I picked up this stunning scale at a flea market a few weeks ago with every intention of selling it.  Somehow I just can't part with this beautiful thing.  The perfect shade of green, the beautiful detail and the vintage coolness all added up to a fine addition to my kitchen counter.

My sister is hosting Thanksgiving this year and asked me to make the yams.  I have never made yams before and I have an aversion to the sweet yams with marshmallows all over them.  I am intrigued by the idea of combining the sweetness of yams with something savory or spicy.  Here is the recipe I've decided to make.

Chipotle Garnet Yams
