A Private Zoom to Answer Your Thanksgiving Questions


Would you like a Thanksgiving Prep LIVE?

Please take a moment to check out the video. Lot's of good info!

Hello Reader,

Are you starting to panic about Thanksgiving? Of course you're not. Because you're NORMAL. I've been freaking out for two weeks.

I've created a 5-day email series. Each email tells you what to do from the Saturday to Wednesday before Thanksgiving. You can get it by clicking below. You'll automatically be added to the series. (If you can handle the holiday without medication, please tell me your secret.)

Zoom, anyone?

If you're the kind of person who doesn't read—does anybody still read?—but wants to get support, I'm thinking of having a one-hour private zoom for my subscribers. We'll have an opportunity to ask me any and all your questions. I can give you suggestions, strategies, menus—you name it.
​
But I need to know there's enough folks who are interested. So can you quickly click one of the button below? And I will let you know.

​Quadruple Ginger Ice Cream​

This ultra-creamy quadruple-ginger ice cream is made in the Philadelphia style, meaning the base is egg-free. Fresh, ground, and candied ginger, along with gingersnaps, give it a big, zingy ginger flavor. Try it alone, try it on apple pie, try it in an ice cream float. But by all means, try it!

​Applesauce Bread​

This applesauce bread with a hint of cinnamon is an easy quick bread that's only subtly sweet yet contains all the flavors of fall. It's ready with just 10 minutes of effort and a little patience while it bakes. Perfect for a last-minute sugar fix. Or slip a slice (or two) into the kids' lunchboxes.

What I'm making this Thanksgiving

This is weird...

I haven't figured out why yet, but this Cranberry Pistachio Cookies recipe is going bersekedly viral. It's the #1 most-saved recipe. I always thought of this as a Christmas cookie, but apparently I'm in the minority!

Hi Reader, I have a weakness for Chinese takeout. A serious one.There's something about those little white cartons, the crinkle of the paper bag, and the glorious moment when you lift the lid and a cloud of ginger-and-garlic-scented steam hits you square in the face.And don't get me started on eating noodles straight from the carton while standing at the kitchen counter. I consider it one of life's great pleasures.But every time I make one of my favorite takeout dishes at home, I wonder why I...

Hi Reader, By Monday evening, I've usually made two promises to myself: I'll eat something sensible, and I won't spend an hour making it.These promises have a rather checkered history.I'll open the refrigerator, stare at its contents like I'm waiting for divine intervention, and consider ordering takeout. Then I'll spot a piece of fish and remember that dinner doesn't have to be a three-act production starring me, six dirty pans, and a sink full of regret.Fish is one of my favorite ways to...

Hi Reader, I have a confession. Sometimes I snoop.Not through The One's phone. Not through the neighbors' windows. (Although if they're cooking something good, all bets are off.)I snoop through the traffic reports for Leite's Culinaria.And after all these years of writing, testing, photographing, and occasionally swearing at recipes, I still get a kick out of seeing which ones you visit most.Some make perfect sense. A slow-roasted pork butt with a crackling crust? Of course. Marcella Hazan's...
