Thanksgiving Decor

Halloween is over and Halloween decor is packed away for another year.

I quickly scattered what little Thanksgiving decor I have.

Thinking we need more though....

I have also kept some pumpkins and a few other things around from our Halloween decor that

has more of a Harvest feel to it...

What are you doing to spruce up the house for the upcoming Turkey Day?

Don't forget those organizations who need your help (year round but especially now)

Pet shelters

Food Pantry's

Toys of Tots

National Chocolate Chip Day

May 15, 2012 is National Chocolate Chip Day Today is National Chocolate Chip Day! Chocolate chips are an essential ingredient in dozens of delicious baked goods—chocolate chip cookies, chocolate chip pancakes, chocolate chip muffins, chocolate chip brownies, chocolate chip bagels, and many more. You can even find chili recipes that call for these sweet morsels! In the 1930s, Ruth Graves Wakefield created the original chocolate chip cookie at her Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. Ruth intended to bake chocolate cookies for her guests, but she ran out of baker’s chocolate. She substituted with chopped up semi-sweet chocolate morsels and discovered that the pieces did not melt into the dough as she expected. Her cookies were an instant hit. Today, 25% of all the cookies baked in the United States are chocolate chip! To celebrate National Chocolate Chip Day, pick up a bag of chocolate chips at the supermarket and bake something yummy to share with friends and cowor
