Extractions: Main Thanksgiving...Thai Style Well Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. So where ever I might be on Thanksgiving I tend to try to celebrate it any way I can...last year that meant taking the day off of work and cooking a 8 pound turkey in a small toaster oven, two pumkin pies and inviting over my Japanese teachers and friends in Japan. So I don't think there is turkey here in Thailand...actually I didn't even bother looking. But I still spent the day cooking in Chiang Mai. Yesterday I signed up for a Thai cooking class...not even remembering that today would be Thanksgiving. I was picked up at my hostel this morning by the owner and I met two other Americans were in the car (one was even from the North Bay 15 min north of Santa Rosa!) Yet I still didn't clue itno to it being Thanksgiving. We spent the morning cooking traditional and very popular Thai dishes, such as Pad Thai, Tom Yom Soup with Prawns, Chicken with Cashews, Green Curry and coconut rice with coconut pudding with it! Absolutely delicious! Each of us would watch our teacher cook the dish and then we each individually cooked it ourselves. After each dish was cooked...what next but to eat it! So yes, I spent my Thanksgiving cooking and totally stuffing my self silly on wonderful Thai food! I think it wasn't until about the third dish that I realized this, and I wished the other two Americans a happy Thanksgiving.

Extractions: Catherine and I traditionally spend thanksgiving cooking and feasting together, while the cats watch (and dream about having some of our feast! :) To see the entire menu at once, go here So, we started cooking Wednesday evening, beginning with the stuffing cranberry sauce pie fillings , and thousand seed pilaf . The preparations proceeded until midnight. We got up the next day at 8, read the paper, and began cooking again. Thursday, we finished off by preparing the Popovers pie crusts pumpkin bread sweet potatoes , and salmon steaks with wine sauce . A hearty thanks goes out to Matt and Aaron, who saved us with extra pine tins. :) We ate at 5 pm for a couple hours, then it was time to prepare to go out to the local night club . The next day, we went hiking with Catherine's cousins Matt and Aaron. It wasn't a strenuous hike, but we had a nice walk through the junipers out by Magdelena, NM. Being the friday following thanksgiving, the surrounding town and countryside was deserted. Here are some photos of the attendants (all photos taken by Matt; that's why he isn't in them):
Extractions: Main Category: Daily Diary The holiday recipes on my mom's side of the family are taken so seriously, they are successfully used as blackmail over future generations. You think I am kidding about this? I am not. I am almost certain that my mother is withholding an ingredient from the list for the traditional gravy recipe so that she will always have that bargaining chip until the end. I fully expect my sisters and I, decades from now, to be gathered around her bed with our index cards in hand as my mother gives her final lesson. "Remember! (cough) Flour, NOT corn starch. Your Nanny insisted on this. And the last ingredient is...is..." We lean in as if we are one person instead of three. We hang onto her every word. We all move in tenderly to straighten her pillow, smooth her hair. "Is...is..." And that's it. We gasp in horror as we realize that this list is not written down ANYWHERE, the last ingredient has been lost, and future generations of holiday meals will end in our shame for having failed in our mission.

Extractions: Main I'm fairly excited about Thanksgiving Day tomorrow not just because it's my favorite holiday, but because for the first time, I'm doing all the cooking myself. In the past, I've often cooked the turkey, but never the side dishes. This year I'm doing it all. I'm relying heavily on the people at Cook's Illustrated magazine. (They also put on the television show America's Test Kitchen .) My sister-in-law Karin (yes, for the observant, I have both an ex-wife and a sister-in-law named Karin), who is an outstanding chef, turned me onto Cook's Illustrated . If you're at all scientifically minded, it's definitely the way to go. The writers experiment extensively by controlling certain variables and varying others to find the best recipes for basic dishes. In the current issue , for example, they cook over 35 rib roasts to find the best recipe for roast beef and Yorkshire pudding, and they cook 50 batches to find the best recipe for sugar cookies. The Cook's Illustrated people have published a number of books, including

Healthy Memphis:November 2004Archives I m going to start my thanksgiving cooking this weekend and I ll begin it with my favorite cranberry sauce in the world. Couldn t be easier. http://blogs.commercialappeal.com/healthymemphis/archives/2004/11/
Extractions: November 23, 2004 Food diary I started keeping a food diary when I wrote a story about it a few weeks ago. I'm not perfect, but I'm trying hard to write down everything I eat. Here's something I'm doing that you might want to try, too: Every night I take a look at what I've eaten over the day and assess it. I check to make sure I get five servings of fruit and vegetables and three of dairy, and if I haven't, I make a note on the next day's page so I'll see the reminder every time I write something on the page. I also see if I've eaten too much of something, and I scribble a quick note about how I did overall on the back of the page. Posted by Jennifer Biggs at 03:14 PM Comments (0) With a little help from abroad... A colleague forwarded a story to me today about the French paradox, this one about French women who eat cheese and croissants yet still manage to stay slim. Shortly after I read that I noticed that we have blog visitors from France, as well as Italy, Spain, Germany, Belgium, Canada, the Netherlands, and Malaysia. So I'm asking you guys to come clean and tell us what you do that's different from what we do. By the way, it's probably not just red wine, which is what we've heard for years is what keeps the French slim. There's an appreciation of food and of dininglingering meals in restaurants, family meals in homes. No eating in front of the TV. Little or no snacking. Little or no processed food. Quality over quantity.

Extractions: Main The Turkey Strikes Back I suppose I shouldn't've been surprised that so many people had such strong opinions about my Thanksgiving kashrut dilemmas but I am. And since several of you wanted updates, I will simply make a few observations: (1) As someone who is Not Particularly Fond Of Turkey, I would like to formally state that plain ol' roasted fresh kosher turkey (with a few vegetables and basic seasonings, but nothing fancy) is... pretty damn good. (I know, I know this is why people brine.) Alll the leftovers have already been used up, if by "used up" you mostly mean "made into a metric ton of soup and stashed in various freezers across the Boondoggle metro area." (2) I have no clue how our ancestors kept kosher kitchens without lowfat soy products, cheap plastic leftover containers (the holiday-colored ones, indeed), inexpensive glassware, or disposable foil pans. Right now I could give U.S. consumer culture a big sloppy kiss. (3) I should stop projecting my anxieties onto my parents. (They do a perfectly good job of creating their very own anxieties but serving a nonstop selection of exceedingly good mostly-family-recipe food is a time-honored method of garnering approval on

Extractions: Full Review Exactly two weeks before Thanksgiving our stove died. It's the stove that came with the house we bought a year and a half ago, and we've been waging a battle with it ever since. First we had to replace the controller because it would start beeping randomly at all times of the day and night (LOUDLY). Then we had to use one of those grill lighters to light the front burners. Then the oven started taking up to 15 minutes just to light
