Looking for something unique to put smiles on your guests faces this Thanksgiving ? This Turkey Ice Cream cake from Baskin-Robbins is sure to do just that! It is a glazed turkey cake with sugar cone legs. It serves 12-16 people and is $28.99. It is a great alternative for people who maybe don’t like pie, or for some ice cream to go along with the pie. You can choose whatever kind of ice cream you would like inside (I chose Oreo) and also whatever kind of cake (there are 3 choices). Some Baskin-Robbins stores have them on site in their freezers now, but if you want to be sure to get one, you must order it 3 days in advance to Thanksgiving. And the stores (in some area’s) are open Thanksgiving morning, so if your freezer is filled like mine, then you can pick it up Thanksgiving morning before approx. 11am. I cannot wait to pick up my ice cream cake on Thanksgiving and even more excited to see everyone’s face when I put it out onto the dessert table. This Thanksgiving I am hosting a Whole family Thanksgiving for approx. 90 people. I rented a hall and everything that is like a log cabin, and I am very excited to have this extremely unique Baskin-Robbins Ice cream cake to our table. The store near me also had these adorable turkey “cupcake – ice cream cakes” and Pilgrims. I am also going to buy some of these on Thanksgiving to put around my ice cream cake turkey to add to the adorable display.

In addition to the Baskin-Robbins Ice Cream Turkey Cake and additional Thanksgiving holiday cakes, debuting in December is Baskin-Robbins Red Velvet Cake which is 6 inches and serves up to 8 and the cost of the cake is $19.99. This decadent decorated cake is made with layers of Red Velvet Cake flavored ice cream and Red Velvet Cake frosted with whipped topping, garnished with red velvet cake crumb.

Disclosure- Thank you to Baskin-Robbins for providing me with gift certificates to get my Turkey Cake compensated for.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

I am not a vegetarian, in the least, but when I was approached by Turtle Island Foods to try a Tofurky for Thanksgiving, It definitely raised my eye brows. I just had to try this turkey meal made from Tofu. This is a Turkey roast that is stuffed. It has giblet gravy, Tofurky Jurky Wishstixs, a Happy Tofurky Day card, and also comes with an Amy’s Organic Chocolate Cake! These are 2 natural foods companies bringing Vegans, and people like me who are intrigued, a feast for Thanksgiving. The feast serves 6 people and has an SRP of $19.99. You can learn more and see the other foods that they offer by visiting : www.tofurky.com .

I will be doing a post Thanksgiving post to let you see pictures of me trying the Tofurky and tell you more on how it cooks and turns out. Please look forward to this post

Disclosure- I was sent a coupon for a Vegetarian Feast from Tofurky to try. All opinions about this product are solely my own.

FROM ME:

The tradition of the Elf-Magic elves started for our family last year. We were introduced to these wonderful new additions of our holiday family. We are loving carrying on the tradition this year with some new members who were sent to us. Although my children have had a sneak peek at the new family members, I haven’t allowed them to be out yet, as they don’t officially arrive until The day after Thanksgiving in our home.

After having a sneak peek myself, I just again fell in love with these little guys (and girls). I love that they are named in their elfin names and love that they can be shared with girls AND boys. One of my favorite things is when the elves hide out during the night and my children have to find them. The saddest part for me (and them) is when they are gone until the next year. The fun”ness” of the elves only lasts for a short time, so be sure to get yours today to be a part of the tradition!

ALSO, I am giving away a boy and a girl elf this year to help 2 families be able to start their own tradition of the Elf-magic elves.

Lastly, you can enter by leaving a comment  every time they tweet the video or contest (or both) leave a separate comment every time. You may do this as many times as you like.
