The difference between sweet potatoes and yams - Slashfood

The difference between sweet potatoes and yams - Slashfood: "The difference between sweet potatoes and yams Posted Nov 9th 2007 3:46PM by Bob Sassone Filed under: Vegetables, Recipes, On the Blogs, Did you know?, Holidays sweet potatoAnyone who has eaten either Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner with me knows that I hate sweet potatoes and love yams. I always thought this was weird because I assumed they were sort of the same thing. Now I know that's not really the case. And I've found one frozen turkey dinner from Boston Market (in stores, not sure about the restaurants) that includes a sweet potato casserole with a pecan topping that I've fallen in love with. These folks are trying to make November Sweet Potato Awareness Month. The site not only gives a detailed explanation of what yams are and what sweet potatoes are, they also give some great recipes, including Sweet Potato Cornbread Stuffing and Sweet Potato Apple Casserole."

Cuddly Chimps - I Want One Of Those

Now all we need are some midgets and we have a great comedy.




Cuddly Chimps - I Want One Of Those: "When you think of cuddly toys, you normally think of teddies, but we're not that normal, and so when we saw these adorable chimps it was love at first sight. Of course the first thing you have to do with a cuddly toy is put it through intensive and vigorous hug testing. The test results in the IWOOT office (even among those who'd like to think they're too hard for this sort of thing) went so far off the scale of huggability that we had to triple our order. The Chimp family (available individually or as a troupe) come in three sizes of Dad, Mum and Baby, and are the softest, squidgiest and most enchanting primates on the planet. They're real heart-melters."

Go ahead, just try tickling ElmoSapien - Engadget: "Go ahead, just try tickling ElmoSapien Posted Sep 28th 2007 12:13PM by Darren Murph Filed under: Robots As you've probably already figured out, only one creation can emerge when you combine Elmo and Robosapien: ElmoSapien. This admittedly bizarre mishmash of toys combines WowWee's Robosapien RS Media and Sesame Street's famed Elmo (or his costume, at least) into one creature that somehow manages to look innocent and menacing simultaneously. 'Course, there's only so much a picture can show, so be sure and check out ElmoSapien's adventures on video after the jump for a hearty chuckle.
