In DESPERATE need of a Cheesecake Recipe

As it turns out I have scared my poor, innocent, sweet, never did anything to me Sis-N-Law.

While talking to her last night about Thanksgiving, I mentioned to her the counter full of pies and the...um.... attempted blackmail. (Such a nasty word)

Her opinion was the scary cat lady comment seemed to express her opinion.

GEEEEE

A girl ask for a pie or two (or three or 10) and everyone gets all weird.

Well I'm back to behaving myself so I have agreed to provide a pie or two to the ten. :)

Isn't math fun?

So here is what I am suppose to bring, a chocolate cream pie, a boysenberry pie, and a cheese cake. (the cheesecake totally being my own idea)

However, I want a very specific cheese cake. I want a Hometown Buffet Cheesecake. Have you ever had Hometown Buffet Cheesecake? They are so yummy they are fluffy and light and ummmmm getting hungry here.

See this is what the whole blackmail thing was suppose to avoid.

Well since you all wont let me "blackmail" the least you could do is help me come up with a killer cheesecake recipe.

I will even ask nice, please, pretty please?

Do I get points for behaving?

My vote is to go to "Home Town Buffet" and buy one. Because if that is that taste you want, I'd never be satisfied with anything else. I'm personally partial to Olive Garden's raspberry cheesecake.

Marie Callender's has a really, really good cream cheese pie, though I think you might have to buy it at the restaurant. I haven't seen it at the store. I too love, love, love cheesecake. Yummy! It's my one sugar vice. I did notice the frozen Marie Callender's pies are 2/$10 at Winegar's, so go get some of those!

I have a recipe, however I have never made it myself. It could be a super easy recipe, or outragiously difficult... I wouldn't know. It is Aunt Josephine's (that would be my great Aunt... maybe Great-Great?) Clark Gable Cheesecake. I'll email you the recipe if you like. It is a bit sparce on the details; Aunt Josephine knew how to make it and didn't need every step. I do know that she had a big ole crush on Mr. Gable and would make it for him, hence the name. She was a caterer... not a stalker. =)

My husband is no fan of cheesecake. He is a big wierdo!

Kraft has the best chocolate vanilla swirl cheesecake recipe ever. It is super easy to make and everyone I have ever given it to loves it! Go here to check it out http://www.kraftfoods.com/kf/recipes/philadelphia-chocolate-vanilla-swirl-cheesecake-106926.aspx

It is awesome! People couldn't believe I actually made it because it was so professional tasting and looking! BTW, I love you blog, it is entertaining! :)

I don't have a recipie. I'm responding to comments left over at my place.

It says "cold" as a reaction because I pressed the button accidently. My wireless mouse does that sometimes. You did react as "hot". Thanks for that. :)

As for the RSS Feed - I have my blog set so it doesn't ping/trackback/or whatever, so it doesn't do RSS feeds either. Sorry, I wish it did, but I don't want it to be searchable on Google and such.

Hmm, I've got a delicious recipe for mini-cheesecakes:

Line a 12 space muffin tin with liners. Either a vanilla wafer or half an oreo into it.

Mix together 8oz cream cheese, 1 egg, 1/3 c. sugar, 1 tsp vanilla extract. Fill muffin tins 3/4 way full.

Bake @ 350F for 15 minutes. Remove and cool on rack in tin until room temp and then stash in the fridge for 2 hours.

Top with pie filling (if desired) or eat straight out of the fridge (like I do) :)

Our Christmas Letter

Each year I send out a Christmas letter and the one thing that frustrates me more then anything about the letter is that I can not include all the pictures I would like. That and Brent's rule that the letter has to fit on one side of one paper. I have gotten pretty clever with font size and margins to keep this rule. All you that have read this blog know that I am a sucker for pictures. So this year along with mailing out the letters I am going to post the letter with pictures. YAY ! So fun having your own blog to torture people anyway you want. Our Christmas cards were sent out on Monday so here in all it's digital glory is the letter again, this time with pictures. (Beginning of Letter) Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! We hope that this letter finds you happy, healthy and enjoying the holiday season. If you are like us, it has been a little bit of a difficult year dealing with increasing prices and a budget that isn't quite stretching to meet every thing you want it to...

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. It is always nice to take time out and spend time with family and enjoy each others company. I am looking forward more than I can say to our Thanksgiving break. I wrapped up my diversity class good, bad, or indifferent it is done. YAY! Reflections is all but done. This year we had 130 projects submitted three years ago when I started as the Reflection chick we had 9 projects submitted. It almost brought me to tears seeing all the kids projects and their creativity. So very awesome and soooo much work. The economy is looking a tiny bit better and it looks like we may get a little good news in the coming months. That will be a welcome break. All in all I have to say things are looking up. Which brings me to my thought for the day "As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them." ~John Fitzgerald Kennedy My greatest hope for this holiday season is that I can live by the spiri...

Hip Hip Hurray, Tomorrow is PIE Day

Well in a little less then 24 hours I am going to have to reset this counter.  I can hardly believe that it says 30 days.  I have to tell you I never thought I would make it this many days I really thought I would have to reset it at some point in time. It has been a huge motivation for me knowing that you guys are watching the counter.  Also, knowing that even if you didn't catch me in the time allowed you would see that I punked.  That I didn't have the self control, not to eat sugar. Every time I would think of eating a goodie, I would think about reseting the clock.  I would wonder who was online, I would wonder if I would get caught, I would wonder who would catch me.  By the time I got through thinking about all of that I would decide the treat wasn't worth it. Another motivation has been my kids, who have said, "Mom you don't have to reset the counter no one would know."  I wanted them to see that  I could be honest and not do something I shouldn't ...
