Sweet Potato Pie II: The Revenge of Sweet Potato Pie
Medium sweet potato
3 eggs
3/4 c Condensed milk
Looots of vanilla
< 1/4 c brown sugar
Graham cracker crust

Wand blend all ingredients, pour into crust. Bake at 350 for 40 min or until no longer jiggly.

Smoother, but I liked the bit of orange in the last one. Will try another this week.

Pickled cabbage
Shredded napa cabbage
Salt
Brown sugar
Candied ginger chunks
Apple cider vinegar

Pack cabbage into a large glass jar, wedging a few candied ginger chunks in as well. Pour in salt and sugar, fill with apple cider vinegar. I didn't have quite enough vinegar, so I topped it off with some tea. Stick in fridge, wait a few days, sampling occasionally.
