I have my nieces and nephews coming over to dinner on Thursday so I've decided I'm going to make it for dessert. DH will end up loving it - I'm sure (I did get hie to taste some pumpkin b. p. at a restaurant once - he really liked it even though he had a very difficult time admitting it since he says he doesn't like pumpkin or b.p.:). I'm going to make an almond version and studd with dried cherries and choc. chips.

We are having crab cakes for appetizors (I caught Tyler Florence making some yesterday. They looked wonderful (even if they were from T.F. I don't care for him - too arrogant)). And a Chinese flank stir-fry for dinner. Talk about an ecclectic meal:) Bizzaro. But I know the kids likes all of those things.

Merry Christmas to you and Mike and your families,

Deb
