From Denny: The recipes are all here to give you some fun for your holidays. Many are quick recipes, some exotic that take a little more time yet are worth the effort for all the kudos you will receive at the holiday table. There will be some serious lip-smacking going on and cries for second helpings! :)
As I've linked the recipes from a year ago I noticed that the network sites like CBS, NBC and ABC no longer support their food videos after a year, maybe less. Maybe it depends upon the popularity or just making room for the new and jettisoning the old? It's that very reason that this past year I began describing what happened in the video just in case the video was no longer supported years down the road. You won't find those descriptions in 2009 because, as a new blogger, I was not yet wise to the ways of how these sites operated. :)
The main reason I started this food blog was to collect recipes from my favorite newspaper food sections online that now place everything in the archives within a week on some or within a month. It used to be that everyone kept up their recipes for years and years but now with newspapers losing revenue they are trying to survive any way they can by charging for archives usage. The new trend is that the recipes are no longer available unless you pay for them. Our local newspaper keeps the recipes up until a month but then archives them - which is odd considering they don't own the copyright on those recipes since they were donated by readers in the area.
