No oysters for me. No shell"fish". Ever. In anything. The first time I heard of oyster stuffing in turkey, I thought it was a joke.
Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
You don't put it in the turkey, if that helps.

Tep,
I call that form of nostalgia, "Saturday."
Heh. I may or may not have put Ally McBeal DVDs on hold at the library. (They don't have Dawson's Creek DVDs in the library system, which is probably a good thing.)
Come to think of it, this media nostalgia happens every year around this time, and I usually address it with library DVDs. Two years ago it was 90210 (the original series), and last year it was The O.C.
I wonder what that's all about.

You feel the cold, and long for California... If only thru TV?? Maybe. Just a theory.

Pix, I usually use TJs or some kind of premade bread crumbs as well. I cut any and all corners that don't massively impact the tastiness of the meal. I R LAZY.

I've never had oyster stuffing, but I'll try it if it turns up at Thanksgiving one of these years.
My sausage stuffing recipe is pretty simple: bread cubes, butter, sage, cooked sausage, chicken stock.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Our sausage stuffing is some mix of sweet and hot Italian sausage, sauted onions, stale bread or croutons, Bell's seasoning, and turkey or chicken broth.

Yeah, I need to do that whole make a list thing since everyone is coming to my house for Thanksgiving. I told Bobby we could go to the grocery store after 10 tonight so I don't get too aggravated. List. Must make one.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We always cook and decided for the first time to go out. We've both been traveling a lot and away from each other, so we blew off family invites and going to our favorite local tiki place for T-Day on a date.

Excellent plan, Scrappy. One year when I had had enough I took the boys camping in Key West for Thanksgiving. The only thing I messed up was not having someone take the dog because the boys and DH were off fishing and swimming and enjoying and I was stuck in the tent dog sitting. I did get at ton of reading done and it was generally grand, but I was rather restricted.
I have always broken up the stale bread for stuffing, but I am so seriously time crunched this year I want to just buy something. Anyone have a rec that does not involve the non-existent Trader Joe? Just now starting my shopping list.
