So every year around this time, my phone rings way more than normal, and I get lots of extra emails. ALL for this recipe. Not that I don't love talking to everyone, so feel free to call anyway, but I thought I would share this with everyone. The short story behind this is: We moved to GA, a few weeks before Thanksgiving. Bryan decided to sign me up for sweet potato casserole for the unit Thanksgiving get-together. I FREAKED! I don't even LIKE sweet potatoes. And I don't like MARSHMALLOWS, either! SO... I went searching for a recipe, hoping not the embarrass the both of us, being new and all. It is AMAZING! We eat this often during the year- pretty much anytime we have turkey. The boys devour it. And I have never had so many requests for a recipe. I am not joking that people track me down for it. So try it out and let me know what you think. We'll be having it here- and all are welcome to join us!

By the way, the recipe is from http://www.allrecipes.com/ which is the best recipe website EVER! I get most of my recipes from it- they are all peer-reviewed (so to speak)- so you kind of know what you are getting into before you start.
