My cousin used to make a pumpkin cheesecake that was awesome, so I might see if this recipe is similar.

'Waiter Rant': The Giveaway

When I was about 12, and my brother 9, my family went on vacation from California to Maine. One night we were in a small restaurant, it was later in the evening, and we were almost the last people there. Our waitress was probably in her 80s. We all 4 ordered lobster, and when she brought our lobsters, we must have been looking a little perplexed. None of us had eaten a whole lobster before and didn't know how to start. Our waitress pulled a chair over from the next table, sat down with us, and started pulling pieces off our lobsters and showing us how to eat them. She'd take a tail fin from one persons plate, a leg from another, etc. It was oddly bizarre, freakishly strange, and endearing all at once.

Chocolate-Covered Bacon for Breakfast

I live in Santa Cruz and I think I'll have to go downtown this week and see if they still have this. I just tried the Vosges bacon bar and it is wonderful.

KitchenAid Artisan Mixer vs. KitchenAid Pro Mix

I have a pro 5 qt. It's wonderful. I got it on Amazon, they have factory refurbished ones cheap. I think it was about $130 a year ago, with a 6 month warranty

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.

Honey brined and smoked turkey for me. I live on the seventh floor of an apartment house so I gave my brother a smoker for Christmas last year so he could smoke me some turkey.
