Sugar High…Sunday?

The blog roundup for Sugar High Friday is posted now at The Well-Seasoned Cook along with my Gemstone Cheesecake. Check it out!  And as soon as I have eaten my fill of turkey and stuffing leftovers, I will cobble together a new post – a cranberry and pear tart with walnut shortbread crust that is mouthwateringly good.  This was the biggest hit at our post-Thanksgiving family meal.

I hope that everyone had a wonderful holiday.  My own Thanksgiving was a fabulous dinner at my mother-in-law’s house.  We weren’t taking photos but I can tell you it was quite a feast – Martha Stewart’s Turkey, mashed potatoes, green bean vinaigrette with parmesan breadcrumbs, pomegranate cranberry sauce, butternut squash, pecan buns, stuffing, braised onions, 4 homemade pies (3 apple, one blueberry), and a stupendous Magnolia Bakery pumpkin spice cake with caramel cream cheese frosting.  I’m full all over again, just writing that!  Next year I promise to photograph, but trust me – it was goooooood.

Sugar High Friday

Well, it is a bit past Friday, of course, but I have just been posted (2nd from the bottom) on the blog lineup for last week’s Sugar High Friday “Spice” event. You can scroll through the many delicious offerings on Anita’s site, Dessert First, or just check out my creation at The Fresh Dish. Have a very sweet Tuesday – and don’t forget to get to the polls today!
