Holiday Cheeseball


This is an all-time favorite in my household and I always serve it around the holidays. 

We really enjoy it, and I love it because it's super simple to make if you have a food processor.

Gather your ingredients:
  

Holiday Cheeseball

+ 2 (8 oz) packages of cream cheese (brick)
+ 2 small packages Budding Beef
+ 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
+ 2 tsp Accent
+ 1 Tablespoon chopped green onions (dried)
+ 1 Tablespoon milk

  • Throw everything in your food processor (chopping blade) and run until ingredients are mixed together and smooth.
  • Place mixture on a plate.
  • Using a rubber spatula smooth into a ball shape.
  • Cover and let sit in fridge overnight.
Enjoy! 



Happy Thanksgiving!

Turkey Craft and Party Favor


I wanted to have a little party favor for the boys on Thanksgiving.  So I gathered together some materials that I thought I'd need to make this craft. 

It just took about 20 - 30 minutes to make these cute little guys.

What you'll need:


+ Movie-size boxes of candy
+ Kraft paper
+ Construction paper in various colors
+ Scissors
+ Glue
+ Tape
+ Markers


Directions:
  1. Wrap the boxes of candy in the Kraft paper.
  2. Cut out a circle for the belly and a circle for the face.
  3. Cut out fat triangles for the feet and a skinny triangle for the beak.
  4. Cut out almond shapes in various colors for feathers.
  5. Cut out a little red wattle.


Glue all the pieces in place and draw a face on your turkey and some toes on his feet. 

(I wanted to use the those googly eyes for the face, but we were fresh out.  The marker worked just as well.)


And, he's done.

My son made his; it was a fun little project.


The little one is now making Indian feather headdresses out of construction paper and glitter glue to go along with the turkeys.

:-)

It's raining here....perfect day for crafts.

Happy Thanksgiving...



Just a few short days away and Thanksgiving will be here.

I have family coming in from out of town, so things are going to be busy for me from here on out.

The next couple days will be consumed with cleaning, baking, and taking care of my family. 

I have so many blessings to count and am grateful for each and every one.  

Sending Happy Thanksgiving wishes to you.....And, don't forget to count your blessings.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
