Ok everyone, bring on your recipes... I got the idea for our turkey on Thanksgiving from someone here on the forums last year. So anything can be added cookies, cake, turkey, casseroles, breakfast dishes, anything. Hope you all enjoy! I got this recipe from watching Paula Deen on Food Network, these are so easy and so so good! You can make them anytime, but really good for christmas. Red Velvet Sandwich Cookies Ingredients 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour 2 tablespoons cocoa powder 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup butter, room temperature 1 cup sugar 2 eggs 2 tablespoons buttermilk 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 tablespoon red food coloring For the Cream Cheese Frosting: 1 pound cream cheese, softened 2 sticks butter, softened 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 4 cups powdered sugar 3/4 cup finely chopped pecans, optional Directions Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Mix together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a small bowl. Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs 1 at a time. Then beat in the buttermilk, vinegar, vanilla and red food coloring. Once combined, add the dry ingredients to wet. Mix until thoroughly combined. Onto a parchment lined sheet tray, drop batter using an ice cream scoop, forming 2-inch round circles. Bake for 10 minutes, until baked through. Cookies should be cake-like and light. Allow to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely. For the Cream Cheese Frosting: In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla together until smooth. Add the sugar and on low speed, beat until incorporated. Increase the speed to high and mix until very light and fluffy. Spread the cream cheese frosting between 2 cooled cookies and roll the edges in finely chopped pecans, if desired.

I feel lost in regards to TV's now. Im looking for a 37" to 40" inch tv ... Looking for LCD , No Plasma. Could deal with a 32" but hubby would rather have a bigger tv. Yes BB has the Dynex 40" in. for 499.99, but dont know much about this "BB" brand. Any help is appreciated, Thank You in advance!!!

same here!

Woohoo! Great Deal!

HaHa good one about the Duggars -Funny! LoL:tongue1:

i will be ... to see where they are going to have the tvs sitting at BB or Sears maybe Walmart havent figured out where im getting my tv at yet

i dont think ill be getting any sleep because of getting hubby a tv this year we shall see though

plan on putting the outside decorations up tomorrow! :) Supposed to be a nice day then rain on wednesday and thursday yuck!

ok... so whats better the dynex 40 in. for 499.99 at Best Buy or the Apex 40 in. at Target for 449.99 ... i know the Target one is 50.00 cheaper but wanted to get some opinions? Thanks!

my dd will be 6 months by christmas and she has so much stuff its not even funny so far for christmas

ok target has the cheapest one so far that im seeing for BF 246.00 for 32" Westinghouse

Would this work in the oven too? It sounds delicious... Do you have a specific recipe? I would really love to try this...:)

My favorites are Charlie Brown,Christmas Vacation, Home Alone the new york one, Polar Express(ive already watched it twice so far) , and White Christmas!
