Happy Thanksgiving all! headed out to Mom's with cake and pie!
This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

“Not dead yet!”
Glad you're loving it even after an icepocalypse, living on a hill, Barb! :)
Heh-- yeah, it's a bit of an adventure, but at least I have ten years of Ohio winter experience to fall back on. And as much as I miss my little BMW convertible, I'm quite grateful to have my SUV now.

Heh. Spoken like a Southern Ohio res.

My Buffistas are WAY up near the top of the list of Things What I Am Thankful For. (Also thankful for being able to end sentences with prepositions.)
Damn right. I am also thankful for these things.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Seska, congratulations!
Happy Thanksgiving, y'all, wherever you are, whatever you're cooking and eating, whomever you're with (or without), whatever you're grateful for today.
Whether you celebrate or not, you're all a large part of what I'm grateful for.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Heh, Scrappy. Last year after the fam Thanksgiving, D and I on impulse called a few friends who were in town for the holiday, and a few couples came over with random leftovers, some wine and a little weed.
A few people smoked, everyone got a little tipsy on wine and it was fun because I never socialize on holidays with non-fam. However, D and I decided not to have friends over this year...because we had no damn leftovers after that! It was like a happy plague of locusts hit us.

Woo Seska! Congrats!
I'm having coffee for the first time today, because I neglected to have it this morning before going to a friend's for Thanksgiving dinner, and now my brain feels like it's trying to claw its way out of my skull. Caffeine, my one true love, never leave me.

“Not dead yet!”
Bird was quite nom. Oddly enough, I think I'm most pleased with the cranberry chutney/relish and the gravy. I've had a hit or miss relationship with gravy and this time, it came out just beautifully. I think I'm going to stick to the notion that for me, with gravy, simpler is definitely better.
Now we're watching football and waiting to make enough room for chocolate pecan pie.
