I just said that you're pretty. Even when you're covered in...engine grease, you're... No, especially, especially when you're covered in engine grease.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I'm having trouble figuring out what can be chopped now and kept until being assembled closer to the date, how far out things can be assembled.

Buzzfeed has you covered for the basics.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I've struggled with plans for T-Day due to some family uncertainty. A couple of days ago, one of his ARP buddies invited us to a potluck T-Day and it looks like that is what we are going to do.

But I asked what we should bring and was told "food". So, I figure a pie and something...just not sure what that something should be.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Something you like to eat, in case the other potluck offerings are sketchy.

CJ just added "meat" to the "food", so I'll bring a ham, I think.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I've always just made the sausage stuffing without a recipe. Hrm.

Just went online and ordered a turkey dinner from Gelsons. I am too frazzled to actually cook the whole dang meal from scratch. It's hard enough work making all the dang sides, including the sausage stuffing.

I was going to kinda wing it. Make some cornbread, get it kinda dry, cook a bit of veggies, cook some sausage, add about twice as much sage as people recommend, throw it all together with some stock and cook it. Does an egg go in there?

I really can't believe people trust me to cook. I do promise not to totally wing the turkey.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Ah hah hah hah. I see what you did there.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Yes, Thanksgiving really calls for a clean kill. Labor Day maybe.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

That sounds right, Cass. We've never used egg.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

My first thanksgiving away at university, I volunteered to make the turkey for my group of friends. They were all horrified at my family's stuffing recipe - a mixture of cubed whole wheat bread, a mashed potato, chopped onion and summer savory. Hey, we like it. I can't remember whether my friends liked it (or if they even tried it).

Stuffing really does seem to be the most variable component of a turkey dinner. I have to say I boggled at the amount of butter in the Buzzfeed stuffing recipe.
