In music video for Celine Dion's It's All Coming Back to Me Now, her love interest didn't have to be dead!! He could have been a regular motorcycle riding guy, not a ghost. He didn't have to be dead!

Got a provisional spot on my in-laws' Thanksgiving menu with corn bread. Happy with my recipe. Trying to nail down a permanent spot, wish me luck!
