Turkey Tracks Quilt Block and a Thanksgiving Recipe, Part 2

 
I found the pattern for this 9" Turkey Tracks quilt block here from Quilters Cache.  It's paper pieced, which is not my favorite way to construct a block.  I do like the precise points you get with paper piecing, though.  This block also goes by another name - Resolutions.

Here's another Thanksgiving favorite at our house:
 
Cranberry Pineapple Salad
1 (6 ounce) package raspberry-flavored gelatin
1-3/4 cups boiling water
1 (16 ounce) can jellied cranberry sauce
1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, undrained
¾ cup orange juice
1 tablespoon lemon juice
½ cup chopped walnuts
½ cup chopped celery, optional
 
1.  In a 9 x 13-inch baking dish, dissolve gelatin in boiling water. 
2.  Break up and stir in cranberry sauce. 
3.  Add pineapple, orange juice, lemon juice, and walnuts.  Chill until firm.
