Chantal's New York Cheesecake
This was great! I've never made cheesecake before, and decided to give it a shot for Thanksgiving...I know so daring :-) I changed this recipe up a bit, for the crust I did a ginger snap crust (1.5 cups of crumbled gingersnaps, 1/4 cup of sugar, and 1/2 cup melted butter) and after I baked it and waited for it to cool I made pumpkin chiffon. I took off about 1/2 of the top layer of the cheesecake and layered on the pumpkin chiffon. This made it a double layered cake, half cheesecake and half pumpkin chiffon. The pumpkin chiffon is very light and frothy so it was a nice compliment to the heaviness of the cheesecake. It was so yummy, I'm making it for work tomorrow!

Creamy Chicken and Wild Rice Soup
This recipe was great! The only bit I changed was adding a bit more flour to make it thicker. Other than that, yum! My husband loves this soup!

Fresh Pear Pie
This was so very yummy...I was actually pretty lazy, I got the frozen pastry pie shells from my local supermarket, I purchased the canned pre-sliced pears in light syrup. I bought two of the larger cans and drained them. I also bought gruyere cheese, which I grated and rolled into the pie crust. I also topped crust with the grated cheese as well. It came out very nice, my boyfriend loved it! Ooh...and I left out the lemon, not huge fan of lemon in general. The pie was not sweet, but I wasn't overly generous with the sprinkling of the sugar/flour mixture.
