Don’t forget the neck cavity stuffing. It’s not worth it on a chicken, but when Dad made the turkey that chunk under the brown parchment-like skin was pretty tasty. Crunchy crouton top with a chewy center, yum.
(snicker) NO ONE is on holiday when it’s holiday.
Now get up off yer ass and help Sam cook.
Unless you want her to burn down the house.
(BTW, where are the fire extinguishers -yes, plural – somewhere near, but not in, the danger zone)
Zed is usually fairly prudent. I wonder that he’s willing to entertain the notion of allowing Sam to launch another intercontinental ballistic frozen turkey into orbit.
Huh, fresh Impeachment Party news, few hours old. Remember how Republicans were begging last week for the release of the secret transcript of an OMB official’s testimony in Schiff’s basement play room, saying the real reason for the Ukraine aid hold would blow the Dems’ show trial apart?
May your stuffing be tasty,
May your turkey be plump,
May your potatoes and gravy
have nary a lump,
May your yams be delicious
and your pies take the prize,
and may your Thanksgiving dinner
stay off your thighs!
Saw a T-shirt once that had the picture of a scowling Granny Clampett looking lady with the caption, “This is the last time I spend all day shoving bread crumbs up a dead turkey’s behind!”
Cooking the cornbread dressing today, along with the pumpkin mousse (we don’t like pumpkin pie). Chunking the vegetables for roasting tomorrow. Spousal Unit will be frying the chicken and turkey legs in the Big Easy infrared fryer tomorrow, while Sister makes the Waldorf salad and I make the gravy.
No need to go all out when there’s only six of us.
But that would well and truly be a man-job so better for her. And I’d actually rather dress a big ol’ wild Tom than a deer, it’s been a while but not that bad and keeps the connection with Ma Nature going. 🙂
JT~ When I was 13, some of the Uncles and cousins came back from hunting, tossed the turkeys, ducks, geese and pheasants on the kitchen table while we were making pies. I was picked to clean the birds. Arrggh. My Great-Aunt of 90 showed me how.
That definitely does Not look like any pilgrim stuffing that turkey.
Even if the local Indians did have to bring it.
Many are thinking about the ‘Death To America’ whiners that, again, are being instructed to Whine at us about anything that has a wild hair up their butt.
So considering all they fuss about, they are more like Puritans.
They are more butt hurt though. So Neo-Puritans.

OMB Official: Ukraine Aid Held Up Because Other Countries Weren’t Giving
Maybe SanFranNan will get her wish to have all this impeachment stuff done by Christmas. 😉
10…9…8…7…6…5…4…3..2…1… Liftoff !!
T Day plans got side lined. Too short a period to prep the fryer. Gonna cheat and do T Breasts in my countertop deep fryer seasoned coon-ass style.
The first time I heard the expression coon-ass, I wondered… Luckily, the guy who used it saw my puzzled expression and explained. lol
Coon ass cajuns are proud of being called that.
LOVE the Costume!!

@Alex J – Excellent; I’m stealin’ some o’ that.

Thanks. I shot water out of my nose.

I’d like a thigh please.
Sam…Be Thankful you did NOT have to pluck and clean out a freshly killed bird.
That is truly gross.
But that would well and truly be a man-job so better for her. And I’d actually rather dress a big ol’ wild Tom than a deer, it’s been a while but not that bad and keeps the connection with Ma Nature going. 🙂

Yeah, that’ll make you wanna pluck & gut ol’ Ma Nature herself.
Answer to that of course is to be on the huntin’ not cookin’ crew.
Looking forward to the launch!
Unless Sam figured out the complete defrost concept.

Just a thought… maybe pass these out to those on the ‘left’ side of the table tomorrow: https://futurism.com/the-byte/russian-farmers-vr-cows
Just as we are about to give thanks tomorrow for our military, present and passed on, Senator Warren decides to honor her people. Bless her heart.
