What's everyone cooking for turkey day?
November 18, 2016 at 6:31 pm
We were torn between cooking and dinner at the casino. Cooking won out.
It's not going to be turkey. I never get it right.
Standing rib roast with garlic infused.
Scalloped corn casserole.
Stuffing with oysters.
Smashed taters and gravy.
Grands biscuits.
Apple pie with Cool Whip.
This has been done before. I open to new suggestions.

I do not celebrate a holiday that celebrates the genocide of Native Americans.

We don't celebrate it over here, but I hope everyone has a lovely day when it comes.

The usual traditional stuff. Corn pudding, mashed potatoes, broccoli with cheese sauce. Maybe I'll try my hand at cornbread stuffing.

“Love is the only bow on Life’s dark cloud. It is the morning and the evening star. It shines upon the babe, and sheds its radiance on the quiet tomb. It is the mother of art, inspirer of poet, patriot and philosopher.
It is the air and light of every heart – builder of every home, kindler of every fire on every hearth. It was the first to dream of immortality. It fills the world with melody – for music is the voice of love.
Love is the magician, the enchanter, that changes worthless things to Joy, and makes royal kings and queens of common clay. It is the perfume of that wondrous flower, the heart, and without that sacred passion, that divine swoon, we are less than beasts; but with it, earth is heaven, and we are gods.” - Robert. G. Ingersoll

Thanksgiving always scares me a bit. Our family friends do a good job of it, and don't pressure us to eat. But still, it's like society is pressuring us, and we feel obligated to eat too much, and too heavy.
That having been said, if I had to prepare Thanksgiving dinner, I like the idea of some traditional things and some not. So, maybe:
Turkey/cornish game hen
ground turkey chili with pinto beans (grated cheese, sour cream, hot sauce, oyster crackers)
haricots verts
spinach
funeral potatoes
sweet potatoes
cheap white rolls
cranberry sauce
dressing made with wheat bread, some of it toasted to well done
apple pie
pumpkin pie
shoo fly pie and
biscuit pudding
(vanilla frozen yogurt, cool whip)
hot chocolate
