Are you hosting thAnksgiving?

IT’S ABOUT TIME

By Heather Christo | Special To The Eagle

ntertaining a slew of family and friends can be a daunting task on Thanksgiving. Keep the following in mind during the weeks leading up to the big day to ensure you’re a calm (and thankful!) kitchenista once it arrives:

an appetizer

or a pie. Also, don’t be afraid to let people come in the kitchen and help get dinner on. You always need someone to toss the salad or bring the green beans to the table. Accepting help will make things easier on you and make your guests feel helpful and included.

• Be sure to use some of your trusted family recipes. Family and traditions are what Thanksgiving is all about. • If you have never made some of the recipes that you want to serve, make sure you try out some of the dishes months or weeks ahead of time — you don’t want to wind up panicked or disappointed with what you make on a such a food-centric holiday. • Make a detailed prep and shopping list at least a week ahead of time. If you are well organized, it will save you a ton of time and confusion the day of. And speaking of shopping: Please don’t save it until the day of. The crowds and potential slim selection will only add unnecessary stress. • Do as much prep work as possible early in the day and even the day before. I will chop vegetables for stuffing and store them in airtight containers, make salad dressings and parts of desserts — anything I can get done ahead helps tremendously. • Try not to do too much! The first time I ever hosted Thanksgiving I tried to make two turkeys and about 12 side dishes. Even as a professional, I was completely stressed out and totally over-extended. You want to be able to enjoy your family not spend the entire time in the kitchen.

• Don’t be afraid to delegate some of the work. Let friends or family bring a side dish,

• Set the table a couple days ahead of time so that you don’t have to worry about it the day of. You can do everything from the flatware to the glasses and napkins. You also can do the flowers a day ahead and keep them in a cool place. • This is also a great time of year to use seasonal and natural items to decorate with. I love to let my little girls collect pretty leaves, which we press. Then we will use them as name cards or spray paint them gold or copper and use them at the base of candles and in floral arrangements. There are also great alternatives to traditional flowers: rose hips, eucalyptus and apples or using a variety of squashes and gourds to make a really beautiful centerpiece. • Start a new family tradition. Especially if you are throwing Thanksgiving for the firsttime. Put your spin on it. I know one large family that organizes a football game at a park early in the day. Another family requests each guest bring food or clothes for those less fortunate, and they go drop it off before they eat dinner. Whatever it is that makes your friends and family feel good and allows for you to spend great time together, go for it!

Bounty & BeAuty Special to The Eagle

Thanksgiving decorating ideas can be bountiful when you allow your imagination, creativity and natural flair to emerge. Try these simple tips to give your home a warm, autumnal look for Thanksgiving: SeaSonal itemS

Pumpkins, gourds, harvest corn, acorns and leaves are all items that make a seasonal statement in Thanksgiving décor. Other items to consider when creating fall wreaths, garlands and table centerpieces are sprays of cranberries, turkey feathers and ribbons in fall colors — orange, gold, yellow, brown, burgundy and even purple.

CornuCopia A cornucopia to set on a mantle or as the showpiece of your dining table is a simple and beautiful decoration. Wicker or rattan cornucopia baskets can be found at craft and hobby stores. Select one that will be large enough to hold small gourds, miniature pumpkins, harvest corn and acorns. Purchase two to three yards of ribbon in a fall color to match your room décor. Attach the ribbon around the wide part of the cornucopia and tie a bow so it sets askew near the top. Arrange the items so they appear to spill out. Set the cornucopia atop a fall-colored table linen.

Fall wreatHS

Wreaths do not have to be traditional or even circular. Let your imagination and creativity flow to create a wreath that wows your guests. Consider wreath made from silk wheat fronds and ribbons in rich gold, purple and burgundy. Create an eye-catching Thanksgiving wreath using twigs to form a base. With florist wire and hot glue, attach gourds, harvest corn and silk fall leaves. Garland A versatile holiday decoration, garland can be used inside and out. Garland does not need to be restricted to fall leaves. Consider using twig swags with berries in reds and purples.

‘Leafy’ sweets

A feast for the eyes, these tasty cookies are dressed to party

Imagine maple trees after the first frost, glowing red and yellow, and you’ve grasped the inspiration for these spicy leaf cookies. To make them, you can use our recipe or your own favorite rollout dough. If you’re more comfortable with an old friend, make sure the dough is very light-colored, so that gel food coloring will show up brightly. If you knead in the colors by hand, please consider wearing plastic gloves. Otherwise, your hands could match your cookies. Another tip: We don’t recommend eating raw dough because uncooked eggs can present problems. So it might be a good idea to make these leaves when your resident cookie dough fiends are looking the other way. Each of these vivid leaves has its own unique pattern. They make notable treats or desserts. Nicely gift-wrapped, they’re a delicious way to wish teachers and family friends a happy holiday.

To make cookies

This recipe is based on one in “One Dough, Fifty Cookies,” by Leslie Glover Pendleton. Feel free to experiment with other spice combinations or flavorings.

STep 1: Scoop colored dough in various amounts onto a sheet of waxed paper. Place another sheet of waxed paper on top, and roll out dough to 1/4 inch thick. This reconnects the dough in an abstract pattern.

Makes 4 to 4 1/2 dozen cookies. • 2 cups (4 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature • 1 2/3 cups granulated sugar • 4 egg yolks • 4 teaspoons pure vanilla extract • 4 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour • 1 teaspoon sea salt • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon • 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves • 1 large egg white • Red, green and yellow gel food coloring (available in the cake decorating aisle) • White sugar sprinkles

The first step in fashioning these cookies looks a bit messy, but be brave.

Place butter in the bowl of an electric mixer and beat smooth. Add sugar a little at a time, letting the butter absorb it before pouring in more. Beat in the yolks, one at a time, combining each one with the butter mixture before dropping in the next one. Add vanilla extract. Into a separate bowl, sift flour, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. With the mixer speed on low, spoon the dry ingredients into the wet. Beat just until combined. Divide the dough into three roughly equal portions. Use gel food coloring to tint them red, green and yellow.

Once cut, chill the unbaked mass of dough until it’s quite firm, so the cookies can be detached without tearing.

After baking, the white sprinkles will look like frost.

STep 2: Use a cookie cutter to create leaf shapes. Make sure each cookie includes all three colors. Refrigerate the entire mass of dough until the unbaked cookies can be detached and moved without being torn or broken. STep 3: Line a baking pan with parchment. Heat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Use a spatula to move the unbaked cookies to the baking sheet. Brush beaten egg white onto each cookie and top with white sugar sprinkles. To re-roll the remaining dough, place the leftover pieces edge to edge on a sheet of waxed paper and cover with another sheet. Roll out the dough, as before, and cut out more leaves. Follow this procedure until you’ve used all the dough. STep 4: Bake cookies for about 11 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the pan for about 10 minutes. Use a spatula to place cookies on a rack to cool completely.

MINERAL BODYWORKS

Ease into the holidays with a massage or spa treatment, or buy a session as a gift By Shauna Lewis The Eagl Ea e

ineral Bodyworks or orks owner Russell Montalvo said massage therapy benefitted him so much after sustaining injuries in the United States Army that he decided to open his own massage studio in College Station when his military service ended. He owns Mineral Bodyworks or orks with his wife Natacha Montalvo, a postgraduate student at Texas A&M Unive Uni rsity’s Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences Department. In January 2011 they opened Mineral Bodyworks or in the Brazos Valorks ley Bank building on Texas 6 in College Station. The business needed to expand, so in February, ary it moved to its current ary, location at 547 William D. Fitch Parkway, in the Cambridge Court building. After sustaining a torn

rotator cuff cuf and a lower back injury during his deployment to Afghanistan, Russell said he benefitted from massage therapy in 2006 and 2007. “After months of therapy, py I was py, hooked,” he said. “Shortly after I completed my service, I moved back to Texas and put myself through massage school in Austin, so that I, too, could help those who needed pain relief.” Russell said he also wanted to eliminate the possibility of using any harmful products at his business, so he studied natural oils and their properties

to create oil blends that would help with massages and also be nourishing to the skin. All oils and body products used at Mineral Bodyworks or are made orks at the business and are natural

and organic. Services Mineral Bodyworks or specialorks izes in massage therapy and pain management. Massage

CLutter

reclaim valuable space in your basement and attic By Kathy peel | Special to the eagle

ften our stuff ends up in the attic or basement because we don’t know what else to do with it. Although organizing these spaces may seem like a drag, it will pay off for years to come. Follow these steps to de-clutter and maximize these prime storage areas in your home:

• eliminate what you don’t need or want. Take anything that can be fixed or used by someone else to a community organization or donation center. Throw away unusable items and fire hazards, including mangled holiday decorations, broken toys and sports gear, rusty tools and equipment, old magazines, canceled checks older than six years and empty boxes. • CateGorize remaining items into departments such as seasonal decorations, memorabilia, luggage and baby equipment. • Store items in sturdy, see-through plastic bins that can be stacked and moved easily. • laBel all boxes and bins for easy identification. Keep an inventory of items stored so you’ll know where to find them. • inStall metal shelving to keep bins off the floor. A shelf near the basement stairs is a good place for pantry overflow items such as canned goods and extra paper products. • attaCH a pair of old belts to rafters in the attic to hold skis or a rolled-up rug. • Keep important items elsewhere. Mildew, insects, rodents, changes in humidity and fluctuating temperatures make the attic a dangerous place for wood furniture; items made of wool, fur or leather; books; heirloom clothing and formal dresses; camera equipment; photographs and negatives; and stuffed toys.

SAFE SHOPPING

Thursday, November 15, 2012____________shopbrazos.com____________The Eagle

Find deals, avoid scams

Special to The Eagle

The convenience of shopping online makes it appealing for those who don’t want to take the time to go out and shop for items or for finding goods that may not be available locally. But shopping online is not without some level of danger. According to Federal Trade Commission estimates, upwards of 9 million Americans have their identities stolen every year. Here are some tips for shopping online safely: Reputable vendors. Safer online shopping typically starts with reputable vendors that have a known Internet presence. Consumers can start to run into trouble when they buy from unknown companies that have limited data on their websites. Be aware of phishing scams, which

typically take the form of emails from scammers who masquerade as a recognized company. Before clicking on a link or providing any sort of personal information, take the time to do some research and verify what is being presented. Don’t be enticed by what seems like a great deal and forget to check on the legitimacy of the claim. Shared computers. Protecting accounts is an important step in staying safe. Shopping from a shared computer, such as one at work or at a library, may not be the best idea. Data may be temporarily stored on those computers, and if you walk away without logging out of an account, you may leave yourself open to financial compromise. A safer bet is to shop at home, if possible, and be sure to have virus or malware software to protect your information.

encryption and security. There is a level of security attached to online buying, and many sites will encrypt data before it is sent. This is obviously adequate in most cases, but make sure a company actually has a level of protection in place. In addition, understand that hackers can get into company data, even if it is protected. The same goes for virus and malware software on a home computer, which should be updated on a regular basis. Ultimately, there is no such thing as completely safe online shopping. However, the same could be said about using a credit card at the mall or sending a check through the mail. Make sure you’re using common sense and taking a few precautions will, in most cases, allow you to shop online safely and securely.

rate spread set just for them. In creating the table, a bit of TLC with an extra dose of fun will go a long way and keep your kids from feeling banished by the dining room settlement: • Designate seating with labeled goodie bags. Fill each to the brim with healthy treats like granola or trail mix and secure with a snippet of ribbon.

THE KIDS’ TABLE

SHOP BRAZOS .COM

GettinG KidS involved Let kids become part of your family’s Thanksgiving traditions by getting them in the kitchen to help with dinner prep. Kids 4 and older can pitch in with any number of doable tasks.

Ages 4-6 • Wash fruits and vegetables for salads and side dishes, peel cooled boiled eggs, flatten dough and count cranberries. • Measure and sift dry ingredients for cakes, cookies, pie crusts, rolls and breads, turn on the mixer, set the timer.

Thursday, November 15, 2012____________shopbrazos.com____________The Eagle

• A table of youngsters guarantees spills and the occasional plate drop. Lay down brown butcher paper instead of linens and set with festively colored plastic settings rather than china. For tabletop entertainment, provide crayons and encourage kids to get creative on the “tablecloth.”

Ages 6-10 • Get centerpieces in on the fun by making a Thankful Tree. Start by spray painting a variety of sticks gold, orange, brown and red. Then place in a vase in the center of the table. Scatter multiple blank nametags around the display and instruct all your little pilgrims and indians to write what they are thankful for during dinner. Once they fill a nametag, ask them to hang it from one of the branches.

• Be sure to place the table within eyesight to keep things under control and to make little ones feel connected to the celebration.

• Mash potatoes, snap green beans, and measure and whisk ingredients in a bowl for pumpkin pies, and juice and zest fresh citrus. • Set the table, make placecards for guests, and cut fresh herbs and salad ingredients with kid-safe kitchen shears.

Ages 10-12 • Press pie crusts into pans, mix simple desserts like brownies, frost cakes and melt butter in the microwave. • Using (clean!) hands: Toss simple salads, shell pecans, peel and segment oranges, help crumble bread or cornbread for stuffing and punch bread dough.

Ages 12-14 • Help stuff the turkey, mix and measure salad dressings, cut potatoes for boiling, carrots for steaming, onions for sautéing and rutabagas for roasting — perhaps with a little guidance and preferably with a kidsafe chef’s knife. • Make a sheet cake or pie, cook rice, peel and chop white and sweet potatoes, measure and add spices to gravies and sauces, and help plate and garnish food in serving dishes. — By Stacey Norwood, Special to The Eagle

GET In GEAr how to stay safe on the road during severe weather Special to The Eagle

Whether you are traveling 20 miles, 200 miles or two miles, winter preparedness for travel is essential. To stay safe in severe weather, keep a winter car kit in your vehicle at all times. When packing the kit, be certain to include items that could help you survive if stuck on the roadside during a winter storm. FOR The cAR. Any vehicle on the road during winter weather needs to have an ice scraper and a snow brush. Make sure your ice scraper is sturdy and will not break if you have to chip thick ice. A shovel with a collapsible handle is an essential tool to have in your winter kit, as well. It can be used to dig out your vehicle when stuck in the snow. Include jumper cables, a towrope, flares and a reflective roadside warning triangle. A tire sealant is helpful for flat tires. TRAcTiOn help. When the roads are icy, getting enough traction to get out of a parking spot or ditch can be difficult. A winter car kit should contain a bag of clay kitty litter or a few carpet remnants. Kitty litter sprinkled on an icy patch can help the tires get enough traction so you can get moving again. Carpet remnants or even your car mats can help with traction as well. FOR The dRiveR. Drivers and passengers will need to stay warm if stranded during a winter storm. Keep a winter car kit packed with a blanket, gloves or mittens, hats, thermal socks, an extra pair of boots and hand warmers. Include bottled water and snacks such as high-energy granola bars, beef jerky and chocolate. OTheR eSSenTiAlS. Every winter car kit should include a flashlight with extra working batteries, a battery-powered emergency radio, paper road maps, a compass and a roll of paper towels. A metal can and candle with waterproof matches can provide a bit of warmth for hands and can melt snow if needed. Pack a small basic toolbox and include screwdrivers, wrenches, pliers, duct tape and electrical tape. FiRST Aid kiT. Every car should have a basic first aid kit year-round. Visit Ready.gov for first aid kit basics. emeRgency phOne. Survival-Supply.com recommends keeping an old cellphone and a car adapter in your vehicle at all times. As long as you have a signal, you can use it to call 911 without incurring any charges. The phone does not have to have service to call 911. According to SurvivalSupply.com, “You don’t need to recharge it or keep it charged. Just plug the phone into your car’s cigarette lighter, turn it on, dial 911, and it will work.”
