October?

Really? October? And its almost over? Um....where have I been?
Ok you were probably already wondering that, but suddenly so am I! So October is a very busy month for me. Between birthdays and my favorite holiday of all time HALLOWEEN!!!!

Yes I know only last month I was saying how much I love parties, and I truly do, but I always let them stress me out at the last minute. Its just in my nature to second guess everything, change my mind, come up with new ideas, and just flat be a perfectionist about it all. I really should give myself a break! But since I know me so well, I can tell you that won't happen!

I'm starting to think I need to collect Potato heads, cause I want the Star Wars ones! And speaking of Halloween toys I got a Fisher Price catalog in the mail and what was on the cover? This:

Compact Turkey Dinner

So I was thinking about this recipe I saw on
Food Networks Diners Drive-ins and Dives.
It was at Comet Cafe in Milwaukee. They make this turkey dinner and fry it, but not like you would think. When I saw it I had to try it, and ended up making a turkey the next weekend just so I could try

Good Eats

I'm a huge fan of Alton Brown and his show Good Eats on Food Network. You may have also seen him on Iron Chef America, Feasting on Asphalt and Feasting on Waves.

And the reason I am telling you that, is because I want to share the recipes I have tried. So far I
