It wasn’t until moving to Texas that I learned that the stuffing I was served each Thanksgiving growing up is referred to as “Yankee Stuffing”. I just thought it was “stuffing”. Well, it turns out that there is a large assortment of regional stuffing recipes from all over the country. Not only that, but depending upon where you live, “stuffing” may be referred to as “dressing”. What type of stuffing do you serve?

Yankee Stuffing is a bread stuffing with celery, onion, and parsley, and jokingly referred to by some as “Stove Top”. But most regional stuffing recipes developed out of what people had available to them. Many coastal regions enjoy oyster stuffing. Cornbread stuffing is popular in the South, and Northern California loves its sourdough stuffing. Carrie Madormo, RN, a freelance health and food writer has written an article entitled, “We Know Where You’re From Based On How You Make Your Thanksgiving Stuffing”. She then shares 11 tasty recipes from local regions across the U.S.

So, should the dish be called Stuffing or Dressing? An easy answer would be to say that it’s stuffing if it’s cooked within the cavity of the bird, or dressing if it’s cooked separately from the bird. But again, this tends to be a regional thing. Most of the country will call it stuffing with the exception of many Southern States where it’s referred to as dressing. Why dressing? No one’s exactly sure, but apparently, it’s a result of politeness. Stuffing just sounded too crass, and Southerners didn’t want to use it.

Regardless of the content of your stuffing, or whether you even call it that – we at GatherCraft wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Did you know that according to both the U.S. Fire Administration and the National Fire Protection Association, Thanksgiving Day is the leading holiday for home cooking fires, followed by Christmas. Contributing to this statistic is the now popular way of cooking your turkey in a deep fryer! Deep fryer fires cause an average of 5 deaths and 60 injuries each year, in addition to $15 million in property damage.

Don’t let a turkey mishap ruin your Thanksgiving this year – let alone your patio and home.

Perfect Cheeseburger
1- Sprinkle the ground beef evenly with 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Gently form the meat into 4 balls, then lightly press into 4-inch-wide, 1-inch-thick patties. Make a 2-inch-wide indentation in the center of each with your thumb to prevent the burgers from bulging when grilled.

2- Preheat a grill to high. Season the patties with salt and pepper. Grill, undisturbed, until marked on the bottom, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn and grill until the other side is marked and the patties feel firm, 3 to 5 more minutes; if desired, top each burger with 2 slices cheese during the last 2 minutes of cooking and cover with a disposable aluminum pan to melt.

3- Serve the patties on the buns; top with lettuce and tomato.

You don’t have to run away from your patio or outdoor home, just because it’s starting to cool down outside. There are lots of ways through which you can have a functional and aesthetically pleasing patio during the colder months of the year.

1. Add throw Pillows and Blankets – There is nothing as comforting and soothing as having blankets to keep you and your guests warm as you enjoy a cool evening on your small patio. Throw pillows also create the same effect as everyone can hold onto a throw pillow to keep warmer. The overall decor also gets a boost.
2. Warm Up with an Outdoor Heater – Most outdoor heaters are propane-powered and are compact enough to fit easily even on the smallest of patios without crowding guests. So, while you sit with your loved ones, sipping hot cocoa and cracking jokes, the outdoor heater keeps everyone warm for as long as you choose to stay out there.
3. Add Some Cheer with Lighting – Adding additional lighting to your patio can really “brighten” the place up – especially when the days get shorter and natural sunlight is weak. Ambient patio lighting can make your small patio look much warmer and more inviting. There are so many different types of lighting that you can choose from that there’s sure to be a lighting style to match your patio décor.
4. Add a Patio Rug – The floor of your patio can become miserably cold during the fall and winter, especially if your flooring is made of a conductive material like brick or stone. Help make your fall and winter patio more comfortable by adding a soft floor rug to the patio, especially if you enjoy walking out onto the patio barefoot with your morning coffee.
5. Update Your Patio Furniture – If you’re trying to spruce up your patio for fall and winter, you could do worse than starting out by replacing your patio furniture. Not only is patio furniture the first thing people are going to notice when they walk out onto your patio, it’s also going to determine how comfortable they are sitting down outdoors, especially when the weather is cooler. Pick patio furniture with soft fluffy cushions that can help hold heat rather than flat, smooth surfaces.

Outdoor patios are an extension of indoor living space.

Throw in a GatherCraft outdoor dining set and some patio decor, and it can also become your favorite eating spot! Browse the following outdoor patio image ideas presented by houzz while keeping the following tips in mind. Patio Images

What to include in a patio design?

Patios can be so much more than a concrete slab if you add the right touches. Fire pits and fireplaces are great for cooler nights, while an outdoor kitchen and bar make it an ideal party mecca. Regardless of what you do, a spot to grill and eat is a must for al fresco dining, and you need good furniture to truly enjoy even the most basic outdoor space. Depending on your budget and maintenance threshold, you can even splurge on a few additional patio ideas, like a hot tub or pool to warm up or cool down all year round.

How should I incorporate patio decor?

You won’t have to look far for patio decorating ideas, since every little thing can double as decor outside, including plants and flowers. You should make sure that everything you do place outdoors, like furniture, is weatherproof. That doesn’t mean your patio can’t look as good as any indoor living room! Rugs, throw pillows and chair cushions all come in waterproof fabrics. Rope or string lighting are popular patio decorating ideas, as are candles, which can also keep bugs away. Fun little accessories, like a garden gnome, tiki torch, bird feeder or umbrella can add more personality where it’s lacking!
