Homework

Don't really know of anything noteworthy beyond that but it will be simple since there will prolly only be about 6 of us. I'm not the main chef, just a participant. So far my only assigned duties are to peel the taters for cooking and mashing but I'll prolly get rooked into doing something else.

Stuffing

Mashed potatoes

Gravy

Green bean casserole

Yeast rolls

Apple pie

Walt pinot noir

I’ll make turkey pot pies from the leftovers since it will just be three people.

Stuffing

Mixed veggies

Ice cream

I make a mean stuffing... and I don't need no stinkin' turkey to stuff it into, neither!

Thanksgiving dinner will be a collaborative effort, thankfully...in years past I did all the cooking and finally griped about it last year...

Roast turkey with a couple extra thighs, since most of my family, especially my wife, prefer dark meat (guess that's why she was attracted to me in the first place)...me

Honeybaked ham...sister bringing

Chinese chicken pan fried noodles...sister bringing for the grand daughters

stuffing casserole...me

mashed potatoes...me...SIL's mom's fave

turkey gravy from scratch...me

Hope you all have the best Turkey Day possible🍺 🍺 🍺

Ordered from Chef Chai’s Pacifica restaurant:

Naked Jumbo Black Tiger Prawns made with a Lemongrass Garlic Vinaigrette

Soup - Roasted Kabocha Pumpkin and Lobster Bisque

Entree - Roasted Turkey with Thai Sticky Rice, chestnut stuffing, giblet gravy, young French long beans, baby carrot and cranberry apricot chutney

Dessert - Chocolate cake with pumpkins mousse and French berries.

Daughter is gonna make mashed potatoes

SIL doing his Green Bean Casserole using a recipe from a h.s. classmate of mine

Son is bringing fresh poke and Hamachi for sashimi

Wife is gonna make cranberry jello and Pumpkin Surprise for dessert

I was hesitant about ordering the meal since I genuinely like turkey and the leftover meals afterwards. I fear there won’t be enough turkey to last 4-5 days.

Turkey, Ham, stuffing, green beans, Crudite (that’s a veggie plate with ranch), mashed potato with garlic and parsley.

French bread - but also Burn-N-Serve roles (tradition)

Punkin pie with whipped cream.

Chardonnay and Pinot noir

Cognac and Scotch

Hope all you boys have a great one!

We’ll be having a few Walt and Dutton Goldfield Pinots for certain!

Pinot has become my standard Thanksgiving wine. The daughter has got into petite Syrah so I’ll have a bottle on hand.

who you hosting...Mexico?

Dat's a ton of food bro!

interestingly (at least to me) is that we have no word in English for the parents of our married children's spouses...does that make sense?

In Yiddish, my married daughter's in-laws are called our machatunim...the "im" makes it plural, the "ch" is pronounced as if you are clearing a pube from your throat...ma-cha-Tun-im

I'm gud wif wirds.
