As Thanksgiving planning and shopping begins I always try to come up with something fun that will be memorable.

I love doing fun little things at the place settings when the whole family gets together. Do you?

Here's a fun project that I posted before...but some are worth highlighting again. Whether your hosting a book club meeting -- or just looking for a fun place-setting for your Thanksgiving dining table, this is an easy project that will get lots of smiles.

It was in a recipe circular from the grocery store chain FOOD LION a few years back. Gobbler Cookies

What you'll need::

• Nutter Butter Cookies (this will be the body on your turkey)

• Fudge Stripe Cookies (this makes his pretty tail!)

• Small Pretzel Knots or Choc Covered Flipz (his feet!)

• Candy Corn (for the beak)

• Gummy Worms (for the gobbler!)

• Almond Slivers (for his spiky hair)

• Small Choc Chips (for the eyes)

• and white icing to hold it all together

• These turned out SOOO cute, but they did take a while to put together.

Here's another adorable and much quicker idea. Use some tulle to create a little hobo knot of M&Ms. The fall colors look prettiest! Then a few well placed pipecleaners and wobbly eyes -- you're done, and your guests have a little sweet treat to take home. GoBbLe * GObBlE

Look at the picture and then get creative!!
