Win $100 for your Thanksgiving Dinner Disaster story
By Register Online Staff
Did the gravy turn out all lumpy, or maybe it spilled all over Uncle Louie? Did the dog grab the turkey leg and hide under the dinner table with it, growling at anyone who walked by?
Come on, tell us what your worst Thanksgiving meal disaster was, and you might be the person to walk away with $100 from Vallerga’s Markets in Napa.
Keep your entry to 500 words or less and submit it by placing it in the story comments section below. You have until midnight Saturday, Nov. 22 to write your story and submit it to us.
We will select the finalists and post them here, plus run them in the print edition’s Food section on Tuesday, Nov. 25.
How do we come up with a winner? We don’t, you do.
That’s right, we are letting our readers vote via an online poll that starts when we post the finalists, with the poll running through Thanksgiving weekend, ending at midnight Sunday, Nov. 30.
The winner will be announced online and in print Tuesday, Dec. 2.
Don’t worry if you are not from the Napa area. The Vallerga's Markets prize is a local supermarket gift certificate, but you non-locals can still play. If you win, please consider donating the prize to the local food bank or Meals on Wheels.
(Note: Don’t write your entry in the story comments section. Write it on your computer, then paste it in to the story comments to make sure you don’t lose your work.)
