bologna sandwiches for Thanksgiving.

I'd like that, fried bologna sandwich on soft white bread. Mmmmmmmmmm. I'm
having turkey roast, dressing, cranberry conserve, mashed potatoes, peas and
corn, gravy and I haven't decided what dessert yet. What's yours?

I'm taking a ham to my sister-in-law's house along with a cherry dump
cake (Pioneer Woman recipe). My nephew is doing two turkey breasts
on his gas rotisserie grill; one is regular seasoning and the other
will be Cajun. There will be many, many side dishes as well as lots
of other desserts.

Â* Pulled ours on Sunday evening . Should be ready by Thursday morning .
Baked some French bread today for stuffing . We'll be pre-prepping
everything we can - and baking the pies - tomorrow , as she has to work
on The Day . I'll be putting it all together so we can eat as soon as
she gets off . Our youngest will be coming up from Memphis and must
leave fairly early to make it to work on Friday . If I can catch him ,
I'll invite our newest neighbor over for dinner . He's up renovating his
just-purchased house .

I like balogna sandwiches too.

If yoose ever forgets to take yoose turkey outa dat freezer,
yoose can also put it in a sink and fill with cold water. It
will be thawed for yoose in about 24 hours, maybe little
longer for really big turky.

That sounds good. I did one of her recipes that was a pumpkin dump cake a
couple of years ago, everyone loved it, so I 'm sure the cherry one will be
yummy. It sounds like a good time with good food.

Oh yes, there will be lots of talk and laughter. My grilling nephew just
loves cherry pie and this dump cake is always a hit with him. I'm also
taking along a large pail of vanilla ice cream to tone down the super
sweet dump cake. I use the Comstock (or store brand) cherry pie filling
for this dessert.

Roast turkey, dressing, gravy, tossed salad.

I'm trying to decide whether to buy a small pumpkin pie when I go
to the bakery today.

I've got a 12lb turkey defrosting, will be prepped and traditionally
seasoned inside and out with poultry seasoning and have citrus slices
inserted under the skin, then roasted on a V rack.
There'll be roasted sweet potatoes and roasted butternut squash, fresh
broccoli crowns (steamed), kasha varnishkas, and a pumpkin pie. All
very standard/traditional fare. I'll prepare the kasha varnishkas
today as a head start, then just pop it into the oven.
I hope everyone has a great dinner and a Happy Thanksgiving.

I'm heating up half a roasted duck. I'll make cornbread dressing, gravy
(made with chicken stock added to a roux and finished off with more
butter), steamed broccoli. A scoop of vanilla ice cream will be dessert.

Our 17-pounder was moved to the refrigerator on Thursday, spatchcocked
and dry-rubbed with salt and baking powder on Monday, bone stock made
yesterday. Skin is drying beautifully...

It will be different stuff this year.
My grandson is flying in from Portland (new freshman there) and will
be staying with my ex. My ex's wife's son just moved his family here
from SF. We will all be going to my ex's wife's son's new home for
Thanksgiving dinner. My ex is doing the turkey on their Weber, his
wife is doing dessert. The son's wife is doing appetizers, mashed
potatoes and assorted go along's, son is planning an extensive bar,
The son's two little kids are darn cute and pretty well behaved. My
ex's father-in-law is a sweetie and my before dinner sipping partner
:-) I'm bring fresh baked bread and rolls and a salad. The original
plan was to go to my ex's house but the son/wife understandably want
to hold a family meal and show off a wonderful house up in the hills.
We are going to break high temperatures here for Thanksgiving Day that
haven't been breached since the 1880s.
All in all, I am off the hook for any extensive cooking. Meanwhile I
am sure the son's wife has had the cleaning ladies in and has been
worrying over the dishes she has to prepare. I remember those days.
Thankfully they are behind me. :-))

I can't keep up. So your sweetie is the grandfather of your ex's
stepson, or the step-grandfather of your grandson....

You obviously haven't had the benefit of watching any U.S. soap
operas;-} My grandson is the son of my daughter (mine and my ex's).
We've always had holidays and birthdays together so that our daughter
would always have mother and father and more. It has worked and
friends, neighbors and families have adjusted to the oddity. Everyone
is welcome everywhere.

Good for you, more families should do that and then the kids wouldn't have
to be torn and can have the benefit of many people who love them.

It was a lemon tart with a saltine crust, and I did decide to make that
again since it is easy and really good. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.

I've got two sweet potatoes to cook. Think I'll make a tiny
casserole with brown sugar and peaches. (no marshmallows though).
SP and peaches are a good combo.

I'll save a few of the peaches to put in a bowl with vanilla ice
cream.

(It's a 15oz can of sliced peaches, not fresh ones)

Still haven't decided on the dinner though. Will probably keep it
simple...the sweet potato thing and a couple of baked potatoes
topped with sour cream. Don't know. I opted out for a turkey this
time.

Other option is to thaw a 12oz Kansas City strip overnight and
eat that with home fries and corn.

I still have several hours to decide.

I *AM* going to make a batch of bread pudding in the morning
though. Been putting it off for weeks.

Happy Holiday to all here!

Good for you, more families should do that and then the kids wouldn't have
to be torn and can have the benefit of many people who love them.

There can't be many families who are so civilised and happy to be all
together!

I am impressed. Wonderful

This is why I don't mind traveling for a feast. I bring a large sliced
ham and a dessert and that's all I have to worry about. But nobody in
the family is overburdened with hours of cooking as everybody pretty
much brings two or three dishes. Certainly no shortage of food!

No, there were no Indians in the UK. Now there are, but there another
kind of Indians.

Tart, yes...my bad.

And have a magnificent Thanksgiving.

Ours should be close to 70!

Bloody hell, can we just assume that all Americans wish all other
Americans Happy Thanksgiving, also to their family and extended
family, and for last year retroactively and next year and the entire
century to come?
