It's the Official Squidoo Thanksgiving Cookoff for Charity!!
Come on charities! Are you ready to win? Take the reins and spread the word about this contest. It's easy to enter and raise money for your cause. Just email all your volunteers, direct them to our Cookoff lens, and have them make a foody lens. Great apple pie recipes, best locally grown squashes, tried and true baking secrets, best coffeemaker recommendations, your family's Thanksgiving menu -- anything and everything food or kitchen, it all goes.
