October will be a very eventful month at Palmetto Ace Home

Center. The month kicks off with a brand new set of Red Hot

Buys, from Halloween décor to Scotts Lawn Winterizer. Along

with a BOGO sale on Ace brand LED Light Bulbs and furnace

filters. On top of all the great sales taking place, we have a

some great events planned for you.

On October 11th , from 8am - 5pm, Palmetto Ace is

partnering up with Habitat for Humanity for their first ever

panel build. Volunteers have the chance to help construct in

the interior and exterior walls for a Habitat home. Habitat will

supply all the materials, tools and safety equipment. To join us

for this fun and unique volunteer experience. To sign up con-

tact Hannah Burkhardt at 843-546-5685 ext. 3.

To finish off the month of October, Palmetto Ace will be hosting the

annual Household Hazardous Waste Drop Off and Paper Shredding

Event. Saturday, October 28th, bring that hazardous stuff you have

sitting around the garage and let us take care of it for you. Do you

have boxes full of paper work that you need to get rid of? No Prob-

lem! Bring it by, and we will shred it for you. The drop off times for

this event is from 9am - Noon. It has proven to be a very busy day

in the parking lot at Ace, so we ask that you be patient with the

traffic flow in front of the store and follow all signage. Improve-

ments are made every year and we hope for this to be the best one

yet!

To make this event a little more family friendly, we invited

Saint Frances Animal Center to host their FALL FUR FEST the same

day as our drop off. Drop the kids off to play a few games in the

yard, collect some candy from the trunk or treating trail, and paint

a pumpkin. Saint Frances will, of course, have a few of our furry

friends that are looking for a home. You really can’t go wrong with

a day of face painting, raffle prizes, food, and face painting! All

money raised will benefit Saint Frances Animal Center. It is a never

ending list of items they need to pay for, from heartworm treat-

ments and routine medical care, to your typical upkeep that comes

with a shelter the size of Saint Frances. All donations are appreciat-

ed more than you know! Fall Fur Fest will be from 9am – 2pm.

Ingredients:

10 cups (100g) air-popped popcorn1

1 cup (200g) packed light brown sugar

1/4 cup (80g) light corn syrup

1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter

1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar2

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

yield: 10 cups | prep time: 20 minutes | total time: 1 hour, 20 minutes

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees F. Spread the popcorn out on to 2 large baking sheets. Set aside.

2. Combne the sugar, corn syrup, butter, cream of tarter, and salt in a medium sauce pan over medium-high heat. Stir constantly and bring to a boil for about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and quickly stir in the backing soda. Pour the caramel over the popcorn and stir gently until all the kernels are coated.

3. Baked for 1 hour, stirring every 20 minutes. Allow to cool on the pan and break apart large clusters if desired. Cover the popcorn tightly once cooled.

4. Make ahead tip: This caramel corn stays fresh for up to 2 weeks in an airtight container, so it’s a great recipe to make ahead of time!

Recipe Notes:

1. If you do not have a popcorn maker at home, you

can simply add 3 tablespoons of popcorn kernels

to a brown paper bag. Seal the bag tightly by fold-

ing over the top. Microwave the popcorn for ap-

proximately 1 minute, 45 seconds on High, or up

to 2 minutes, depending on your microwave. This

method will make 5 cups, so you’ll have to do it

twice. Alternatively, you can use natural-style mi-

crowave popcorn that has no butter added to it.

2. Cream of tarter will prevent crystallization as the

caramel cooks. If you’re all out, you can make the

caramel corn without it. Just know that acidity

helps to prevent crystals from forming in your

caramel. Corn syrup does the same job too.
