My parents decided to accept an invite they cannot safely drive to at the house of a distant aunt. I offered to drive, and they rejected the offer, miffed. Then, my sister and her kid and my wife and I told my parents that we would bring thanksgiving to them, and do all the cooking, cleaning, etc. Parents said sure, so we all uninvited myself from the distant aunt. Then, my sneaky parents reinvited themselves to the distant aunt, to which they will be driving.... but my sister and her kid and my wife I are now stuck w/o plans. Sister and I live fairly far apart, so we decided not to meet up. My wife and I are going out for seafood, because our oven is broken and we can’t cook at home. Happy fucking 2017.

Saturday: phoned Whole Foods to ask if their pre-order turkeys were frozen. was told they'd have a light layer of ice but not be frozen through. pre-ordered turkey.

Tuesday: picked up turkey.

Five minutes ago: tried to pull giblets out of turkey in order to brine it. Turkey is frozen solid in the middle. 16 ppl are meant to be eating this bird in 13 hours.

wait, only 15, there's a vegetarian attending. no worries then.

You need a bucket of really warm water and to wrap your turkey back up to be as watertight as possible. Then leave the wrapped bird in the bucket for a few hours, where it will thaw more quickly. Then remove the giblets and proceed to brine as normal.

Does Disney do anything special for Thanksgiving? Do all the restaurants have Thanksgiving menus?

Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 23 November 2017 15:27 (six years ago) link

Yes, the parks are open later and I suspect they'll have themed parades. We're at a cabin in Ft. Wilderness -- no park today.

Business are copying BF more and more in Europe, sadly.

The turkey has just gone into my oven. The neck and giblets are simmering to make stock for the gravy. My guests are due at 5pm. I haven't had this much "free" time for several weeks, and am not sure what to do with myself while dinner cooks.

Thanksgiving happening in London, albeit with a chicken instead of a turkey. Guest arrival IMMINENT.

Yesterday, I explained the ideas behind Thanksgiving to several of my friends here in Vietnam, because they were unfamiliar. But they all knew what Black Friday was already

Vinnie, Friday, 24 November 2017 01:11 (six years ago) link

we had fun. 20 people at our house. friends and family. it was nice. a baby. a dog. a 23 pound turkey. sambuca in my coffee.

scott seward, Friday, 24 November 2017 01:29 (six years ago) link

Good meal all around and the turkey already fully broken down and turned into stock and soup and everything cleaned up and we’re chilling. That works!

Ned Raggett, Friday, 24 November 2017 02:54 (six years ago) link

The guests have gone, the leftovers are chilling in the fridge, and I'm hoping my overstuffed feeling will soon pass.

Microwaved myself a Marie Callender’s turkey pot pie for lunch, no complaints whatsoever.

is right unfortunately (silby), Thursday, 26 November 2020 21:51 (three years ago) link

My wife and I ordered a mushroom pot pie from a fancy restaurant for our main dish and are supplementing with a bunch of homemade sides and dessert. All vegetarian except for some bacon in the brussels sprouts.

One member of our household is having turkey, though.
