Sweet potato love

So, recently we've rediscovered the deliciousness that is Sticky Fingers.

May I take a moment to tell you about the sweet potato casserole?

It. is. amazing. The end.

The thing is, I've never cared for sweet potatoes. I would much rather just have a regular potato.   Which is really strange because I almost always choose something sweet over having something... er, not sweet.   Anyway, I made some of mama's sweet potato souffle for Thanksgiving and Christmas and I had to taste it to make sure I hadn't added a tablespoon of salt rather than a teaspoon or something crazy. Which is a real possibility when I'm cooking. Let's just be honest.  So when I was tasting the sweet potato souffle I decided that I don't hate it but that I do in fact love it.   I love it.  

I love it.

I love it.

I love it.

And now anytime I see sweet potato anything on a restaurant menu, I order it and weight watcher's be darned.  Actually, I just don't eat something else that I might have had that day.   I also love weight watcher's, have I mentioned recently?

Long story short, I've become obsessed with Sticky Fingers sweet potato casserole.  As in, I crave it as if I was pregnant.   Which I'm not, friends.  I am NOT.  But I want it at really inconvenient times.  Like 11:00 at night.  

SO, I've found a recipe that told me it tastes just like Sticky Fingers.  

It does not.

It's better.

It's like really runny, sweet potato casserole.    I kinda just guessed with some of the measurements.   But it being runny actually makes it like a dessert.  I'm eating it and you get these big mouthfuls of brown sugar and butter.   

That's all. I'm glad I shared this with you.
