Understanding the Banking Crisis
So how did we get into this mess in the first place? The answer, of course, is gradually.
Why Roast Turkey Is Always Dry
My Mom, on the other hand, is a kitchen witch. She can make a perfect turkey, seemingly only by talking to the bird while she cooks it. Every turkey's name is Thomas, and he's treated like the guest of honor. She claims it works on the same principles as playing classic music to encourage plants to grow.
Cleaning Up After a Big Meal

Pumpkin vs. Mincemeat: Which Pie Says “Thanksgiving”?
I will always vote pumpkin pie, regardless of which poll I'm answering. Seriously, the question could be "Ford or Chevy?" and I'd still vote pumpkin pie.
How to Make the Perfect Pie Crust
The crust is the key to making a perfect pie. Without a really great crust, you might as well be eating a pile of pie filling. (Which is also not a terrible idea.)
