November 21, 2012 Everyone has their own way of cooking a turkey. In the oven, grill, smoker or fryer. Some use cooking bags while others baste it throughout the process. No matter how you prepare the main dish for the holiday table, we all look forward to our favorite parts.
November 20, 2012 Kids, the other day we here at KIX asked you guys what your absolute least favorite holiday food was. You can see the results here, or vote if you haven't. Well, the leader, not too surprisingly was Fruitcake.
But, in theory, Fruitcake should be delicious, right? I mean, people like fruit, and people like cake. Fruit pies are always good. So what the heck is wrong with Fruitcake? Are we just all collectively doing it wrong? Is there a right way? Turns out, there could be.
November 20, 2012 Thanksgiving is getting closer and closer, and there has been a barrage of shopping deals from cell phones to televisions, computers to laptops, food to clothes. The deals appear to be bountiful this weekend.
November 19, 2012 Kids, we all know this week is one of the biggest food weeks of the year. We all know what it is we're looking forward to having for the big Thanksgiving meal.
The question is, though, what DON'T you want?
While some fanatical Black Friday and Cyber Monday shoppers are already at the gates waiting to assault the holiday-shopping season with their fearsome craving for stuff, some retail analysts say the gates are actually open now and the race is already in progress.
Thom Blischok, chief retail strategist for Booz and Company says, “Cyber Monday has begun, essentially. No question about it.”
November 16, 2012 Kids, there seems to be always something happening in our area. You just might not know about what's going on! So, here's a list of some of the stuff that's happening 'round in our parts.
November 15, 2012 Kids, I know and you know that Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, New Year's and all the other holidays in between are coming up. And sometimes that can involve a lot of cooking! So what the heck do you do? Make twelve of the same dish? Not if you check out today's link!
November 14, 2012 Kids, the past couple of years or so I've been in charge of cooking Thanksgiving and Christmas Dinners for the family.
I live on my own, so I don't really do too much cooking on a day to day basis. I put milk in cereal and that's about the extent of it. So when it comes to the family meal, I like to think I make an effort and pull out some stops to make it special. One year I made a Champagne Ham, and it was a very sweet, flavorful dinner. Last year, I tried something new for Thanksgiving. I decided to put my small turkey - in the Crock Pot.
November 14, 2012 Everyone is happy to see a visiting loved one. Families are scattered throughout the country and world for many reasons. The holidays are a time when we get together with people we don't get to see on a daily, weekly, monthly or sometimes yearly basis. These are meaningful people in our lives and being together with them during the holidays is a heartwarming idea. Until that day comes.
November 14, 2012 We're all about getting into the spirit of the holidays around here at the station (if you don't believe us, just check out our Online Christmas Radio Station), but sometimes, folks can get excited just a little too early.
