My sweet potato gnocchi babies (uncooked).

Made a new apron last night because my old halter-top apron is fuckin' disgusting.

I have so much to be thankful for this year - family, friends, boyfriend, creative outlets, being young and not in debt, and of course, Hubski. Hope everyone is able to find a bit of comfort today.

This apron is killing me happy Thanksgiving

I'm pretty sure you could wear it to like a wedding and be better dressed than ninety percent of the attendees

Didn't use a recipe this time around, BUT I made it with this one last year: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/sweet-potato-gnocchi-with-brown-butter-and-sage-233379

If you're curious, here's how I made it this year:

Peel/chop sweet potatoes. Boil the fuck out of them in salted water. Once they're mashable, drain and mash in a big ol' bowl. Add butter, some brown sugar, some finely chopped rosemary, some freshly ground black pepper, and a bit of cayenne. Mix.

Crack (x) eggs into a bowl. I did 3, but it depends on how many potatoes you used. Mix well. Add flour. Again, it's all about proportions, so just keep adding flour until the dough starts to become more workable. Here is where you would add another egg if it is too tough/not fluffy enough. Put the dough onto a floured surface, and knead flour into it until it no longer sticks to your hands.

From here, I just do the same thing as the above recipe.

Enjoy!
