Christmas is Right Around The Corner

Letters to Santa

The post office may be doing letters, but the American Red Cross Rappahannock Chapter has a twist on their program - and it makes Christmas special for some child that might not have had a Christmas. Now more than ever they need YOUR help.

Letters to Santa, now celebrating its 21st year, is a holiday assistance program sponsored by the Rappahannock Area Chapter. Last year 765 local children received new toys and a winter coat through the program. Children one to twelve years of age, with their parents’ help, submit applications and letters via Social Services and Head Start. Then the letters are placed in binders ready for community members to choose a child to sponsor for the holidays.


We hope you will join the team of great Santas! If you would like to be a sponsor, please visit one of our adoption sites. Can’t come in? Just give us a call at (540) 735-0500.

Want a Great Turkey?

The answer; Dry Bringing Technique!
This technique is nothing more than salting turkey and letting it sit for several days. It's based it on Judy Rodgers' recipe that's famous with the gobbler cookers.
You know how turkey sometimes can be dry and bland...after dry-bringing, the meat is moist and flavorful. Even better, the texture of the meat stays firm, with none of the sogginess that can happen from added moisture.

Let us know how it turns out! Happy Turkey!!!

Cash for Flunkers ???

Goldsboro, North Carolina's Rosewood Middle School is selling students grade points for $20. Principal Susie Shepherd says her school is cash strapped. Students can use the points on any two tests of their choosing. "Last year they did chocolates, and it didn't generate anything."
Some parents offer kids money for good grades, is there anything wrong with the revers?

Bad Driving is in Your DNA?

Don't bother yelling, cussing at that bad driver, he can't help it -- it's in his genes! The study found that people with a particular gene variant performed more than 20 percent worse on a driving test than people with a different DNA sequence. That may explain why there are so many bad drivers out there because about 30% of Americans have the variant. Ironically, the research team had not set out to discover insights into driving but chose the driving test because it uses common skills. Researchers said they'd love to do new research and find out how many people involved in car crashes have the gene variant. (Reuters)
