Tomorrow is Thanksgiving and I would like to start early and give "thanks" to this "giving" hunk. You can see him strutting his stuff each week on "Dancing with the Stars". He is a total bad ass and hot as hell...LOVE HIM!!!

Y'all have a safe and wonderful Thanksgiving Bob Out
or hits the mark? Being a huge American Idol fan I love seeing what these singers do with the careers they are handed. Just being in the top 10 virtually assures them a record deal but they still have to prove they can sell records. I was super excited when I heard Kris Allen's single "Live like we're dying" but radio has yet to really pick it up. I wonder why?! It's a good song!
I was watching the American Music Awards last night and saw Adam Lambert perform the first single from his upcoming album "For Your Entertainment". I wasn't too impressed and thought it was a little over the top. However, I kinda liked that he was pushing buttons and being provactive. It was even censored for west coast viewers. "You know honestly, if I offended some people... it's apples and oranges. I'm not an artist that does things for every single person," Adam told Access' Shaun backstage following his racy performance of "For Your Entertainment," where he kissed male keyboardist Tommy Ratliff, who is straight. "I'm not going to be surprised that they edit it," he continued. "People are scared and it's really sad, I just wish people could open their minds up and enjoy things, it's all for a laugh, it's really not that big of a deal."
Watch it and let me know what you guys think. It's also been out for a few weeks and I've yet to hear it on the radio.
Plus check out his album cover... It's a little "Ziggy Stardust" meets "Xanadu" don't ya think? All skate, everyone skate. I wonder if glam rock will catch on in 2009!
Tim Bennett, the President of Harpo, accounced the show will end it's run on September 9, 2001. However, there are rumors the show will make the leap from network TV to Oprah's cable channel(OWN).
Oprah will speak to viewers during her show tomorrow. I'm hoping she will continue. What about you?
I first noticed him on HBO's Oz as Chris Keller. He rocked my planet on that show when he hooked up with a fellow inmate. Their sex scenes were so hot. He just exudes that hot, raw & manly sex appeal. He can be seen each week on the NBC drama series Law & Order: Special Victims Unit(hehe, I said UNIT).
I love Thanksgiving! What a great time to get together with friends and family and enjoy a meal together. I thought since Thanksgiving is next week it would be fun to share a recipe with you guys and hopefully you share one with me. If you have a favorite holiday recipe,I would love it if you would share it with me in the comments section of this post...a dish that you always serve at your holiday dinner...something maybe a little out of the norm...or a way to improve on an old favorite.
Here is one of mine...Pumpkin Swirl Cheesecake w/Ginger Snap Crust. I saw this recipe in a magazine years ago. I made it for my office Thanksgiving luncheon and everyone loved it. I've made it for our family dinner ever since. I also made it for friends to take to their family dinner. Try it, If you like pumpkin pie and cheesecake you will LOVE this.
Pumpkin Swirl Cheesecake
25 Ginger Snaps, finely crushed 1/2 cup finely chopped PLANTERS Pecans 1/4 cup butter, melted 4 (8 ounce) packages PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened 1 cup sugar, divided 1 teaspoon vanilla 4 eggs 1 cup canned pumpkin 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg Dash of ground cloves
Directions Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine cookie crumbs, pecans and butter. Press onto bottom of 9 inch spring form pan. Beat cream cheese, 1/2 cup of the sugar and vanilla with electric mixer until well blended. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition just until blended. Remove 1 cup plain batter; place in small bowl. Stir remaining 1/4 cup sugar, pumpkin and spices into remaining batter. Spoon pumpkin batter into crust; top with spoonfuls of reserved plain batter. Cut through batters with knife several times for marble effect. Bake 45 minutes or until centre is almost set. Cool completely. Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight. Store leftover cheesecake in refrigerator
I wish I had thought of this idea! McCormick’s new Recipe Inspirations make it so easy. Take a look, the spices you need pre-measured and labeled on the back, a very well-written recipe card that tells you what you need, how to prepare and even the time that it takes, and then a photo along with the nutritional info.
What a great idea! These packs will retail for around $1.99.
