I am a heavy proponent of two things at family gatherings: 1) Serving yourself, because the potatoes won't seem to cook, there are kids running around everywhere, Aunt Terry is discussing conspiracy theories, the potatoes still aren't done, you can't remember your third cousin's name and you don't know how much longer you can...
Roasted Honey Balsamic Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Pomegranate Seeds
Seeing as it's getting to be "that time of the year", I feel like I should let you know about one thing I'm particularly thankful for: the fact that I never was served brussels sprouts as a kid. Â I don't know what it is about parents, but they seem to go through a phase once...

Skillet Pumpkin Cornbread with Cinnamon Maple Butter
As you may or may not remember, I finally made my way down to North Carolina this past summer to visit my cousin Ashley and her fiance Evan. I came back missing my cousin more than ever (isn't it funny how seeing someone after a few years actually makes missing them worse?) and also missing...
