Congratulations to the winners of our Fall Harvest Contest!

Scent of fall! Grand Prize Winner

By Cathy Lanno
I love the scent of candles in my home and when the seasons change, not only do I change the color palette in my home, but I change the candle scents as well. After the summer's floral scents have been put away, I bring out the spicy, cozy scents of cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla. (Claire Burke's Potpourri and Christmas Memories candles are wonderful). They make the room seem so comfortable and inviting.

Floral Topped Jar Candle!

By Judith Dobbins
Create a perfect small floral arrangement for any space with a jar candle. Use the cover top from the candle to glue a base of leaves, flowers and twigs of the season and you have now created an arrangement. Around the rim of the candle a ribbon or straw tie finishes the centerpiece.

Post-Thanksgiving Brunch!

By Jeannine Wender
Everyone has plenty of leftovers after a Thanksgiving feast. Most make soups and sandwiches with the left over turkey. Why not have a Saturday or Sunday Brunch with greenbean and turkey omeletes, Potato pancackes made with leftover mashed potatoes, and bread pudding made with the leftover bread.
Add some other fresh foods and have a more casual family get together.

Ballgame Buster Brown Dessert!

By Sharon Collins
Crush 1lb. of Oreo cookies and mix with 1lb. melted butter
Spread in 9" x 13" pan
Cover with 1/2 gallon of vanilla ice cream, softened
Press 1 1/2 c. salted Spanish peanuts into the softened ice cream and place in freezer

WHILE THAT'S FREEZING, COMBINE:
1 1/2 c. evaporated milk
2/3 c. chocolate chips
1/2 c. butter

Boil 8 minutes, stirring constantly
Add 2 c. powered sugar, 1 t. vanilla, remove from heat and cool
Spread over frozen ice cream and refreeze
Take out 5 minutes before serving
*This is called "Ballgame" Buster Brown Dessert because it is a great make-ahead dessert and there hasn't been a man that hasn't loved it whether watching a summer baseball game or winter basketball or football game.

The hot fudge is also fabulous on sundaes!

GivingGallery would also like to thank everyone for entering great ideas.
