It's always a good occasion to make mashed potatoes with homemade buttery things (and the nice part is the buttermilk is made when the butter is). Hope you had a great holiday--- Mica, I may send you a few crosnes in a package—I think they’d make it to Chicago intact.

The bumpy tubers are adorable! My Thanksgiving celebrations (both!) were sadly lacking in mashed potatoes with homemade butter and buttermilk. I admire your handiwork! Fantastic Thanksgiving!

I am planning a Meat Hook expedition soon (and sooner now, with your recommendation) and hope your holiday was wonderful--- Melissa, those are Romanesco cauliflower and they truly are fractals. You can find them at farmers' markets around now; they are one of my favorite vegetables. Emily, thank you, and that’s so exciting on the FCI class and being able to see you in the city.

Looks like cauliflowers but I've never seen anything so funky (looks like a Burmese temple). If you could send me the name, I'd appreciate it. What is the first picture?

I am wondering about these particular quince---I think they should be more portly, as fruit go. You may be able to find quince, quarter and boil them for an hour or so, then stir in honey to make the paste; they have high levels of pectin. One of my favorite food bloggers, Shuna, has a <a href="http://eggbeater.typepad.com/shuna/2006/11/quince.html" rel="nofollow">great quince post</a> with more. Hope your Thanksgiving was full of wonderful wines (somehow I feel sure it was) and food--- Thank you, John.

And I'm so happy to run into quince again (I had it for the first time the past week). We had quince paste with some Spanish cheeses at a wine tasting (and rosemary roasted almonds). The chef wouldn't divulge the recipe but hinted that it was mostly fruit and honey. Anyway, I hope you had a wonderful holiday. What a lovely Thanksgiving spread.
