Thanksgiving has always been one of my favorite holiday's to cook for.  Last year I did it up good with some old family recipe's, a few that i made up myself and some from cookbooks.  This year I want to see what YOUR FAVORITE THANKSGIVING HOLIDAY RECIPES are! So I'm offering up a chance to win one of our very festive Turkey Wing Brooms on my Broomchick Facebook Page

I want to know how you celebrate Thanksgiving?  Do you do the traditional Turkey and Stufffing and harvest veggies or do you do something different. 

In my house we do a more traditional Thanksgiving spread with a family twist!  My mother makes the most AMAZING candied ham that we have it for Thanksgiving along with the turkey and then again on Christmas!   Here are some pics of my last year's feast prepared by me for friends with just a little help from Amber on the pies. 

 

 

 

 

And of course we must not forget mommy's little helper!  lol!  Brutus got dusted when we were flinging pies around.  He's so cute!

Oregon Country Fair Sweep

The broom shop was hoppin' at the Oregon Country Fair this year!!!  So much fun!!  It's always a blast to catch up with friends and family and see what's new.   Our new booth space is amazing and this was our 3rd year there, i think people are starting to get used to it. 

In this photo there are 3 generations of Scheumack Broom makers! 

Thurman, Eric and little Jude!  I've been working with this family for almost 15 years!

Kitchen Brooms... behaving themselves nicely.  :)

Someone brought us this broom to re-plat (the basket weave on the top part of the broom) at the fair after 15 years of use..... still has plenty of miles on it!!

2 SPECIAL PINK AND BLUE KITCHEN BROOMS!! 

Every year, Emily (aka Little Broom Girl) brews up a couple of special batches of colored broom corn that we use to make special brooms to sell EXCLUSIVELY at The Oregon Country Fair.  This year so far she’s made PURPLE, PINK & BLUE!!!

I am offering 2 of these colored brooms to my facebook friends who can’t go to The Oregon Country Fair. 

If you are interested please go to my facebook page HERE and “like” it then comment on THIS POST.  Make sure that comment which broom you would like. 

I will leave this post up till Friday, June 22, then I will draw names to choose who will get them.  These brooms will be offered for the same price as a standard kitchen broom ($39 + $16 Shipping).

These brooms are not going to be available anywhere except for on facebook or at The Oregon Country Fair.  <3 <3 <3

The brooms are just a little bit richer in color then in the photo. 

Doing a Coastal Sweep

After celebrating the Noble Glass Grand Opening with my buddies at the glass shop I decided to run off to the coast because it's craft fair season again!  I've been sweeping up and down the oregon coast over the last couple of weeks with my good friend Travis and my brooms in tow.  Selling some brooms, camping and just having a relaxing good time. 

We started off last weekend in Yachats where we arrived in the middle of the night and awoke to a beautiful sunny day.  It was the first market of the year and it was a slow start in the sleepy little town. 

After the market we traveled up Ten Mile to visit my friends, the Hoods, where Jasmine talked me into making a shower curtain for the solar shower in the garden.  I think we are going to have to make several more to cover the shower stall but this took me about 2 hours, made out of bamboo from their back yard. 

I had a great visit with Searose on Sunday night then Travis and I headed off toward home and along the drive I discovered a new beach that i had never been to because it's been closed many times before when i passed.  It's simply titled "Ocean Beach".  I think I'll have to go back and check it out some more. 

After our brief stop at the beach we headed to Florence and somewhere along the way i let Travis talk me into driving south to Port Orford instead of going home... "it's just a little way down the coast" lol. 

Well, I'm glad i went I soon found many more photogenic spots to gaze upon....

A beautiful ending to a lovely weekend.  <3

CANADIANS WELCOME!!

I'm so glad to FINALLY announce that I have updated my ETSY store to include shipping to CANADA!!  Woohoo! 

I have found that shipping by USPS Priority Mail is the best way to go because it's cheaper and you have less problems with customs and taxes and also if you send a package and it gets denied they send it back to you for free (this was what really sold me on it). 

So WELCOME CANADIANS!! and THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR AWESOME MESSAGES!! 

Love,
Broomchick & Brutus Beefcake
