YA READY FOR YOUR TURKEY DINNER?

at least my aunt's pumpkin bisque was amazing.

READY TO GET YOUR EAT ON????

oh is it thanksgiving?

what's thanksgiving?

huh?

Reboot.

I intend on a light lunch.

I woke up this morning and puked up the dinner I had last night! YEAH!!!!!!

(wait, no)

Happy regurgitated Thanksgiving.

Yay, Mandee.

I think we're having squash risotto and pumpkin pie tonight! We will raise a glass to transatlantic chums.

Back from my nephew's house in Birmingham, a nice visit and a good meal. The mantle of hosting and cooking has passed from my parents after decades, though, and it's weird to eat Thanksgiving dinner that doesn't taste like my mom's cooking.

Trying to keep it down.

And stay awake.

I ate too much of my FIL's cooking. He is insanely heavy-handed with the butter, cream, and salt. Which normally I'd be all for. I should have just stuck with one kind of pie for dessert, but noooooo.... It was good, though, so I shall just enjoy feeling FAT.

YA READY FOR MY TURKEY YAM FARTS?

My now retired chef Dad made veggie lasagne (and, of course, turkey for the non veg) stuffing, creamed corn, creamed peas, mashed sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce, cauliflower with cheese, pommes anna, pumpkin pie, and blueberry pie. I don't think I have to eat for a week.

one turkey leg, mashed potatoes, salad, cranberry sauce, squash, corn, three rolls, two slices of apple pie, and three scoops of ice cream. And four glasses of wine.

I finished eating by 3:00 in the afternoon. Now here it is six hours later and I don't feel stuffed to the gills anymore, which is nice. And I'll go to bed hungry and therefore lose some lb's overnight. Good times.

my supper was

Dominos
pumpkin pie/cheesecake thing
beer

turkey (white & dark)
stuffing
gravy
brussels sprouts
green beans w shallots & bacon
mashed potatoes w chorizo
sweet potatoes with baked apples casserole

there were pies but i did not eat them.

bourbon.

cranberry chutney, a roll.

I made this for my extended family.

It went over very well.

We did a potluck thing, including most of the usual suspects, although no yams. : (

turkey
gravy
stuffing
cranberry sauce
mashed potatoes
caramelized pumpkin trifle
green beans
almond cookies

All y'all who say "stuffing," is this something that is baked in the bird, or do you really mean "dressing"?

(ps, I am not as dogmatic about this as I am about barbecue, just wondering)

some crab dip to kick things off then:

motherfuckin' turkey
gravy
mashed potatoes
sausage stuffing (or "dressing", whatever dude)
saurkraut
sweet potato pie
green beens
steamed carrots
cranberry sauce

pretty amazingly delicious. my moms is skilled in the art of cooking.

Roasted nuts with rosemary and honey
Turkey
Gravy
Dressing (yes, WmC)
Cranberry sauce
Broccoli casserole w/Velveeta made by me, twice, because the first time I got 1. the broccoli overcooked and 2. the sauce all runny
Green bean and mushroom casserole
Mashed potatoes
Sweet potatoes
Pumpkin pie and whipped cream

All y'all who say "stuffing," is this something that is baked in the bird, or do you really mean "dressing"?

Stuffing is the bread based goodness traditionally baked in the bird but it doesn't have to be. Would you really call that dressing?

DO NOT THROW TOMATOES AT ME, but I do not like holiday meals. I prefer indian food any day of the week. We went to the stanley hotel and had dinner earlier, I had pecan pie and salad and brie. oh and some steamed asparagus.

imo the best cranberry sauce is the stuff that comes straight out tha can.

I forgot to buy
a pecan pie and now I
wish I'd remembered.

I always thought stuffing was, by definition, stuffed into the bird to bake, but I guess not since the abomination that is Stove Top Stuffing is not necessarily meant for the inside of the bird. What I call dressing is cornbread dressing, but I'm sure there is also non-cornbread dressing. PS, prepackaged stuffing mixes can eat a bag of pope's noses.

btw,

Baked chicken (nobody in our family likes turkey that much)
Dressing with giblet gravy
sweet potato casserole
mashed potatoes
blackeyed peas
creamed corn (the good stuff from my dad's garden)
cabbage casserole (some new thing my mother decided to make this year instead of the awesome broccoli casserole ;_;)
deviled eggs (my contribution)
cranberry sauce, brown & serve rolls, tea

huge 23 pound farm turkey, never frozen
spicy cranberry chutney
straight cran sauce
yams
mashed pots
collard greens
gravy
stuffing
pearl onions reduced in balsamic vinegar
pumpkin pie with our garden pumpkins
spiced pears with vanilla ice cream
wine
homebrew

damn

Went to a restaurant - had pasta and pumpkin pie. Lol that sounds depressing.
