What's On Your Monday Menu, RNYers?
This is the Cheesecake, I plan to substitute pumpkin for some of the sour cream.
Here is the Crust. I'm using splenda brown sugar in it and leaving the pecans a little chunky.
If you make it too, please let me know how it turns out.

I don't see why not, I think the sour cream is to help loosen it and add some creaminess. Yogurt would do the same thing and add more protein.

Ack, look at your car! LOL And your party spread looks awesome!
Speaking of stuffing, that might be why I'm so mad we're not staying home; no stuffing. My BIL is gluten sensitive or whatever, so he doesn't make it. I LOVE stuffing, and my stuffing in particular. LOL Maybe this is a blessing in disguise.
Good morning! I can't imagine snow. It was 86 degrees yesterday. I would actually like the heat to end! I learned a valuable lesson this weekend, I will not be baking this holiday season. I thought I could handle it but I can't. We're having a potluck today at lunch and I made brownies. I can't be trusted when a bakeL, couldn't resist sampling the batter, and the frosting and the final product. Ugh!
menu today is up in the air.
I have to have an upper GI this morning and sometimes the barium doesn't agree with me. Here's the plan:
B: barium ****tail
L: Greek chicken salad
D: brisket and asparagus
S: light and fit and SF latte
No totals since I'm sitting at the imaging center and it's too difficult to go between this page and MFP
HAVE A GREAT DAY!!
Good morning everyone. No snow here, but it is sunny and cold. I am only working two days this week. Yay! I will be going to my brother's home for Thanksgiving. He lives in Salem, which is about 40 miles south of Portland. I have a huge family, and his house is set up to be able to accommodate long tables so we can all eat together. I'm bringing the veggies, so I will be roasting carrots and brussels sprouts. I am very lucky that my family get togethers are a drama free zone. We all get along well and none of us are apt to start trouble. I do have one SIL who has some interesting ideas (e.g., the government should not pay for anyone to attend school past the 6th grade, because you learn everything you need by then). Mostly we just smile and move on when that kind of stuff comes up. If someone responds, it is generally pretty respectful.
On Friday it is the University of Oregon Ducks and Oregon State Beavers Civil War game, so I will be celebrating the inevitable win of the Ducks with friends. 
On Saturday, I am making a quick, overnight trip to Seattle to attend a friend's 95th birthday party. So, busy next few days, but it should all be fun.
