If you're like me, the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade is a staple in my Turkey Day festivities. But, this year, I was traveling during most of the parade, so I missed a lot of the broadcast. Lucky for me, Amy Sciarretto has all of the country music coverage from the parade and I have to say.. we were well represented!

I read portions of this letter on the air Friday morning. But it was early and a holiday for many so I thought I'd put it up here for you all to read. It really goes to the heart of what our 37th Annual WBKR-WOMI Telecom Pioneers Christmas Wish is all about.

It is one part side order and one part dessert. It is to food what the Snuggie is to the coach potato. Pure, unadulterated warmth, comfort, bliss (and sugar)! If I could find a way to puree this stuff and run it straight into my veins I would. There are lots of recipes for it floating around (including Reba McEntire's), but here is my absolute favorite . . .
