just ignore and let this one die

We should buy our own private sim and turn the ocean into gravy and have little mashed potato islands.

Would the sharks like that?

you are making me very very hungry!

My only "absolute must have" dishes are the turkey with 'made from scratch' mashed potatoes and gravy

LM please.

Perhaps it will help the taste of the meat they're chomping on.

I'll take the first three, but you can keep the beets (which I do like sometimes) and the roasted yams (which I never like).

Turkey prep is simply rubbing it with olive oil. Then my husband will put it in the smoker, with lots of mesquite chips, somewhere between 10:00 pm and midnight Wed night. He'll stay up all night, dozing off and on, so that he can check the temp and add mesquite chips every couple of hours. Turkey will come off of the smokers around 3:00-4:00 pm Thr.

I've often wondered about deep fried, but I don't really eat fried foods anymore.

I forgot to mention that in addition to the Singles skate animation they have a Couples set that I have not tried yet.

I've never tried smoking, although I've bought custom smoked turkeys before at this Eastern European meat place that was quite good. I think the one advantage of doing a smoked or deep fried bird is that it frees up your oven space which there never seems to be enough space.

You were always one of my favorite sky dancers

that sounds like the way i will spend my winter trying to keep warm.. ugh.. . but tending a wood stove, not a smoker. LOL

Foooey, it's Monday now.

Those skates are awesome.

Actually, I got a very warm welcome once I figured out the Secret Rules to get in.

And there are a lot of people over there who don't seem to come around here no more... nice to see some familiar names.

Ahhh..Thanksgiving! I traditionally share the holiday with friends, although this year my mom will be going with me...

One of the participants is the world's best cook, seriously! He's doing the turkey and stuffing and gravy this year, YUM! Other must haves are my cranberry compote, sweet and white potatoes, and pumpkin pie. This year I'll be trying a honey-glazed roasted yam with onion and apple recipe. Then we'll also have fruit salad, mashed potatoes, greens, green salad, rolls... and who knows what else. For sure it will be a fun day with friends, with too much food, a little too much wine, and never too much warmth and conviviality. I'm truly blessed with my friends...

I shall be celebrating Thanksgiving by having one day off from work, generously paid for by my employer. Whereupon I shall return to work on Friday. On my day off I shall spend my time alone contemplating which McDonald's or like might be open so I might partake of food. I will then, likely, end up not eating food and/or attempting to beg some food from a local asian establishment, Chinese or Thai.

My only "must have" for thanskgiving dinner is the nap on the couch a few minutes after dinner.

I was just working on the shopping list... everything from scratch of course.

Dinner:
Turkey
Stuffing
Mashed Potatoes
Yams
Peas
Gravy
Rolls
Cranberry Sauce

Dessert:
Pumpkin Pie
Cranberry Pudding (steamed pudding) with Buttercream Sauce

Wish I could send Lexxi a meal...

It's just another work day for us Canadians.

Darn it, I was trying to get away with doing a lower-cal dinner on Thursday but you people are simply forcing me to add to my List!

Cranberry-Orange Glazed Turkey
Mushroom-Pecan Stuffing
Sage Gravy
Mashed Potatoes
Green Beans
Sweet Potatoes with Maple Syrup
Pecan Pie


We're going to cram 7 people into our little apartment - should be crowded, but very much fun.

Thank you! *smiles* I sooo loved doing it. Was always easy, since I constantly fly through and around things, but work got so busy I did not have enough time for the practices and fitting in with the other dancers.

I still try to see them each year they have a show though. The lights, the sounds, the wonderful movement through it all, simply fantastic!

my 'must have' will not be forthcoming this particular Thanksgiving.

sounds fun to me! i'll be crammed into a home full of dear friends, good food and a football game of rival teams. surely there will be a nap squeezed into the day. i mean, i'm famous for it at their house! LOL

I have been spending most Thanksgivings in Las Vegas the past 6 years or so, but since I wll be traveling for half of December through New Year's, Vegas will have to get along without me this year. If I were to cook, it would be turkey, sausage and apple stuffing stuffing, garlic mashed potatoes, green beans with garlic and black olives sauteed in olive oil, and apple pie.However, I've decided on a solitary Thanksgiving this year and will be dining out at a local eatery.
