Ciabatta and Pork Sausage Stuffing

November 14, 2016 by Annie Chesson 8 Comments

Stuffing? Dressing? I know that technically this would be called "dressing" because it's baked separately from the turkey, but it feels wrong for me to call it that. We have always called it stuffing, and dressing is the liquidy stuff that you put on da lettuces. And that's that! Just kidding...you can call it whatever you want. Just let it be known that I do accept the fact that the correct term ...

November 11, 2015 by Annie Chesson 12 Comments

Um, yeah. So Thanksgiving is basically in two weeks. Just letting you know in case you COMPLETELY lost track of time like I did. Can we just discuss for a minute the impossibility that Thanksgiving is already in two weeks? Anybody? Anybody?!?! Maybe it's just me who is shocked by this sudden realization. In the spirit of the ridiculously fast approaching holiday...side dishes!! Like these ...

Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, oh my goodness. THESE ARE THE BEST THINGS EVER!! As you all know by now, I am not a baker. Desserts are not my strong point, so I had very little faith that these little cuties would turn out well. But they were ammmmaazziinnngggg.

Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving! Thannkkksssgiiivvinggg!!! I feel like Thanksgiving is a particularly fun holiday for anyone who loves to cook. I actually enjoy the cooking more than the eating...
