Always the busiest shopping weekend of the year, many of the merchants along Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard, Alberta Street, Killingworth Street and Missis sippi Avenue are participating in this North-Northeast Portland Business As sociation event on both Friday, Nov. 28 and Saturday, Nov. 29. Special presentations are planned cel ebrating Christmas, K wanzaa and Eid, an Islamic feast day marking the end of Ramadan. The area businesses also plan to decorate windows, host workshops, offer special discounts, and provide games and live entertainment. A horse-drawn trolley and Billy Bus will transport shoppers between the neigh borhoods with designated park and ride stations along the route. “Shopping locally with small busi nesses creates jobs and circulates the money in the community," said O.B. Hill, owner of Reflections Mirror Image Book store. For more information, contact Bridget Bayerof the NNEBA at 503-998-5121.

Both ev en ts Tangy Recipe Gives Thanksgiving Flavor Burst Orange Chili Roasted Turkey Ingredients: If you're not careful. Thanksgiving can turn into a gathering of unwanted guests o f the microbial sort, warns UC Davis Cooperative Extension food scientist Linda Harris. “It is estimated that there are more than 76 million cases o f food-borne illness each year in the United States, and many of those cases are preventable,” Harris says. To make sure you serve up healthy food and good memories, Harris suggests stuffing the turkey only when you’re ready to pop it into the oven, or cooking the stuffing in a separate pan; using a meat thermometer to make sure the turkey stuffing is heated to 165 degrees and the turkey is at least 180 degrees; refrigerating or freezing prepared foods or leftovers within two hours. To prevent the spread of harmful bacteria in the kitchen, always wash hands, as well as utensils and cutting boards, before working with foods and when moving from one food item to the next. • 1 Whole turkey, freshorfrozen and thawed; l/2c.butter; l/2c.broth; • 3 tsp.chili powder; 3 tsp.garlic salt; 2-1/2 c. orange juice, pulp free • Coarsely ground black pepper Instructions: Remove giblets and neck from turkey. Rinse turkey with cold running water and drain well. Blot dry with paper towels inside and out. Preheat oven to 325°F. In saucepan, reduce orangejuice down to 1 cup. Melt butter in broth with chili powder and garlic salt. Mix in reduced orangejuice. Cool slightly. Place turkey, breast side up, on a rack in a large shallow (about 2-1/2" deep) roasting pan. Use an injector to inject the mixture into the turkey, especially in the meaty parts of the breast and thighs. Sprinkle inside and out with salt and pepper. It's amazing how the simplest of spices turn the Thanksgiving bird into a punchy burst o f flavors that family will remember for years. This tangy recipe has a subtle kick o f chili that will leave you wondering how you survived Thanksgivings past without it. To estimate, a fresh or thawed whole turkey of 12 pounds, will take about three hours to cook, and a 20-pound turkey will take about four-and-a-half hours. Roast turkey in a pre-heated, 325° F. oven. Loosely cover with aluminum foil to prevent over browning, remove foil during last hour andahalfofcookingtim e.C ontinuetoroastuntiltherm om eterregisters 180°F. in the thigh, or 170°F, in the breast. Remove turkey from the oven and allow it to rest for 15-20 minutes before carving. Closing Thanksgiving Day Early at 4:00 pm.
