Kim, your Fall quilt is so pretty! Sorry to hear about your wrist sprain, I am sure that is frustrating. The sweet potato recipe sounds yummy. I make sweet potatoes that are honey butter glazed and roasted in the oven, they are also really good.
We love sweet potatoes at my house too!! This does look and sound really wonderful! We will have to give it a try.
Wishing you and your family a Happy Thanksgiving!! :0)
Kim,
That's the exact recipe I have used for years from allrecipes.com! I agree - it is absolutely delicious!
I make this casserole except I bake the potatoes and I add a bit of cinnamon to them and to the topping. Also, this year I blended the casserole ingredients in my food processor. It made it very fluffy and light. Soooo good!
I make something very similar. Everyone loves the topping at our house too. Happy Thanksgiving.
sounds yummy Happy Thanksgiving
That looks delicious, I would have had that for dessert with the sweetness in it. I don't think we are as used to sweet with savoury as the Americans are. I hope you had a terrific day.
Yes! That casserole sounds absolutely wonderful! I'm going to try it and I'm not waiting till next Thanksgiving either! Thanks for sharing.
It sounds wonderful and I will try the recipe

Hi Kim,
Thanks for checking on me. The new job is great and I'm thrilled to have it!
I've completed a beautiful quilted jacket for my mother but have to wait to show pictures of it. Now I can move on to all the other gifts I need to make!
btw - this dish is very similar to the one my daughter makes :)
Oooh, thanks for sharing the recipe -- those look delicious!
