My uncle w
As A cook in The Navy during WSWII. And came home and was A. Cook 17:46 at on of the fancy Restaurants. In my town. He served Thanksgiving for the entire Family about 65,people and Fed in fits starting @ 11:00. And the last sit down was at 6:00, and boy was it good !
A. Fond memory of my Youth !
I really liked this video! Great tips!
My mom made the sweet potatoes similar to yours, but she added rum and coconut.
i cannot cook, my mother could not cook and my grandmother could cook but past away when I was very little. I tried the pumpkin dump cake and I thought it was really good and so did my family. I know my oven so I baked at 325 for an hour and I added a cream cheese frosting when it cooled cuz why not?! I'm finding the AR channel the easiest and most fun to watch, learn, try

My favorite addition to the green bean casserole is soy sauce. It adds a bit of umami flavor.
fab …. we like butternut squash and had an excellent harvest this year. some fam members prefer it to sweet potatoes.Oh, and deviled eggs.
