Seriously. Sweet potato casserole should have a great crust of brown sugar, cinnamon, nuts and the like on top.

Yeah, I know.

I'm not a big sweet potato fan -- it's only the brown sugar, cinnamon and the other bad for you stuff that makes it taste good to me. But I do understand exactly what you're saying.

Hmmm, I've not had it with nuts on top.

(That's what she said)

OMG, I could eat the hell out of some deviled eggs right now...

Hard boiled eggs, mustard, and mayo and salt n pepper. Guess what I'm having for dinner!!!! The husband is working tonight, so he won't have to suffer the after effects.

I can also eat the hell out of smashed taters. But I'm a little tatered out, precious... too many T-giving meals.

I think that's why a lot of people eat particular sweet potato dishes in the cultures that I am most familiar with. LOL.

Of course, sweet potatoes are eaten different ways across the country and around the world.

Hey, I started talking about moles. When I read that, I thought of Mr. Mole who was trying to marry Thumbelina.

I'm not going to be able to make it home this Christmas because of work. However, I'll be home after the auto show for 10 whole days. My mom said she's going to get 30 lbs of chitlins for me. She and I are the only ones in the family that eat them. I can't wait...licking my chops.

Growing up, we ate roasted sweet potatoes for dessert. My mom would just take whole, wash sweet potatoes, roast them in the oven and done! We ate them with no butter/sugar and they were still good and sweet (I still can't eat them with butter and stuff). I think now a days you have to doctor them up just because of how our food supply is prepared. I've noticed that most veggies from grocery stores have no taste anymore so you've got to add some flavor. lol

Again, MC has it right! I forget which restaurant serves "praline yams" but they are just so yummy!

I'm not a diabetic, but I play one on tv... Seriously, with the eye problems in my family, I would be foolish not to watch out for diabetes, so I take my sugar a few times a week, more or a baseline or such.

That said, I've noticed that if I eat a yam (which I love) or a sweet potato (not so much), my sugar goes through the roof! This is just plain, baked potatoes. Has anyone else noticed this?
