipe. I have spent the better part of the day online looking for one that was "just so." And after all that (and the online prompting), I had the cookbook all along. I feel like Dorothy in the "Wizard of Oz."

I'll probably try to eat some deep-fried turkey, but there is no way I'll try cooking it myself, even in Alton Brown says it can be done.

Kenji, great writing and meticulous organization. Thanks for figuring this stuff out. And, love that photo of the half-tied ballotine. Reminded me of Gourmet (sob).

Hmm--given that I have pie on the brain because I have to bake at least 4 for various Thanksgiving dinners I'm going to (my family's, the in-laws' and a friend's), I'd say Dorie's sour cream pumpkin pie, because I have yet to come across a bad recipe from her. (Cook's Illustrated is usually a good bet, too, but I just can't see myself straining cooked yams given the time constraints.)
