When it's time to Fall Back can Thanksgiving be far behind? Fall back this coming weekend.
This won't be a long post, but just wanted to remind you of one of the most fun things my family does each year. It's the guess the weight of the Turkey contest. I cut off the tag and, as soon as I buy the bird, and hide it. Everyone from the youngest to the eldest, except me, gets to try and figure out what this year's bird will weigh. Guesses must be submitted prior to the day of and before anyone sees the "BIRD". The closest guess to the actual raw weight wins a prize. The prizes for our family have ranged from decorative boxer shorts to Target gift cards. The individual weights, who made them, and the winner are announced at dinner. It's a fun time filled with laughter. I must give credit where credit is due, my late husband came up with this game. We carry it on.
I'll be back soon for a report on upcoming fun and holidays preps.
I bake a lot, I mean A LOT. If you need a recipe for anything just ask...especially cookies.
Happy Halloween and Happy Thanksgiving!
