We are taking several dishes and will eat with our friends, at 4:00 p.m. today. Kinda late for us, but when someone else offers to struggle a cold, slimy bird into an oven, I'll take what is offered. I will try to resist asking that she slap together a turkey sandwich for me on the side! The leftovers are my favorite part of Thanksgiving. I have made the incomparable Southern cornbread stuffing, an old favorite cranberry sauce made with Grand Marnier, and a sweet per-tay-ter pie. The Yankee husband made fun of it on our first Thanksgiving together, so I made a sweet potato and a pumpkin. Ever since, nothing but sweet potato will do for him. Now for a story...

When my dad was seven, the family (of 14, mind you) had picked all the cotton and Dad had the luxury of riding to town with his father to take the cotton to the gin. Dad had been working since very early in the morning, with no breakfast, and was feeling a little woozy for it. Sat up in the wagon, listing hard to port as they drove along the clay roads on the way to Clayton, AL. His dad took notice and when they reached town, he gave Dad a nickel, told him to go into the drugstore and get himself a Co-Cola and a piece of pie. A first for my Dad. Dad walked into that drugstore and the lady said, "What'll it be, son?" He replied, "I want a Co-cola and a piece of pie, please ma'am." The waitress replied, "What kinda pie do you want?" Dad looked at her in amazement and said, "Sweet per-tay-ter...what do you think pie is made of?" Have a good one, SoWallers!

Funny, but I was thinking about cranberries today as well. ;-)

We're eating around 4 pm or after which is a good thing seeing that I'm still in my bathrobe waiting for the waffles to bake.

We're going to eat around 4pm and then meet our Turkey Trot organizers at B&A's at 7pm.

Cocktails at 5. Dinner at 6 or 6:30. It's beautiful outside and the kids wanted to go to the beach this afternoon!

We have gobbled...it wasn't perfect, but it was FUNN! Cleaned up a bit, then retired to the deck and relaxed in the warm afternoon sun. The leaves are falling and it was just nice. :clap_1: Now, Mr. K is slicing up the bird and I am waiting to get in there to finish washing all the dishes. Football is on the TV and another Turkey Day comes to an end.

i will be having my fabulous feast of a ham and cheese sandwich at oh, probably 2 a.m.

Nothin' left but a mess!

I've cooked for two solid days. We ate at about 5 PM. Dinner was awesome. The only downside was the mess to clean up. We just finished hand-washing the sterling, the Tiffany's Holiday china, and the Baccarat crystal, along with whatever wouldn't fit into the dishwasher.

A great day! Good food and great being with Mr. BR, BJ, Mom, and my brother.

Now I'm chillin' with a GT plastic cup full of white wine. Ah!!!!!

Happy Thanksgiving, y'all!

The margaritas were fabulous, for anyone who was interested. :clap_1: Definitely a keeper.

Nothin' left but a mess!

That sounds like something we would do I'll just go on and tell you, I had nearly twenty people and I did NOT want to wash cookware and dishes. So we ate on our best Hefty rectangular styrofoam trays with 20 oz. BigCool styrofoam cups upon which we wrote our names with a black sharpie marker. I used Vanity Fair prefolded dinner napkins which came in a handy dispenser. Did I mention the crystal clear plastic flatware out of the bag. Niiiiccceeeeeeee :shock: :funn:

We had a five hour dinner tonight! We sat down at the table and stayed there. It was delicious and funn. I wub turkey day.
