Scottpat Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 My entire day (today) is devoted to cooking and I'm sure a few trips to the grocery store! We are spending Thanksgiving at a cabin (more like a house), up in the Smoky Mountains about 10 miles east of Gatlinburg, TN. So we take a cooked bird a small ham, cornbread dressing (stuffing for you Yankees), vegies and a couple of pies with us. I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving. Be safe if you are traveling and if you partake in adult beverages, do not drive. Happy Thanksgiving to all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 Scott, Who is going to eat that stuff? Sounds like a nice family time. We will cook a turkey on Thurs and Corned Beef(s) on Friday. I join you wishing everyone a joyous Thanksgiving Day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Manor Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 One of the great things about living in a border city: two Thanksgivings! We celebrated our Canadian Thanksgiving a couple weeks ago. Now for American Thanksgiving, I just hop across the border to my sister's place. Ain't life grand?!? -Brad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Katen Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 My wife doesn't like turkey so every year we have to come up with something else that's appropriately festive. This year she suggested that we celebrate our daughter's first year at the University of Oregon by making duck. I observed that it's a good thing she didn't go the University of Washington . . . - Jim Katen, Oregon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be safe if you are traveling and if you partake in adult beverages, do not drive. Happy Thanksgiving to all! There is an old addage I live by. If you get too drunk to walk, drive. Two twelve pound birds stuffed with a chestnut, onion, celery and cranberry stuffing. Loaves of cranberry bread. Corn muffins with budder. Potatoes of various kinds in various ways. Butternut squash mashed with budder. Sparagus roasted with garlic and spices. Cauliflower, steamed, then sauteed with nutmeg, butter and salt and pepper. Pies of various fruits. Home made wines both red and white. Family, love, grandkids, and the gratitude that we have for all that the home inspection profession has given us over the last 26 years.
