Weird But True! Giveaway

I'm one of those people that loves learning quirky facts. So much so, I've read all of the Uncle John's Bathroom Reader books. To be truthful, I've read them all many, many times. Just one or two of the quips before I go to bed. We recently tried out National Geographic Kids, Weird But True. It's a book chock-full of fun facts! You never know when you'll need these little bits of knowledge. Johnny has been reading the facts and then we try to find more information online. For instance, The Amazon rain forest is home to giant rodents- called capybaras- that are ...

Walmart Turkey Dinner for $20 CLOSED

Congrats to Whitney, comment #214 and Jennifer-Eighty MPH Mom, comment #420. Thank you all for taking the time to enter!

A turkey dinner for eight as low as $20. Yeah, you heard me right. For as low as $20. That’s rocking, right? Thanksgiving-Feast-Prepared

Walmart is making that happen by offering Select Grade A Turkeys for 40 cents per pound. Make magic happen by following using this guide and your own personal touches:

One 12-pound Grade A turkey*
Three 11 to 15.5-ounce cans Green Giant vegetables
Two 14-ounce cans Ocean Spray cranberry sauce

One 5-pound bag of red potatoes
One 12-count package of Sara Lee dinner rolls

The fine print…*Prices and availability may vary in AK, HI, OK, NM, WI and at Walmart.com. Prices on select Grade A turkeys begin November 4; limit two turkeys per customer; weights and brands vary by store. Quantities are limited; no rain checks. All prices do not include tax.

If you are looking for more recipes, visit Walmart.com and their Holiday Meals section. Melissa d’Arabians from The Food Network will have recipes and video with Christmas entertaining tips and recipes soon.

In our house, Thanksgiving is a time for family. Hanging out with my brothers and mom…life couldn’t be better. I thought I would have a lovely Martha Stewart Thanksgiving this year…but it’s on the back burner. And I’m okay with that. Since I won’t be cooking the full meal, I’ll contribute by bringing one or two dishes to the table. One of the favorites is Pumpkin Sheet Cake. Let me warn you…it’s massive! A very moist cake with a lovely cream cheese frosting…the perfect ending to dinner.

Perfectly Pumpkin Cake:

CAKE:

4 eggs
1½ cups sugar
1 cup cooking oil
1 – 16 oz. can pumpkin
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda

FROSTING:

1 3 oz. cream cheese (softened)
½ cup butter (softened)
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups powdered sugar

In mixing bowl – beat: eggs, sugar, oil, pumpkin until fluffy. Stir together: flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, soda. Add to the pumpkin mixture and mix.
15 X 10 pan – 350° – 23-30 minutes. Top with frosting.

My favorite Thanksgiving memory is watching “The March of the Wooden Soldiers” with my mom’s sister. I think I was about five, but I remember it like it was yesterday.

When I was a teenager, we had soldiers join us for T-giving. My mom likes a big crowd on the holiday, and they needed people to feed some soldiers, so we had 6 of them come to our T-giving along with our family of course. It was so much fun, I’ll always remember it!

Here’s the recipe I use for using Cranberry sauce — it was featured on R/R last year? Big Daddy was a guest on her show and shared this recipe. SO tasty.
Ingredients
* 1 (12-ounce) bag fresh cranberries
* 1/2 cup orange juice
* 1/2 cup apple cider, divided
* 1/2 cup sugar
* 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
* Pinch cayenne pepper
* Salt and ground black pepper
* 1 teaspoon cornstarch
* 1 cup Granny Smith apples, peeled and diced
* 1 teaspoon fresh basil, chopped
Place a medium pot over medium heat with the cranberries, orange juice, apple cider (hold back about 2 tablespoons), sugar, cinnamon and cayenne pepper. Season with salt and pepper.

Bring liquid up to a bubble then reduce the heat to medium and cook until the cranberries start to break apart and the mixture becomes saucy, about 5 minutes.

In a small bowl, stir together cornstarch and reserved apple cider, and stir the mixture into the simmering cranberries. Add the apples and cook until tender, and the mixture thickens, 3-4 minutes. Stir in the basil and let cool to room temperature. Serve at room temperature.
