The Armchair Chef Celebrates November 2007

November and December are busy months for those of us who like to cook and bake.

Here at TheArmchairChef.com, we will be celebrating Pumpkin Pie Day - November 21, recreating a Vintage Thanksgiving Menu from Gourmet Magazine - Issue November 1982, and enjoying Thanksgiving Leftover recipes from Guest Chefs.

Needlework Designer, Theresa Wentzler will be sharing her tips for baking with friends. She and her good friends have gotten together to bake LARGE batches of cookies for over 20 years!

I will be sharing an amusing, and delicious family recipe for Fruit Cake, and yes, it is more than edible… it is delicious! I plan to simply cut and paste Cousin Kate’s email with the recipe, so you can see all her amusing comments and asides! She and I, along with Cousin Eliza are called *The Triplets* and we are all avid cookbook readers! LOL We also have a love of color and we discovered a while back that all three of us had red rooms, but I’ll be writing about that on The Armchair Decorator! (Now that two out of three of us have moved in the last year, the red room fetish seems to have subsided.)

And… last but not least… I hope that you will join us for the 2nd Annual Holiday Bake Along, featuring favorite recipes and memories from folks in the Needlework and Quilting industries!
