Dressing is made, smoker is stoked, frier is set up, Baileys is made, wine and beer in the cooler, reds arranged, table set.
Wood chips soaking, dropping the big bird in the smoker bout midnight.
Lots of work, but worth every minute

Oh, the Clos DuBois Beaulolais Nouveau sux this year, but the Rochecorbier is Quite Tasty.

Happy Thanksgiving, Mockers.

I'm thankful for all of you.

Thanks, I will try that this weekend.

Happy Thanksgiving, Mockers.

I'm thankful for all of you.

Happy Thanksgiving, Duchess. And, thank you so much for Mock.

Thank you, too, for keeping it real here without being a totally uppity hard-headed smart-ass bitch in the process (except on special occasions and whenever the hell the mood strikes you).

I'm grateful for you and everyone who plays and posts in this virtual adult playground (even Kid, MS and usually CN).

[Duchess]

It's been my extreme pleasure...sincerely.

[Clang McFly]

Happy Thanksgiving, Mockers.

I'm thankful for all of you.

Awww...hugs for all, even cynical the grouch.

[Cynical Ninja]

Awww...hugs for all, even cynical the grouch.

When a cat plays with a dead mouse it isn't grouchy its just playing, I'm the ginger tom and your are my dead mouse clang.

You don't have a can opener?

Actually, Trader Joes sells a kinda home made looking cranberry sauce. Too late for you now though. Happy Thanksgiving to you and all you other pilgrims too.

I'm not dead just lead a laid back carefree simplistic existence. Your jealousy is so transparent. I'm fairly sure it's also what irks you about Donovan and Esad.

Couldn't have said it better.

Oh, so that's what you call it. And to think all this time I just thought you were a lazy bum that mooched off your elderly parents.

[Carsman]

Well dinner is over, it was great, but amen! Lookin towards the sunshine!

[SIXFOOTERsez]

Wow, what a feed.
Only had 15 show, fed the hell out of them and sent them all home with a cars package.
Leftovers in the fridge, both dishwashers running, inside kitchen is all clean. Outside one will take some work tomorrow to put everything away and the like. Was nice having everyone here.
Most of tomorrow will be spent learning my SUP, see if I can't drown myself

[QueenBee]

Nothing went horribly wrong here, either. Just had two guests, but it was fun. Had my husband take the bird out of the oven, or I would have dropped him. Next year we get a bigger bird, I think. Just for the leftovers. I have a smaller turkey in the freezer for Christmas, as it will just be the two of us.
I do kind of miss the big family gatherings, but the small ones are OK too.

[QueenBee]

You know, I have to say. I know I do not share much here. And I am the boring bitch, too boot. But I like it here. The people are interesting, the conversations far from boring, usually. Granted, I may never get mentioned in a "Queen Bee is such a bitch" thread, but that is fine with me. Because the cool thing is, when you are all dead and gone, I am going to write the absolute coolest book about you all.

[sally]

Usually when I cook a big meal I never sit down and eat a big plate with everyone else, I just take a little bite here and there to make sure everything tastes good. Well today I made myself a plate and if my family has anything to be thankful for it's me. I'm freaking amazing.

Everyone else should be thankful for me too. You're welcome.

[nrkerr]

For once, I didn't fall asleep with my plate of food on my lap. It almost never fails, I spend all day cooking...then when it's over, I just want to sleep.
