Is this the largest number of people we have ever had NOT online cause they are eating turkey? Sound off if you are missing.

OK, I have to do something until that bird gets done cooking....

I give up.
I'm just sorta not here checking the news around.

Sorta doing this and/or that while things get moving.

My guests aren't until later today.

Yowsa, you guys west of me got some ketchin up to do. My turkey is done in another 30 minutes.
Mots, is it true that after dinner all you have to do is wheel the dinner table outside and everything will be refrigerated just fine?:D

Turkey's taking too long so I thought I'd pop in here a minute while I'm waiting.

There's only five of us for dinner---our usual is 12 to 16.

Stuck home

DW cooked a huge dinner to bring to her son's house today. Her other son drove in from out of town to be there.

This morning she let the dogs out without putting them on their chains...and they ran away :-(

I've been driving the neighborhood looking for them and staying home by myself on dog watch. Oh well. She did leave turkey and dressing :-)

Best regards
Doc

I checked to see if I was missing, asked the cat, she just looked at me. Going to have a cup of tea or something hot, depends on what surfaces first when I look. I will let you know if I find myself.

we had a early dinner late lunch turkey...the kids and I just got home. Both my older brothers smoke, kept chain smoking & drinking, that I just couldn't take it anymore so came home! My sis in law was like NOOOOOOOOOOO DONT LEAVE ME!!!! Couldn't take it anymore, I stink now and need a shower. I'm an ex smoker so I think the smell bothers me more!! Not that I want to smoke but just more sensative to it all....(been quit for almost 5-6 yrs I lost count!!)

My husband and our fur-kids are crashed on the couch, slumbering happily in a turkey induced stupor ;)

My honey makes the verra best stuffing on the planet, so he does the turkey nd stuffing, I make the gravy and side dishes; which this year were baked sweet potatoes, cole slaw and cranberry sauce.

Simple and easy.

The turkey carcass is simmering on the stove, the turkey has been packed into vacuum bags for the freezer and the kitchen is cleaned up. Laundry is going and I've uncovered all the lanai plants fro tucking them in last night due to a frost warning. Moved the tomato plants back outside.

Soon I think I'll fix a mug of tea, draw a bubble bath, grab a book and put some George Winston or Miles Davis on the cd and just kick back and relax .......

Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!

I'm thankful for so much...... My husband that after all these years loves me still (despite my quirkiness ;) )........ Thathe has good doctors and his doing well ....... For our fur-kids who make us laugh and warm our hearts........ And that for the moment, despite the storm on the horizen, life is sweet........... Blessings Be to all!

Unfortunately Yes.......... it's 15 degrees out........ at 3pm in the 'heat of the day'....
Actually my back porch acts as an extended cooler for all things needing to be chilled... just put it in the snowbank.....
Can't leave pop out there too long, tho... it will freeze solid.
Hope Everyone enjoyed their meal....

Doc, ya jinxed me!

Some joker decided to go hunting behing the house this afternoon, a little too close. My dog gets spooked by gunfire and ran off. I looked for her tonight, but, she had a big headstart on me.

Hopefully, she'll come home like she did last time.

It never dawned on me for someone to hunt this close to the house on Thanksgiving Day. In IN (my home state) they used to stop and let the people living nearby/next to where they would be shooting to give us a heads up.

Hope all our pets are ok.

I am not here, I did not over-eat today and I do not feel like a stuffed turkey. OK, I am here, I DID over-eat and I DO feel like a stuffed turkey. I confessed.

I honestly did not over-eat today. However...I am getting ready to remedy that. Everyone's gone, and I can go back for seconds, or thirds, or...:lol:
