I love Thanksgiving. It usually makes me laugh. My family is so not uptight or ridged. The damnedest things happen too. When I was in college, we went to my Grandparents in Muskogee Oklahoma for Thanksgiving. They were older so decided to order dinner instead of make everything. The day before we get there about 4pm. After talking to "Mammy & Papa" for a while my Mom asks where the dinner is, because it isn't in the refrigerator. They had picked it up around 10am and it would be reheated on Thanksgiving Day. So my Grandmother says, "It's in the front room." WTH???? She tells us it's fine because it's cool in there. Are you freaking kidding me? They didn't refrigerate it! We rush in and put it in the frig then contemplate what to do. Do we try to get another meal together? Do we risk food poison? Do we tell the rest of the relatives? Let's just say there was a WHOLE lot of praying going on that Thanksgiving. Did ya know that if you accidentally or intentionally leave turkey out for 6 hours, there is good chance it won't kill you or even give you butt explosions? I'm just say'in! :)
Hope your Thanksgiving is everything you want it to be!

My ex-SIL cooked her first turkey without washing it! I don't know why I asked her if she had given the bird a bath. I passed on the turkey that year.
ow, butt explosions. I think I may try to eat a little less tomorrow in fear of them
i so do not need butt explosions. i wonder why turkey is so much more scary than any other meat...
This is too funny... my husband who ate bad turkey once as a child, makes me keep a platter of ice under the turkey while serving...just to be safe.
I have to say... I never want to experience butt explosions.
