Thanksgiving. Good, bad or ugly. Mine have all actually been pretty good...except the one's where I had to work on Friday after....and then there was that horrible year when I worked in RETAIL as a second job.
:shock:

does anyone know why i am laughing????
is it because I've seen this story before about the turkey and cornish hen - did you steal it from somewhere? or do I remember it from last year?

The most memorable TGDay was right after my Mimi passed away. My family had been coming to Atlanta for the past 2 years and having amazing feasts...my sis would cook all the traditional food and my aunt would cook radical food...we had so much food every year!!! Most times we had at least 20 people for dinner.
This one year, after Mimi passed, we had a HUGE party for her and we spread her ashes in Decatur Cemetery. So many people came and we really had an amazing "good bye" to our much loved Mimi. We must have had 80 people come and give her a send off...just as she wanted it, planned it, and she was there every step of the way....she was a truly GRAYT lady!
yes, this was a memorable Thanksgiving for sure. My most memorable thanksgiving was my first thanksgiving at Mimi's house in Dawson, GA. It was the first time I had met kurt's family. It was a huge party for days, with wonderful food, and just so much funn. That was the beginning of many holidays filled with just as much liquor as food. Which definitely means there are many stories to tell and not enough room to tell them here.

I also remember Brad's first Thanksgiving was in Dawson!
Mimi always claimed that she couldn't cook...what a lie! She always had wonderful food, and gave amazing parties! Toots...next time at your house...we need to do some reminiscing! :clap_1:

This was memorable alright, but not in a good way!I am glad you are out of that mess!!!I had just broken up, with a control freak. My mother was visiting and we decided to go out for our T'giving meal. I got out on the highway and found him, in my rear view mirror!
Thought I lost him and we went in to a Rest/ Bar(only thing open). After awhile, a nice man came up to speak with us. I Looked up and saw "crazy man" staring at me, from across the room! :shock: He then came up(nice man still standing there) and made a scene, slamming his fist on the table while stating, "she'll break your heart". Thought I'd die, of embarrassment! Authorities had to make him leave and the next hour, was fairly enjoyable. Get home, relax and visit with mom, then get ready for bed. Proceed to crawl in bed and ALMOST FREAK! Idiot apparently broke in my back door(never did lock well) and put a gift in my bed! Initially, it appeared to be some kinda bloody matter.
Turned out, the crazy man put a ton of CRANBERRY SAUCE in my bed and covered it up with my comforter!
I could go on, but I think ya get the picture! For someone so successful,
he was a real psycho!
He got into bigtime trouble, after someone informed his bigtime employer, his bigtime employee practices! Hmm...can't imagine who did that!;-)

My most memorable one was when I was feeding a bunch of homeless people.

how sad is it that i don't have an especially memorable thanksgiving story ? i just remember always going to my grandma hamms for the best southern food ever - man could that woman cook ! unfortunately she passed away about 3 days before thanksgiving 10 yrs or so ago and i didn't have the sense to write any recipes down, and she never used recipes so there is no written record on how she made anything
What are some of the dishes she use to cook?
