Fri, 21 Nov 2025 20:15:00 -0500
Jeremy Miller, the widely loved actor who played the youngest son, mischievous Ben Seaver, on the classic 1980s hit show “Growing Pains,” and its two reunion movies, is cooking his three must-have dishes for Thanksgiving Day dinner.Beginning his acting career at 5 years old, Jeremy is best known for cooking up his boyish, trouble-making schemes on our TV screens week after week to the delight of millions of young viewers. Nowadays, though, Jeremy is cooking up delicious holiday dishes, rather than childhood pranks.As well, he’s also a motivational speaker and popular guest at events and conventions across the nation for his role as “Linus” in the beloved Peanuts animated Charlie Brown specials “Happy New Year, Charlie Brown,” “Snoopy: The Musical,” and “This is America, Charlie Brown.” Still, when it comes to cooking, “I got my passion for cooking from my Grandmother, seeing how she loved feeding people, including her family, friends, and neighbors,” says Jeremy. “Cooking was truly her love language, and I grew up cooking at her side.”As Jeremy’s cooking inspiration and mentor, he learned every tip he could from his grandma about how she cooked everything, and seeing how much love she put into everything she did for those who meant the most to her.Where Jeremy’s Thanksgiving Food Traditions Began“When it comes to the holidays, my family’s food and traditions always started with my maternal Grandma,” explains Jeremy. “Thanksgiving was her favorite, and the dishes that hit our table were very 1950s and 1960s traditional.”His grandma’s dishes included mashed potatoes, stuffing, green bean casserole, sweet potatoes with marshmallows, turkey, and ham. Although Jeremy loved her dishes, his first two must-have dishes are his own creations of Creole Garlic Soup and Ham with Spiced Apples and Pears, the first two of his recipes that his grandma allowed him to add to their Thanksgiving meal.“They have become staples for our family and are a wonderful reminder that my Grandma trusted me enough to add my own touches to our Holiday celebration,” explains Jeremy.“The most special Thanksgiving memories I have are of cooking with my Grandma,” shares Jeremy. “She would have upwards of 150 people come through on Thanksgiving Day, and we would cook for days beforehand. I spent as much time in the kitchen with her as possible. Listening to stories of her childhood, arguing about who was better, my Dodgers (da bums) or her beloved Cincinnati Reds.” “The best Thanksgiving tradition is everyone gathering around the kitchen,” describes Jeremy, “Some people cooking, some people tasting, with family and friends laughing, telling stories, and reminiscing.”Jeremy’s third must-have dish is the Candied Yams, his favorite way to have them, and a dish he craves all year long. The following are the recipes for Jeremy’s three must-have dishes for Thanksgiving dinner.Photo credit: ©GettyImages/ ABC Photo Archives / ContributorHere Are the Recipes for Jeremy’s Three Must-Have Dishes for Thanksgiving:
4 Things Parents Should Know about Wicked: For Good
Fri, 21 Nov 2025 16:15:00 -0500
Glinda is a beloved figure in the Land of Oz as the spokeswoman for their beloved leader, the wizard. The citizens love her. They even sing soaring songs about her. In their mind, she represents all that is good and true – and stands as a shining symbol of everything they hope Oz can be.Her best friend, though, hasn’t had it so – well – good. That would be Elphaba, the green-skinned outsider who once attended college classes with Glinda during the day and stayed up talking at night, forming a deep friendship neither of them expected.Elphaba is known to the citizens of Oz as the Wicked Witch of the West – the magical menace who (supposedly) destroys property and (allegedly) kills people … simply for fun. She flies on a broom and lives in a mysterious lair in the forest – a hideout the Wizard’s palace guard has been desperately trying to locate, but so far without success.The citizens don’t know about their friendship – and Glinda wants to keep it that way.As if things weren’t tangled enough, Glinda’s fiancé – Fiyero – now serves as head of the palace guard and has been firmly instructed to find and capture the witch.Glinda, though, urges him to call off the search.“She doesn’t want to be found,” Glinda tells him. “She’s made her choice.”Will Elphaba ever be found? And can Glinda keep her secret safe?It’s all part of the new musical Wicked: For Good (PG), a continuation of the 2024 blockbuster Wicked that was the third highest-grossing film of the year. Both are adaptations of the stage musical.Here are four things parents should know:Photo Credit: ©Universal Pictures
