HMDWL 44! We love searching for the hot holiday toy of the year (Wii!), potato pancakes, and Rob’s Christmas soup tradition (with a little help from Cortny!).

We are also sad to report that Sara’s darling SallyPNut lost her battle with cancer on Saturday, Dec. 16. She was the prettiest princess and will be missed and remembered forever.

HMDWL 39 – The Thanksgiving Episode! We talk about our Thanksgiving traditions, and issue a new mom recipe challenge: Jungle Marge’s Cauliflower Au Gratin, with optional Cheese Sculpture!

To read about the history of the Cauliflower Au Gratin, head over here.

Some of some of Sara’s previous work.

Jungle Marge’s Cauliflower Au Gratin

1 head cauliflower
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1/4 cup milk
3 T butter
pepper to taste
3 slices Kraft Old English Cheese plus more for decoration (or Deli Deluxe. You want the thick American cheese slices, but not the singles in the wrapper.)
bread crumbs

Strip off outer leaves from cauliflower and trim stem so it can sit flat in the dish. Boil or steam cauliflower until tender, then drain. In a saucepan, combine soup, milk, butter, and pepper. Add cheese slices and heat until medium heat until smooth. Place cauliflower in greased casserole. Pour sauce over the top, lifting the head gently to be sure sauce goes both over and under. Sprinkle top with bread crumbs. Add cheesy decoration of your choice. The sky’s the limit! Bake at 350 until bubbly, about 1 hour.
