My family gets the EXACT same turkeys every year for Thanksgiving! As a matter of fact a few years ago my aunt and uncle couldn't join us because they were in China at the time and ate the chocolate turkeys they brought with them as their main dish because bird flu was a big problem that year, thus no real turkey. (Sorry about rambling... I've just never seen anyone with the same tradition) I'm probably going to try making "Mom's Noodle Kugel" OH MY GOODNESS!

COOL! First-time poster here. I love your blog and the pics make me want to try everything make...even the green bean casserole which I actually hate. :D Thanks, Kristin Are those Emmy’s I see on the mantle? COOL!

First-time poster here. I love your blog and the pics make me want to try everything make…even the green bean casserole which I actually hate. :D

I think I want to make everything that you cook. Your food sensibility is very much in line with mine. Yum. That photo of the bus and taxi (etc) is wonderful and surreal.

OOOOOH Noodle Kugel! What goes in it? I swear my grandmother has the best recipe, though I'm not at "home" right now (actually, I'm at "home" i.e. at my parents' house, but that's in another state from where my recipes are right now) so I can't look it up. When I get back - sometime next week - I'll send it: eggs, cream cheese, egg noodles, sugar, and, always, crumbled cereal on top. What an entertaining list! OOOOOH Noodle Kugel! What goes in it?

My mother parts with the recipe with far less matrimonial gravitas, so I'll see if I can whip it up for a post. SantaDad - Indeed. Blech! Sara - Glad it worked out so well! I am sure there are ways to improve upon green beans but personally, I only like my lightly steamed so they still have a nice crunch, never cooked through, never canned or frozen. But, it's not like we didn't know I was difficult. Browneyedgirlie - It's okay, we don't judge here at the Smitten Kitchen. :) Nikki - So, the Turkey of the Year award is just that. Ballots are passed around and you vote for who has been the biggest, well, turkey. Turkey is a more loosely-defined concept, but it's essentially the person you would most like to see with a face full of Redi-Whip, because that, you see, is the reward. If you see the votes coming in heavily for you, it's best to grab your sunglasses. Anyway, I heard a rumor next year is Alex's turn. I'm just saying. Kate - What, you don't have a fireplace mantle full of Emmys? My cousin is the technical producer on a soap opera, or so I hear. I think he got them on eBay. :) francesa - Francesca! Hello! I hope you are having a wonderful holiday weekend.

Since we have done Thanksgiving for the last two years at our house and we got engaged yesterday, it looks like we might become the official annual hosts, and I'd love to have a tradition like that one. Do tell us how it works. I’m really dying to know about the turkey of the year competition.

I understand that this is completely a result of the 5+ years I spent in the Midwest, where it is a staple at the dinner table - holidays or not. And that quiche looks SO yummmmmy!

But I do make vegan green bean casserole (which can't include the canned mushroom soup unless you specifically search out the vegan kind - I do a rue and then mix in sauteed mushrooms and onions for the base). And its one of my favorite things. To each his own I suppose. also, not to be contrary or anything.
