1961 - Breakfast at Tiffany's is made into a movie, starring Audrey Hepburn, George Peppard, Patricia Neal, Buddy Ebesen, and Mickey Rooney. I don't want to own anything until I know I've found the place where me and things belong together. I'm not quite sure where that is just yet. But I know what it's like.... It's like Tiffany's.... Not that I give a hoot about jewelry. Diamonds, yes. But it's tacky to wear diamonds before you're forty. Breakfast at Tiffany's Holly.

Thanksgiving
Creating candy turkey at Thanksgiving has been a tradition for Nanny's family .I received this recipe from my friend Denise Harvey when my children went to school in Vintage Elementary,in 2003. Enjoy the candy turkey.
The turkey is a funny bird
His head goes wobble wobble
But all that he can ever say is
Gobble Gobble Gobble.
OREO TURKEY
Double-Stuffed Oreos
Carefully separate the oreo, hopefully leaving a fully intact white-based hydrox on one of the sides. With a table knife, slice a slight across the hydrox side of the area.
Chocolate Frosting
Now take the non-hydrox side of the oreo and break a straight line off of an end and frost it with the chocolate frosting.
Whoppers
Take the chocolate frosting part and set it into the groove of the hydrox base (forming a right angle).
Candy Corn
Take a whopper and push it in the middle, up against the chocolate cookie angle and then arrange and fan out the candy corn around the whopper on the frosting part.
Peanut Butter Chips
Finish up with dabbing a little frosting onto the back side of the peanut butter chip and place it on the front of the whopper to give the turkey his face and waddle.
Holiday Season
HOLIDAY PRETZELS
Continued a tradition of holiday baking with her family and kids, this year I made candied pretzels. I’m use striped paper that matches the rhythm created by the rows of candied pretzel rods. I’m title is stamped with holiday color red green and white ink and the use of snowflake embellishments furthers the holiday theme.
