Sweet Potato Casserole

I have been enthrawled with Sweet Potatoes ever since trying Sweet Potato Fries at a happy hour a couple weeks ago.  WOW!  Incredible and even better dipped in Ranch mixed with Thousand Island Dressings!!  Fabulous.  I was craving the fries this afternoon but I settled for this:
