a rustic apple galette (and many other holiday recipes)

a few months ago, i was asked by the wonderful women behind blogher.org to be a part of the blogher holiday guide.  four female food bloggers got together with erin vest (the beauty behind the queen of spain blog) along with some other ladies of the blogher community to do some food filming in a beautiful redwood city home.  a month later, blogher brings to you four female food bloggers with four great holiday how-to videos:

dani spies known in food bloggerspace for her great video demos shows us how to be fearless of the holiday turkey.  and you can't have turkey without the stuffing!  thanks to elise bauer of simply recipes, stuffing never looked so easy (and good).  say good-bye to the standard (and sometimes bleh) green bean casserole as stefania pomponi of citymama gives us her family twist on this traditional thanksgiving side.  and providing the sweet, sweet ending to your thanksgiving meal is yours truly with a rustic apple galette.

so, check out my return to the camera and plan your holiday meal with some fantastically simple thanksgiving recipes (we have the videos to prove just how simple).

i'm sorry but nothing on this blog interests me. of course, i am a professional chef who graduated from peter kump culinary school. i am not used to reading this amateurish drivel, even though i am a native of new york. many generations of my family were born and raised in brooklyn.

Jess, Jaden and I get the distinct impression this version of chiff0nade is DocChuck in disguise. After I defended you against DocChuck in that earlier batch of comments, this version of chiff0nade almost immediately started attempts to post comments similar to this one on my own blog, comments that have not seen the light of day and never will. You have a great blog here with wonderful content ... make sure you don't let the jerks of the world get to you. :-)

Hey jess-
Look up the IP address of chiffonade and in Typepad admin, "block" his IP from being able to post comments.

hey, jess,

i just wanted to let you know how much i enjoy your website. as a professional chef educated at peter kumps culinary school i have learned so much from you about how to do things the proper (asian) way.

now that i am a managing editor of seriouseats (ed levine just adores my tattoos), i will be using your wonderful ideas on the site.

also i will be recommending you on my own professional website where dozens of professional chefs (like myself) call me up for advice.

thank you so much for all the good ideas you have given us professional chefs.

jess, I simply adore your website.

you should know that jaden (at steamy kitchen) and dave (at the luna pier cook) are my very best friends in the whole world.

of course, jaden is my florida neighbor, but dave has invited me to come visit him in michigan (when his wife, the mayor, is out on business).

for those who have not yet enjoyed my website on MySpace, you can check out my posts on the CassandraCrossing (which i own). that is where i am bringing down the terrible sandra lee at food network.

i have also been succesful at bringing down that terrible criminal, DocChuck, who has been stalking me for years.

i think that he left his wife (a hair removal expert who once removed my italian mustache) in arkansas just so that he could get closer to me and my hourglass figure.

he is so old that he thinks that a fifty year old italian babe like me is a real catch. and that's cool, because i'm after his seven-figure bank account there in maryland.
