Oreo Cookie Turkeys



Supplies: Oreo Cookies, White Icing, Malted Milk Balls, Candy Corn, Cinnamon Red Hot Candies
Directions: Open the Oreo cookie and apply a generous amount of icing to both sides. Stand one half of the cookie up in the icing of the other half. Place the malted milk ball in the middle and fan out the candy corn across the vertical cookie half to resemble feathers. Dab a little bit of icing on the red hot and apply it to the malted milk ball to make a turkey's waddle.
Enjoy your delicious creation!

A Plump and Perky Turkey


The November book of the month is called A Plump and Perky Turkey by Teresa Bateman and Jeff Shelly. This book is funny! The people in Squawk Valley were trying to find a turkey for Thanksgiving. They put up signs looking for a turkey to model for pictures and sculptures. Their plan was to eat the turkey on Thanksgiving but Pete (the model) was too smart for them. He camouflaged himself in the art work and escaped! He left a note saying Goodbye and he took the bird made of oatmeal as his modeling fee. The people of Squawk Valley were left to eat shredded wheat on Thanksgiving!
I made a connection to this book because I eat shredded wheat too, but for breakfast. On Thanksgiving my favorite foods are turkey and key lime pie!
