Spun Sugar

This was my contribution to Thanksgiving dinner. Pumpkin Cheesecake with a halo of spun sugar. It worked!

It's coming . . .

I think I need to eat less and write more. November has been a month filled with great food and I am excited to post these recipes . . . someday. Here's a list of what you can expect:

Peppered Pork Tenderloin with Grilled Gorgonzola Pears
Pig in a Birds nest - getting creative with leftovers
Spinach and Quinnoa Salad with an Apple Walnut Vinaigrette
Can-less Creamed Corn
Apple Pie
Caramelized Quince Upside down Cake

I am eagerly anticipating December with all of its sweet treats. This year I am particularly excited about making chocolate ganache stuffed figs, French almond nougat, Roasted-Pineapple Hot Buttered Rum - minus the rum, sticky date and almond bread pudding, and pistachio cardamom macaroons. Yum.
