2 22 pound turkeys, potatoes, gravy, dressing, various salad types ( lettuce, pea, etc) various types of fruit and whipped cream salads, home made bread, home made dinner rolls, 8 different kind of pies and ice cream. Probably going to be a home made gooseberry pie in there also.

We started having thanksgiving for my wife's side at our house a long time ago. At first it annoyed me as it interferred with football. Now I look forward to having 40 people in the house. Food, Football, Food, Football and then we play games and other stuff. As most everyone lives inside of 8 blocks away most stay until midnight or later. I really enjoy it now. The homebread is my responsibility and it is fun.



Hope you all have a fun and safe holiday.

Ate at my sister-in-laws house (2nd wife to my brother-in-law). Insisted she do it all herself, first time at their house.



Turkey (cooked WAAAAYYYY too long in a counter top broiler/baker (12 hours!).

Sausage stuffing (baked in oven not in bird).

Some type of gravy.

Squash cassarole.

Brocolli/pea/cauliflower salad.

Mashed potatoes.

Cranberry (jelly only) and pickle/olive assorment.



Pumpkin pie and an apple/blackberry pie.



Made us wait till 5:15PM to eat (was supposed to be ready at 4) and her 'snacks' for us to munch on while waiting was one bowl of chips with a '3 layer nacho dip'.



All in all a forgetable experience. Food was okay, just took way too long and pretty much cold by the time it was served.



This was probably the first Thanksgiving in 40 years that I haven't had some type of role/duty in preparing the Thanksgiving meal. For the past 25+ years, my mother-in-law had always had me do the Turkey and stuffing - even at her house.



Wife and I returned home (10 days away) on Saturday. Yesterday found a 'fresh turkey' and cooked it up with stuffing and sweet potatoes. More to our liking.
