These chicken sandwiches have been a staple for race days, wedding, birthdays, several funerals, and hot nights when the idea of turning on an appliance is more than you can handle. They really are the best. »

Non-Americans are usually disturbed by the idea of pumpkin pie. But I assure you, the first bite will taste weird, and all subsequent ones will taste perfect. I usually roast my own pumpkin and puree it; you can also buy canned pumpkin puree. I also often use butternut squash which, technically, is not a pumpkin, but works really well. I recommend eating this pie with cream or vanilla ice-cream. It makes a great breakfast. »

It's best to make the tiramisu a day in advance, as it tastes better when all of the flavours have had time to soak into the biscuit.

The late Leslie Harpold's foolproof? Thanksgiving instruction manual. Interesting in an anthropological sense, and also Christmas is a BIT like Thanksgiving I guess.

I was lucky enough to get to try a few different single-malt whiskies the other night, one of which was this Lagavulin; another was Aberlour, which was sweeter and stickier (and probably more of a 'junior' whiskey, particularly if you have a sweet tooth).
