Lol, you beat my forebearers by a 150 years, LFK.

My fathers family came over from Scotland through Ireland, after the rising of '45. The bloody English were killing pipers just for having pipes!

My mothers family was Irish, driven out by the potato famine, and Germans because they wanted their own land in the late 1800's.

think I can kick in on this.  I'm a direct descendant of Sir Thomas Dale

Came over in 1611 to run the Jamestown Colony.  Ruthless bastard according to family tradition.

While you're waiting in vain for that apology, why don't you make yourself useful by getting on your knees and opening your mouth

To all the American board members.....have a day filled to the max with good food and the fellowship of people you love.

To all the board members who are not American....have a day filled to the max with good food and fellowship of people you love.

We are all the same, just different locations is all.

Love y'all...time for me to get to cooking!   :emot_kiss:

Now it really is Thanksgiving Day.

Among the many things I am thankful for today, I include KB. I am thankful for the hard work of the Administrator, Moderators, and behind the scenes tech people who keep the board running; I am thankful for the many things I've learned here; and I am especially thankful for the many cool and wonderful people that I've met here.

So, whether you're American or not, whether you celebrate it or not: Have A Happy Thanksgiving!

Love,

Barbara

Agreed!.....Except that your beer sucks, you can't properly pronounce the word "about", and don't get me started on that ridiculous streak of light your TV networks had to follow the trajectory of a puck!  ;D


Happy Thanksgiving to all! Cheers!

Why am I here on Thanksgiving.  Because I can spend only so much time with family before I either scream, or start loading firearms. 

Thanksgiving proves Einsteins theory of relativity which states "the more time you spend with relative, the slower time passes"

It was a holiday like most. We got out of our house late, we got to families house where everyone broke into their little groups and ignored the others. People cried, some laughed.


I hate turkey and the ham tasted like smoke. Eating to much was not an issue. Went home hungry and ate left over soup from the night before.

For me and even more so the last 5 years or so, the holidays just seem to bring out the worst in everyone we end up seeing. There is a nice build up to the actual day but the holiday itself is just a let down each and every time. My boys and I tend to go off on our own and try and make the best of it till time to go home.

Cowboys won, and so did the Longhorns.  Lots to be thankful for in Texas...  I went to a friend's house, who promised a "gourmet" spread.  Apparently he had not heard that a dry store bought smoked bird and potato flakes do not a gourmet meal make.  Hopefully turkeys will be on sale tomorrow.  I plan to cook my own.  Turn Black Friday into tryptophan feast day.  ;)
I brined my first turkey. No dry meat! Wonderful taste! Do it!

Feeling sleepy after a big turkey dinner was thought to be the result of tryptophan but a new study has found feeling tired is due more to a carb overload than it is to tryptophan.

I saw a piece on the news last night that said while turkey does contain tryptophan, and tryptophan does have a soporific effect, the protein in turkey neutralizes the tryptophan.

The reason people feel sleepy after Thanksgiving dinner is that they just ate a big-ass meal, accompanied by several alcoholic drinks.

And when you eat a large meal, your digestive system needs extra blood to process all that food.  Oddly, the blood flow to the brain is reduced to supply this blood, so you feel sleepy.

Odd shit you learn in advanced anatomy.

Just several drinks?  That is called a taste.  8)

We had two Thanksgiving Feasts this year.  The first one at friends, and then a second one when the kids said they missed my food and wanted me to cook a "real" Thanksgiving meal.  Here was the menu I did:

Waldorf Salad
Turkey
Cajun Oyster Stuffing
Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Raisins
Mashed Potatoes
Gravy
Popovers (a bread made in hot "popover" pan)
Double Chocolate Mousse Torte with Raspberries.




That menu sounds amazing, especially the Cajun Oyster Stuffing!
