It looks good on you *sheepish pause* but then what doesn't look good on you ??
A party sounds delightful...am I invited even tho I live so far away?
Absolutely you're invited !! as is everyone on here !! The only problem I have is winning the Powerball from now till the party to fly everyone in - if not, it will be a B.Y.O.P.T. (Buy Your Own Plane Ticket) party.

In re: Holiday drunkenness and all things related, my sober date officially starts on Jan. 2nd so give me a late date on my water delivery.

WLF Christmas Party
I'd like to be invited. Though I don't need to be on the catering committee. I'll just drink my calories for that day....
Well I'm glad you play nice guy with all of us. You are a dear.

Other forums I extend those (stfu) liberally and often. I'm really not a nice guy, I only play one on the internet.

Don't think I can make it to the party, but I'll try to send a replacement. You know, red coat, red hat, white beard, and he lives in Finland, contrary to common belief.

Aaah yes, it wouldn't be a Christmas party without the ol' bugger there. In staying with the "Christmas is for kids" scenario, I've looked forward to him bringing Elfettes on his personal appearances in my later years.
I really don't have anything else to add to my 'wish list'.

Oh no worries, I'll win it before Christmas. *insert favorite "yeah right" comment here*
Very small cubes, probably no bigger than half inch cubes - I like mine smaller the better. I've been off ground meat in my chili for years now.
I'll even go further and suggest those strapped for time or lack the culinary cleverness to buy 4-6 cans of Hormel Vegetarian Chili and a Honeysuckle Breast only, cook up the turkey breast and cube a bunch of the turkey meat and add to the chili for a healthy, reduced-fat, hearty chili. I know Hormel makes a turkey chili but there's something about adding your own turkey into it and slow cooking it. It's really well worth it.
No denying, the cold nights really start triggering the winter comfort food mechanism don't they ??
Count me in! I make the BEST cheese cake, last christmas it was peppermint with white chocolate. It's so far from lo cal that it should be illegal but I could bring it anyway
Sounds completely awesome !!
Insomnia pays off ?? well I did see this at 4:30am the other morning. It sure brought hope to cheesecakes lovers I thought (which I enjoy as much as the next person).
Chocolate Cheese Cake
Nonstick cooking spray
1 cup low-fat chocolate wafer cookie crumbs (from about 3 cups)
1 tablespoon plus 1 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 tablespoon instant espresso, dissolved in 2 teaspoons water
12 ounces light cream cheese
24 ounces non-fat cottage cheese
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 egg
2 egg whites
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 cup sugar substitute (recommended: Splenda)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, melted
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Line the inside of a springform pan with aluminum foil and smooth out as much as possible. Once lined, spray the inside with cooking spray. In a food processor, combine cookie crumbs, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, oil, and coffee and blend well. Press into the bottom of the prepared pan, and set aside.
In a food processor, combine cream cheese, cottage cheese, cornstarch, egg, and egg whites until very smooth. Add cocoa powder, brown sugar, sugar substitute, vanilla, and salt and puree until smooth. Finally, add melted chocolate and puree until smooth. Blend well and then pour into crust-lined pan. Place pan in a shallow baking dish and place in oven. Carefully pour enough water into pan to come up halfway up the sides of the cheesecake pan. Bake until edges are firm, about 1 hour. Turn oven off and let cake cool in the oven for 1 hour. Refrigerate, uncovered, until chilled, at least 3 hours.
Here's the payoff:

Probably 50 to 70% lower in every category.
Of course how does it taste ? Well on TV they do the usual orgasmic moans when they eat it but then that's what they're suppose to do even if it taste like doo doo.
