Zombie Gnomes Review and Giveaway

Does you or someone you know like zombies? Are you a little off-beat when it comes to your yard decor? If so, I've found the perfect item for you!

This, my friends, is Patient Zero.5, my new Zombie Gnome. Isn't he cute?! Okay, maybe not cute, but I think he's fun. He's hand casted from a concrete blend, hand painted, then sealed using an outdoor weather sealer. He will last for a long time in your yard!

Patient Zero.5 measures 10 1/2 inches tall, and he fits right into my yard (although I keep him peeking out from the side, so not to scare random passerbys!)

Because these are handmade, delivery can take 5-6 weeks, but if you order from Chris and Jane's Place Etsy site before December 7th you will get it in time for Christmas (for domestic orders only).

Chris and Jane's Place has also expanded to their own website. You can find it here.

Want to win one of your own? Enter on the Rafflecopter below and you can win a Patient Zero.5 for yourself!

Giveaway ends at 11:59pm ET 12/5/12.

The BEST way to roast a turkey...

I know it seems weird, but the bacon keeps the turkey SUPER moist! You only get a hint of bacon flavor, and only on the outermost meat, but it will be melt-in-your-mouth tender. I also cook it in an electric roasting pan, which helps a bunch and frees up oven space.

The downside is that if you use the drippings you have bacon flavored gravy (although the men in my family love it!) I just make another batch of gravy that doesn't have a bacon base, and everyone's happy. I love bacon, but bacon gravy is a bit much.

Whatever way you cook it, enjoy your Thanksgiving!
