Dear Family,

Family is fun to be with. And this is definitely a time for the turkeys - the really delicious one at my brother's house, as well as the ones on the highways. I can still taste the turkey Marie roasted. Somehow, it was so moist all the way through, that it almost tasted as if it been smoked. They were talking about how it seems to be a new fad to brine your bird. But, ah folks, kosher homes have always brined their meat. It's done to draw out all the blood, which we're not permitted to eat. OK, so it has some other benefits, too. There was some talk, again this year about deep-frying turkeys. Have you ever tasted such a beast? I wouldn't go to the trouble of doing that myself, but...I'd love to taste it. And speaking of good things...I finally put together a special shop for Aha! T-shirts and things.

Since my buddy, Boogie Jack has been  calling Small Business Taxes Made Easy, the book with the Aha! factor...I thought it would be fun to make some Aha! stuff for you. In fact, you'll even be able to score a $10 discount on a $50.00 purchase if you use this special code - 4CPCASH . The discount is only good until December 1st.

Oh, and you may have noticed that I've put the Amazon link
to The Book up on the site. Gee they've got a low price.
McGraw-Hill tells me it will be rolling off the presses
on Monday. They'll be in the stores by the middle of next
month. (Some of you might find your names in the book...
check out the acknowledgements.) Well, looks like it's
time to see about hitting the radio circuit. I'll do my
best to let you know where you can tune in.

Oh yes, I made a oopsie in last week's issue, when it
came to the mileage rates. Two angels were nice enough
to set me straight - Bill Giedeman, EA and David Mellem
(See...it's time to get my eyes checked. I've been putting
it off since last November.)

Have a great weekend...and enjoy this time off.
We need days like this, don't we.

Best wishes,
Eva Rosenberg, EA
