feliciakwSo, I've re-watched SPN's 5.10, but it's just so emotionally exhausting, that I don't think I'm going to get to my write-up any time soon. Not to worry. I've got TWO MONTHS to get it done. (And anxiously await 5.11, which looks really intense and exciting and edge-of-my-seat awesome.)
But now that we're into hiatus, and Thanksgiving and Christmas are fast approaching, it's time to get in the holiday mindset. I'm baking pumpkin pie this afternoon, and I thought I'd take a peek at the recipe that's in my Northern Exposure Cookbook.
Now, those of you who know me, or who have followed this LJ from the beginning, you know that I love Northern Exposure. It ranks on my list of Top 10 TV Shows of All Time. It probably lands in the Top 5.
And the cookbook is one of the best tie-in books to a TV series I've ever seen. The comments from the characters are spot-on voice-wise, and the real quotes from the series are gold. Take a look at this previous entry and I think you'll get the idea.
So over the next few days or weeks, I might be posting things from the book that strike me as pretty darn wonderful or insightful or just plain fun. I also might be trying a recipe or two (the book does contain the ambrosia salad recipe I use as my stand-by). Because a lot of the recipes look like fun, too.
