Festy goodness, and random acts of kindness

Prompting is open at [livejournal.com profile] mini_fest! Signups are still open at [livejournal.com profile] sshg_giftfest!! [livejournal.com profile] hp_goldenage is going to have an anonymous promptfest this fall!!!

So much fun, so little time...

Borrowed from [livejournal.com profile] toblass and [livejournal.com profile] savine_snape:

After all the recent terrible tragedies that have and are happening it's time for some positivity and kindness to happen.

So, I'm going to grab the pay-it-forward idea and put a little twist on it. The first twelve people to comment will get a surprise from me at some random point during the next twelve months.

All I ask is that in your comment, you share something with me about yourself that I may not know otherwise. This might be a good opportunity for me to get to know my friends better as well.


Ooh, I can't wait to see what I learn ::rubs hands in anticipation::

We were 2 different dishes of stuffing family too. My nephew started demanding the boxed stuff (Stovetop Stuffing) when he was about 5 or 6 while the rest of us loved my mom's giblet rice stuffing. These days I combine the two recipes into my favourite part of the Thanksgiving meal. I even cheat by using Zatarain's dirty rice boxed mix along with the Stovetop.

I liked having the leftovers to eat all week too especially as I only ever had a sliver of turkey at the main meal while I gorged on the pounded and then breaded veal cutlets. My brother used to make a sandwich with the dinner rolls/buns and the cutlets. And I ate the garlicky, paprika sausage that she baked in a small casserole dish.

In later years my brother and SIL were not shy about asking for leftovers to take home and by the time they left, there wasn't much left over for US.
