COMMENTS FROM MICAH
Here are Bailey Anderle’s Fishbowl Snowman Instructions from the recent Holiday Idea Gift Exchange:
You will need:
• Three different sized fish bowls that stack. (I got these at Michael’s, but I’ve seen smaller versions at the dollar store).
• Snow village pieces. You can use anything. Pick a theme and run with it.
The craft store, dollar store, etc, are all great places, or you can always pick them out online.
• One bag of fake snow. Have no fear, any craft store will have this too. One bag goes a long way.
• Small snowman hat.
• Scissors.
• Christmas ribbon for around the snowman’s top hat.
• Glue gun.
Directions:
• Put a little fake snow at the bottom of each bowl.
• Arrange your various snow village pieces or whatever Christmas trinkets you choose to make a special scene.
• Add your top hat to the top bowl.
• Finally, embellish the top hat with some Christmas ribbon.

When safely storing turkey, refrigerate within two hours (do not leave it on the counter all day).
Store tightly wrapped in small portions at 40 degrees Fahrenheit.
