day before thanksgiving kitchen activity.

happy day before thanksgiving!

what are you making for tomorrow?
i am baking....(tonight, in my pajamas, socks, and an apron...)

OREO TRUFFLES!!!

recipe and photo from college candy.

also i wanted to make the legendary

DOUBLE PUMPKIN KISSED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

recipe and photo from picky palate.

but, 

every store i went to today (albertson's, michael's, and target)

has sold and/or put away

all their fall/thanksgiving stuff :(

no more pumpkin spice hershey kisses.

no fall-themed mini cupcake liners for my truffles.

goodbye pumpkins, leaves.

i have really been trying to stretch out fall.

my house is still covered with lots of pretty colors

of pumpkins and gourds and things.

i think they'll stay up a few more days,

and then go into the compost heap.

so, anyway, since i couldn't find the pumpkin hershey kisses,

i am going to use butterscotch chips instead!

i love cookies that have a LOT going on!!!

lastly, i am going to whip up some string beans...

french cut string beans, stir fried,

with sliced mushrooms, freshly cooked bacon bits, and garlic.

i hope they turn out good!

see what i made last year HERE.

(ie, pumpkin cream cheese truffles!!)

what are you making?

any good thanksgiving recipes to share?
