Love this idea!!! Also, if you're thinking of ways to run up your grocery bill to qualify for the free turkey: Buy a few Thanksgiving extras, like vegan and allergy-friendly alternatives and side dishes, that may not be readily available at your local food bank!
In light of the govt shutdown and SNAP getting cut for a ton of folks, I have had a fun idea for how to help. I call it "Operation Turkey Heist (legal)."

Allow me to explain...

A lot of grocery stories are doing a "free turkey with X dollar purchase" and food banks very much want those turkeys.

So thrilled to see DAUGHTERS OF THE LAMP on the USA TODAY BESTSELLERS’ LIST, especially during Arab American Heritage Month.

Our MG Book Club on #InkedVoices discussed THE TENTH MISTAKE OF HANK HOOPERMAN last night. It is hands down my favorite MG book of 2024. The story is engaging and painful and honest. The writing is a master class in craft for plotting and voice. @choldenko.bsky.social I'm not worthy 👏👏👏
