OT - the heck with Xmas - who's is getting ready for Thanksgiving
I've got all my ingredients except the herb mix I use. I may just mix my own
this year. I'm working Monday and then again on Friday so I have plenty of time to get things peeled, chopped, parboiled and roasted to melty goodness. I might even get some real stitching time in.... C |

I know this is mean, but it is late and night and it has been a long day at the store, and none of the tills balanced properly so..... (Big smug smile) Thanksgiving is already over where I am.

Dawne That is mean, but I'm going to shop today for the ingredients for the most decadent chocolate truffle pie on earth that will come with me to my friends house on Thanksgiving. Lucky me, she will do all the hard work and I get to do the chocolate. Lucille |

OT - the heck with Xmas - who's is getting ready for Thanksgiving
My son is cooking the turkey at his home. Everyone (me, his sister, his inlaws)
are bringing appetizers, side dishes, and/or desserts. If my daughter isn't making it, I'm supposed to bring the ever popular green bean casserole. I'm also going to bring 'hello dollies' because a holiday feast isn't complete without chocolate. A recipe for the cookies can be found at: http://www.cooks.com/rec/view/0,1613,147176-241198,00.html -- another anne, add ingers to reply |

It's nice to top it with a dollop of whipped cream too, just to add a little more unhealthy fat. ;^) |

(Big smug smile) Thanksgiving is already over where I am. Dawne I don't think it was mean. Thanksgiving has long been over here, as well. We don't do thanks only on one day, anyway. It's another overblown holiday, as well. I mean, I'm happy for people who have families who celebrate, but it really reminds me of barbarians who would grab hunks of meat and cheese and stuff themselves while the slaves chained to the cave starved. How's that for mean? LOL Well, a bit vivid!!---but not really mean. Working in a store for the past couple of holiday seasons has really opened my eyes. For so many people, any holiday seems to be just one more reason to shop. My store is not in a mall, but next to one, and like all of the stores in the mall we are open every day of the year except Christmas Day. But only the grocery store in the mall could really be said to be selling necessities of life. Why is that necessary?? When I was growing up the stores were open late one night a week, closed Sunday and Monday, and on many holidays. I know life is more complicated now, and many households do not have someone at home during the day to go shopping, so I understand more night shopping. And Sunday is not universally the day to worship in a multicultural society . But do people have to shop on Thanksgiving Day? The one that troubles me most is Remembrance Day. That day (before going in to work), I listened to a local talk show host trying to whip up support for making it a statutory holiday all across Canada. He was asking "what could Canadians do with that day?" I am sure he was thinking things like visit the veterans section of the cemetary. I told the radio, "They will hit the mall, then pick up a Starbucks and wander through our magazine section, leaving piles of magazines on every chair in the store." I was right. Shouldn't there be a few days when we don't have to shop?? Dawne |
