  • Learn how to make your turkey look just like this one!
For the past couple of days some fantastic local culinary experts (including Tamara Murphy of Brasa/Elliott Bay Cafe, Quill Teal-Sullivan of Oddfellows, and Jamie Boudreau of spiritsandcocktails.com) have been dropping by Questionland to answer your questions about everything from cocktails to turkey to dessert.

And holy shit, is there some helpful advice in there!

Quill gave one reader a fantastic-sounding lemon curd and cream cheese frosting recipe, Tamara suggested one surefire way to successfully roast a duck, and Jamie has suggested three easy but impressive cocktails every good host or hostess should know how to make.

And there's still time to ask a question of your own! They'll be checking in throughout the day to continue giving their expert advice.

Here are some other great questions that have fantastic and helpful answers:

Any recommendations for good, non-traditional (pecan, pumpkin) t-giving desserts?

What are your suggestions for the proper execution of giblets?

What are some tasty, fancy non-alcoholic drinks?

How do I keep my mashed potatoes creamy?

Questionland Experts: We’ve got your ass covered.™

Help Us Make Questionland Even Smarter and Win Prizes!

Posted by Megan Seling on Fri, Nov 13, 2009 at 1:46 PM

We have some exciting things coming up in Questionland—next week we're going to introduce Questionland Experts, where we invite local luminaries from various fields to answer your questions on specific topics.

But before we can do anything, we have to give the ol' gnome and mushroom a makeover. They're nice and all, but they're not that smart. They're certainly not experts. That's where you come in! Using the images supplied here, your favorite photo-altering software, and your wild imagination, make Gnome and Mushroom look like the geniuses they are!

The winning entry will get a brand new Stranger T-Shirt designed by Slow Loris (they're cute!), some movie passes for Landmark Theaters and the NWFF, and fame! Don't forget the fame!

All entries must be received by Monday, November 16, at 2 pm.

Click here to visit Questionland, get the original mushroom and gnome to work with, and then submit your entries.
