Jamaican Jerk Turkey Recipe
How About Trying A Caribbean Jerk Turkey?
For the last few Thanksgivings, I have prepared non-traditional turkey recipes, such as Cajun turkey recipes and this idea of a Jamaican Jerk turkey recipe. Most turkey recipes I have come across similar to the Cajun turkey recipe have relied on deep frying the turkey as the means for cooking. I lived in apartments so deep frying a turkey was completely out of the question. However, I didn't let that stop me. If you would like to try your hand at a more exotic turkey recipe this year, why no...

Treats for the Tall AND the Small
Dynamite Desserts - For one and all
Perhaps this came about because I am a very a picky eater, or maybe it's just because I hate to leave anyone out. Whatever the reason, I decided to approach the dessert portion of the menu from a slightly different angle (um, make that height). Even as an adult I have to admit that my first thought following the words "Mincemeat Pie" is BLECH.  Pumpkin and pecan pies are also traditional favorites, but most kids aren't too keen on those either. Can't say I'm much for pumpkin m...
