Vintage Recipes for Turkey Round-up and Caramel Star Blondies

Following are a couple of recipes from my mother"s old metal recipe box.  I love vintage recipes and received a treasure trove of them at her death.  These older recipes are quick, simple, tasty, and very economical.  Turkey Round-Up is a simple turkey casserole, excellent for using leftover turkey (or chicken).  With the current increases in grocery prices, ways to use leftovers are very important to many families.  Caramel Star Brownies is a recipe from a Brach"s candies advertisement that I found in mom"s recipe box. TURKEY ROUND-UP This is another recipe my mother got years ago from The Workbasket magazine. This little homemaker"s magazine featured recipes sent in by readers.  It also featured knitting and crocheting patterns.  It was a very important little magazine especially for many rural homemakers. 2 cups diced cooked turkey 1 cup frozen peas, cooked 1/2 cup diced celery, cooked 1 can cream of chicken soup Chinese noodles Combine all ingredients, except noodles, together in a bowl. Pour into a greased casserole dish, top with noodles and bake at 350 degrees until bubbly.  CARAMEL STAR BLONDIES This is a recipe from an old BRACHS Stars candy advertisement. This recipe brings back happy memories for me.  I grew up in a rural area outside a small town in Southern Indiana.  I have fond memories of going "into town" on Saturday"s for our weekly family shopping trip.  There was a little candy store on the corner down by the railroad tracks.  My mother would take me in there where she would get some bridge mix for herself and allow me to get a few Brach"s Chocolate Stars in a little white bag.  What a treat that was! 14-oz Brach"s Milk-Maid Caramels 1/3 cup evaporated milk 1 box yellow cake mix 3/4 cup melted margarine 1/4 cup evaporated milk 1 cup chopped nuts 12-oz bag Brach"s Chocolate Stars Melt caramel and 1/3 cup of the evaporated milk over medium heat. Let stand. In seperate bowl, chop Chocolate Stars. In another bowl, combine cake mix, margarine, milk and nuts. Grease 9x13 pan. Spread half of dough in bottom of pan and bake at 350 degrees for six minutes. Remove pan from oven. Sprinkle chopped Chocolate Stars over crust. Pour caramel mixture over the layer of Stars. Spread remaining dough over the top. Bake 15 minutes at 350 degrees. Enjoy!

Grill Like a Master with the Right Barbecue Grill Tools
Sure, a spatula and tongs that are specially designed for grilling are fantastic grill tools. However, you may need more tools than this in order to make your grilling a success. You can also grill different types of food when you have the right tools. For instance, youò€™d probably never think about grilling shrimp on the grill, but with a grill basket you can do that without the shrimp falling through the grate of the grill or getting too close to the fire.

How To Get The Best Wine Offers On The Internet
Finding a great wine offer on the internet is fairly hard to do nowadays. There are lots of companies competing with each other to sell their produce to you and sometimes trying to navigate through this minefield of special offers, cases of wine and sometimes even wine and related products can seem a little over the top. So much so that you can find yourself resorting to the local shop as buying wine from an online company can seem like a total nightmare. There are however some great deals out there and so it is a good idea to take the time to understand a little bit about the market so that you can steer a course through the reams of wine offers on the internet and purchase a great case of wine which you can then enjoy at leisure. Also you have to admit the corner shop isnt going to stock any little gems that you might be able to find from an online wine retailer.
