Originally Posted By smedley best stop that young lady, as I have rejoined the party.

Pah! Oh and I've just heard they're forecasting snow for the weekend, and I'm working night shifts, harrumph!

I'd blame my oven but it worked just fine on the pies last night. I'd blame Alton Brown's recipe, but I used it w/o a hitch last year. I'd blame the turkey calculator on foodtv.com but I think the timing was correct. It must just be silly old me! I feel cursed. LOL Oh well, not every Thanksgiving can be perfect.
Originally Posted By SuzieQ The good thing is, turkey will hold! We're done eating and my house is empty! My sister-in-law's mother broke her hip last week and is in a rehab center right now. We can't let Mary have no family with her on Thanksgiving! So everyone came here at noon, we stuffed ourselves, and now her brood is over at the center having a second meal. We're going to surprise hubby's aunt by showing up for dessert at her house. Hubby's family is all there (if they'd been here, it would have been 30 people :-0 ). The second load is in the dishwasher, and as soon as I load it for the 3rd time we'll leave. I'm not in to dishpan hands, LOL.
Originally Posted By Pixie Glitter I had to chew my entire Thanksgiving dinner on one side of my mouth due to the lingering effects of The Pistachio Incident. Still hurts a little. I need everyone to solemnly swear that if they ever see me about to eat a pistachio, they will slap it out of my hand. That was a pretty lame whine, really. I can ordinarily do much better than that. I guess I'm too caught up in the whole being thankful thing. ;-)
Originally Posted By smedley Stupid car isn't working properly again, and I'm working nightshifts, but I have managed to put in a temporary fix to get me through the weekend hopefully. Oh yeah and we're forecast snow at some point over the weekend, would be great, except did I mention I'm working nightshifts? Stupid weather and having to drive an hour to work.
Originally Posted By Labuda And again, our dear smed is channeling Bridget. And, it's NOT an insult in any way, smed - I adore Bridget Jones!
Originally Posted By Pixie Glitter Mouth still hurts. Still have to chew on one side only, and very cautiously at that. I am now calling for an international ban on pistachio nuts, the dirty little buggers.
