*** A WORD FROM THE KITCHEN ***

Thanksgiving is a time for having family around and we
hustle and bustle a few places but this year we even
have extra family in town. Oh what a joy! I'm not one
to be out the day after for Black Friday sales I'll
actually be sleeping in and I'm hosting a family
Black Friday Brunch for all the other non-shoppers
and those needing reviving after their blitz. It
is a come in your PJ's thing and I get to relax.

I'm very thankful for all of my readers who allow
me into their inboxes each week and I do hope you're
able to use lots of these recipe ideas. Today I'm
sneaking in a strange cranberry conversation. Did ya
know those can be a might tricky to get just right
so that you're not left with a permanent pucker for
the day, but done right let me say you're the envy
of the kitchen? If you can't quite get that cranberry
combination down I'm going to do a complete 360 here
and say just give up the challenge! Strange advice?
Not without good reason of course, just getting you
interested in a little something different this year
with this CRANBERRY CREAM DREAM SALAD instead ;o)

I wouldn't steer you wrong.
ENJOY and Have a HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!
(and look for some leftovers ideas on Friday)

PLEASE COOK THAT TURKEY GOOD!

When cooking a turkey, use a meat thermometer. Even if
you use a "pop-up" thermometer, it's a good idea to check
the temperature with a conventional meat thermometer. If
you don't have one, pick one up at the grocery store as
you're searching for the holiday items. Set the oven no
lower than 325 F and cook the turkey to 180 F in the inner
thigh. The juices should run clear. Here are approximate
cooking times for turkey, but use a meat thermometer to
verify doneness:

*** COOKING TIME ***
Weight (pounds) Unstuffed/hrs Stuffed/hrs
8 to 12............2 3/4 to 3.........3 to 3 1/2
12 to 14...........3 to 3 3/4.........3 1/2 to 4
14 to 18...........3 3/4 to 4 1/4.....4 to 4 1/4
18 to 20...........4 1/4 to 4 1/2.....4 1/4 to 4 3/4
20 to 24...........4 1/2 to 5.........4 3/4 to 5 1/4
