Thanks and Giving with the Stars
After an all too cute montage of kiddos singing Christmas songs via video, - Rachael was joined by Marlo Thomas and Anne Hathaway at the kitchen table. HOW CUTE is Anne with the shorter hair? (We’ve been a big fan of hers because I have girls and who doesn’t wanna be a princess like she got to be?)
Marlo tells Rachael about her charity work with Thanks and Giving Campaign to benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and Anne has joined the charity forces with the Lollipop Theater, which brings Children’s films to kids in the hospital. You can check out both charities and see if and how you can help by clicking here: Thanks and Giving Campaign | Lollipop Theater.
The stars always come out generously donating their time and fame to do PSAs for St. Judes, and we were introduced to one of the boys who is in the commercials with Robin Williams, Jack, who is very proud of knowing all the capitals of the 50 states. He even stumped Marlo! Also - Look for Anne Hathaway in the upcoming Get Smart with Steve Carell, June 20th!
Next up, Kara shows us how to make her favorite Cheesy Potato Snowballs. You can also check out her recipe for Cocktail Party Caponata here.
Still doing that last minute shopping thing? Regina Lewis gives her favorite three websites where great deals can be found all from the comfort of your computer chair - my kinda shopping!
*Shangby.com is where you can buy direction from Shanghai, for prices far below what we’d pay here. You’ll make up for some of that in shipping (or all of it if you live in Alaska like I do!) but it’s often worth it.
*Want homemade and you don’t have a Nana to do it for you? Check out Etsy.com where you can get unique handmade gifts from over 60,000 different artists.
*And if you want your shopping to do good, hit up ShopGoodwill.com - it’s like ebay, but all the proceeds go to non-profit organizations. And don’t forget to click here and enter to win your very own Sony VAIO!
What’s for dinner? Mushroom Ragout!
