O NOM NOM NOM!

So I went to the Crafty Bastards fair yesterday (report here), and thus was at Union Market. Tasty, tasty Union market...

I have all sorts of ideas for Thanksgiving dinner, and it will be glorious!

This year, ellen_fremedom and I are co-hosting, with a roast, a chicken, a variety of soft drinks and starchy foods to be indulged in.

What we need now is a head count...

Right now it looks like it will probably be a gluten-free Thankgiving, but that's not a worry -- Thanksgiving is all about alternative starches! Sweet potato pie, pumpkin soup, and corn fritters for everybody!

I've only made Bob's Red Mill cornbread mix, which I got from Whole Foods and liked pretty well! But as for the stock, stock made with onions/alliums is fine so long as you weren't planning on pureeing the vegetable matter into it or anything. It seems as though I really have to ingest onion pieces to have a reaction--see my explaination abovethread.

Also, I really like corn pudding! I could even potentially make it? I have a recipe that, iirc, is about 1/3rd butter.

AWESOME. I vote for corn pudding instead of stuffing, in that case. Do you want to make it?

I've also got one GF cornbread that requires only organic buttermilk, butter, and eggs for the liquid portion. Well, it also wants bacon grease for greasing the pan, but I think I can get around that.

I was going to say yes, but then I thought of transporting a hot casserole dish on the bus. Maybe I can bring sparkling cider and cookies? Do you need anything that's not too hard to transport? /o\

Hmm. Do you want to make a green salad? I haven't bought salad greens yet.

Or you could come over early and make corn pudding in my kitchen, or sous-chef for me while I make it. That might actually be the easiest thing.

I would be delighted to sous-chef! Just let me know if there are ingredients I should bring and when I should come over (how early?); I was planning on going to the grocery on Tuesday, probably.

Corn, definitely. What else does your corn pudding recipe call for, and in what quantities?
