November 1st strikes a new chord for most country fans. We begin dreaming of pumpkin pies, strudels, stews, and brews that will be shared with family, friends, and co-workers. Celebrating this month of gratefulness can also be a daunting task. Cody Alan is here to help.
Welcome to the "30 Days of 30 Dishes: A Month of Tasty Recipes" series found throughout the month of November on www.cmtcody.com.
We love to celebrate our pets, and November 1st happens to be ‘National Cook For Your Pets Day.’ Taking a cue from the CMT kitchen, try this easy recipe and give a little extra love to your pooch today.
