Need a super-quick, delicious dessert for
Thanksgiving? How about classic pecan pie! This no-fail recipe is especially great for those
short on time or
new to the kitchen.

I originally thought I'd make a
classic Thanksgiving pie for this week's baking project. However, as you may know,
pie crust tends to thwart me. So instead of struggling about, I started thinking about ways to make a pie without making a pie.

After you have finished your
Thanksgiving meal, clean the kitchen and take a nice, leisurely walk. By the time you return home you will feel refreshed and ready for a piece of pie and a glass of champagne. Pumpkin pie is the obvious choice for a decadent dessert.

Pop singer
Justin Timberlake recently opened his first restaurant in New York City. Called
Southern Hospitality, it's a BBQ joint that serves exactly what you would expect from a Southern boy at heart: ribs, cornbread, hush puppies, and fried chicken. Many of the recipes are from his family's collection, including his grandmother's deviled eggs and pecan pie.
I guess it's official, indie rock and food do go hand in hand.
Last month I told you about
Dinner With the Band (a webshow featuring Sam Mason and touring indie bands) and now I'm telling you about a new book called
I Like Food, Food Tastes Good by food writer Kara Zuaro. The book, which comes out today (and has got me and my gal
BuzzSugar all excited), is a compilation of recipes from over 100 indie raaawwwk bands, including: Belle & Sebastian, Devendra Banhart, Interpol, The Mountain Goats, The Decemberists, They Might Be Giants and (my current favorite experimental folk quartet) Grizzly Bear (with a killer sounding pecan pie - recipe after the jump).
