I would really like some of that in my life.

I can make it happen.

Odessa unveils Thanksgiving Special; complete dinner still $18.95

The folks at Odessa hung the familiar Thanksgiving Special signage yesterday here at 119 Avenue A between East Seventh Street and St. Mark's Place…

The complete dinner is the same as in recent years… with the same $18.95 price tag (they bumped it from $15.95 to $18.95 from 2013 to 2014).

As noted in previous posts about the Thanksgiving Special signage, I've had my share of Thanksgiving dinners here. Always a good time. Can't say that I've ever tried the cup of Cream of Turkey Soup, though. Kinda seems like something you'd have on Saturday when you're exhausting the leftover possibilities. Turkey Crunch in a hoof!

Feuerzangenbowle


It has been a grey leaden day. Red wine with spices and citrus and flaming sugar, has appeal.


Safer, done by a hearth, methinks. (Does not have an indoor hearth.

Mrs. D. has a pumpkin pie recipe that calls for bourbon. We didn't have any, and being Sunday, the liquor stores are closed. I sacrificed two tablespoons of single malt for the cause.

OH Elle, that looks so good. I'd love a slice of that popped in my toaster and with some coffee right now.

Buttermilk Pie

3 large eggs
2 cups sugar
3 tablespoons flour
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup butter
1/4 teaspoon salt

Cream butter and sugar, 1/2 cup sugar at a time. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each. Combine the flour and salt, and add that a little at a time. Add the buttermilk.

Pour the mixture into pie crust. Bake at 300 F for 1 1/2 hours.


Very simple, very rich, and very popular with my family and friends.

And people you meet on Literotica

This is now our pie this year Thank you so much for sharing, its so much more special to have a recipe from a 'real person' than a recipe site.

Some of those people become friends, too, which is lovely. I hope you enjoy it.

I just had a request for Gianbattista's bread recipe.

Its a sourdough loaf, so the starter has been going for some months but you could make just a plain loaf with yeast too I guess!

He says he did 400 grams strong white bread flour ( 00)
200 ml warm water
Salt
His biga/ starter ( so if none try yeast)


Once risen fold in pistachios and dried apricots ( measured by eye) Allow to fully rise again in the tin.

Bake in a hot oven ( maybe 220 celcius ) for maybe 45 minutes ( check ) with ice in in a tin underneath for the crust.


Sorry about metric, he is a metric man through and through. We are both slapdash about time and temps, and, well, measurements. Even though he baked that one in the oven with a temperature guage!

if any one wants me to convert to metric I will happily. But, as you see, we go by luck and previous experience more than readings.

Oh hey, I might just make that tomorrow instead of going out on the snowy streets to buy a loaf of bread.

Thanks Elle and Gianbattista! Lol....my metric system is a bit iffy.

I have used metric so long I'd have problems with Imperial! Besides what's so hard about metric? It's all in zeroes.
