Been cooking and prepping all day all day for 3 days straight. Just finished my desserts. Have a blessed day tomorrow everyone! Thanks be to God!
Got all the food delivered after I ate. Going for a visit and then heading home. Happy Thanksgiving all! I might have a couple cocktails tonight to unwind.
Hey, I LOVE hamburgers, besides that, it doesn't matter what a person eats for Thanksgiving, we always ate what ever we felt like on that day, what is important is that you are all together, food is just a nice addition as far as I am concerned. LOL, I even had hot dogs one year and enjoyed it just as much, if not more, than turkey, to be honest, I do not like turkey.
If I could snap my fingers and all of a sudden all the Thanksgiving items showed up a the kitchen table, hot and steaming, that would be one thing. But it doesn't work that way. I don't dislike turkey (I do love the sides of Thanksgiving though, so it kind of hurts me not to have those) but even when we used to have good Thanksgivings, I would ask myself "I like this stuff but should we have to do this much work for it?"
Several survived, so I focused on those.

I am enjoying myself here watching a bit of TV and having a cranberry vodka! I hope you had a blessed day!
I remember our Thanksgivings in Cle Elum, it seems like it took so long to prepare and to clean up, the food was always tasty, but man, I agree, does it have to require so much prep and clean-up? That being said, however, I would do it all over again just to have my hear folks and friend back for another Thanksgiving.If I could snap my fingers and all of a sudden all the Thanksgiving items showed up a the kitchen table, hot and steaming, that would be one thing.

My hamburgers turned out kind of dry though, but I ate it with thanksgiving (no pun intended). The fries (they were Ore Ida lol) got overcooked though
A whole chicken is a good alternative. It's filling without making your gut as hard as a basketball (like turkey does). It doesn't make you sleepy if you get full on it. There's chicken stuffing if you don't do turkey stuffing. It goes just as well with typical Thanksgiving sides as turkey does. It's a win-win.
