Kitchen Tips and Guides

Thanksgiving is literally around the corner.

Are you starting to plan your menu yet?  I've been thinking about it.  Tossing around some new side dishes to thrown in with my standard ones.

Well, I found some great cooking guides on MyRecipes.com that I think every kitchen should have! It makes life easier.   I hope that you find these useful, especially with all the holiday cooking coming up.

First up is a guide to internal cooking temperatures for all types of meat, seafood, eggs, and even leftovers.  You name it, it's there.  A great resource.

Next is a Holiday Turkey Timeline.  This has great tips from deciding how big a turkey to buy, how to thaw a frozen turkey, different methods of cooking, to testing that it's done.  It even has tips on how to store leftovers.  All we need now are some recipes for the leftovers!!

Lastly is one of my favorites, a cooking conversion chart.  I ALWAYS need to know how many tablespoons are in a 1/4 cup and can NEVER remember!  This guide has it all, and it's cute too!

Happy planning!

Southern Sundays

Welcome to Southern Sundays !

I'm running out the door to go cook and sample some new Thanksgiving side dishes, but before I go I wanted to put up the party for you.  Hopefully we have some winner side dishes that I can share with you shortly.

Before we start I wanted to give you some Thanksgiving decor inspiration courtesy of my talented sister, Sue.  What a great tablescape!

Last week's party was fun, fun fun!  Dishes are getting better and better all the time!

There was one recipe that stood out by far...and got the most clicks!  

Congratulations on our featured recipe this week.
