Thanksgiving Travesty!

Hey Everyone!

I know, I know...it's been way too long since I've posted something.  I've been working away on school projects and finals (I officially finished my project at 9:00 p.m. this evening....after SEVERAL weeks of staying up until 1-2 am); traveled to New York (pics to come soon); put up my Christmas tree; and signed up for Crossfit.  Oh-I also applied for a study abroad program in London and Paris, and am in the market to buy a house.  Ai yi yi!  And since it's been a while, I thought I would submit several posts...

Post #1 Thanksgiving Travesty.  
My mom hosted the family dinner this year and I was very prepared to help cook several dishes.  That is, until I turned my oven on and discovered it didn't work.  My landlord was out of town and wasn't able to have it fixed until AFTER the holiday (this is actually the event that made me consider home ownership..more on that shortly).  Anyway...
One of the dishes I was supposed to make was macaroni and cheese.  Since I wasn't able to make and bring on Thanksgiving, I made it for my family after my stove was fixed (a whopping 2 weeks later).  I usually use Patti Labelle's recipe but I'm considering something gooier for next time (think Paula Deen-hey, if you're going to go, go all the way!! :-)  I also use different pasta types; but this time I stuck with traditional macaroni.





Do you make your own macaroni and cheese?  What recipes do you use?
