Friday Free-for-All: Thanksgiving Leftovers

PUBLISHED ON

November 26, 2010

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! I’m still more or less stuffed from yesterday’s feast, which I think means I did it right. Feel free to supplement today’s round-up with tales from your own holiday, interesting reads you found over the break, or whatever else is on your mind.

  • You too can make your very own Thanksgiving Leftover Cake, pictured above! Oh yes, friends — that is turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, and sweet potatoes in cake form. Bon appétit…
  • Jeff Miller takes a look at the other 255 pages of The Light of the World, Peter Seewald’s interview with Pope Benedict, that weren’t about condoms.
  • How to survive Black Friday. Though if you’re the kind of person who fully embraces Black Friday, you’ve probably been in line for five hours already. Or maybe you’re more of a Small Business Saturday type…
  • How the sweet potato is helping to fight world hunger.
  • President Obama defends his decision to grant clemency to the Thanksgiving turkey. Catholics debate whether, in order to promote a culture of life, we should be putting turkeys to death at all anymore.
