"It's gotta be Yam Casserole. The recipe I have is a knock your socks off kind, it's that good."

"What a great list, you should include it next week in the Winter Bazaar, it would fit oh so well.

I'm already starting to drool over things I get to fix each November. It's my big excuse to eat all the things I like and ignore my batch of picky eaters."

"This year it'll be turkey having not eaten meat during the past 5 Thanksgivings! Aside from that I love green bean casserole and my family recipe for jell-o!"

"Jalapeno Corn: 2 cans corn, 1 tub chive flavor cream cheese, 2 diced jalapenos (you can remove the seeds to keep the flavor without the heat.) Stir together and microwave to heat through--you don't need room in the oven or on the stovetop and the dish takes 5 minutes from start to finish. It's a little untraditional, but my mom started making it about 10 years ago and it's become a family favorite!"

"Oh, by far my favorite is my mom's cornbread dressing. It's really kind of sad how much of it I can put away. ;)"
