I found a cute thanksgiving-themed food a couple weeks ago and have been waiting for the perfect time to make it. Then our church had a fellowship and I was asked to bring something. So I decided to make these turkey cheese balls. I got the idea from here. Her turkey was made out of a bent piece of slim jim, a spaghetti noodle soaked in red food coloring, and yellow food coloring-dyed eyes. I didn't have any of that, but I decided not to worry about what I would make the head out of until I got to that point. I also didn't have a clue how to make a cheese ball, and there is not a recipe for it on that lady's blog. All I did have were the feathers:

Now don't let the title fool you--while these are cookies, there is not one shred of pumpkin in or on them.
1. Start with oreos. My friend told me how to make these. They are so easy and SO yummy! And did I mention easy?
1. Buy this at Walmart. You will probably want to buy 2 packets, because next week you will want to make this again. This packet is not with the mexican taco stuff, but down further with all the other kinds of spice packets. When your husband walks in the house an hour late bearing news that he has to work on his day off, and then he asks you to bake something for him, you don't exactly say no. Which is why, for the third day in a row, I actually made supper. Tonight's feast was pizza balls and grapes. Yes, together. Well, not together-together, but served at the same time. I got the idea for the pizza balls from pinterest. The recipe from pinterest had, like, 127 ingredients. I was only going to use four, but I forgot the seasoning, so I just used Pillsbury rolls (the Aldi off-brand), pepperoni slices, and a block of mozzarella cheese (cut up into pieces). [Smoosh out the rolls and wrap the roll around a pepperoni slice and small chunk of cheese. Sprinkle a small amount of pizza seasoning over each roll. Bake according to the roll package directions.] Mine came out like this (please ignore my splattered fridge):
Normally, I would just post these pictures on Facebook, but I think because of the subject matter, I need to make a whole post about it. While my son washed the rice, I called my mother, because I had carrots and didn't know how to make them. She said to peel them, slice them, and boil them.

Who am I, you ask?
In 2006 I had a stroke, and every day my husband encourages me to use my remaining brain cells to the best of my ability. I love to organize, make crafts, and go on adventures (safe ones). I hope that through my blog posts, you will be encouraged to accept and make the best of challenges God throws at your life. Categories
