Thanksgiving Dinner!

[MxAxC-_ATTACK]

There has been so many threads around here lately having to do with such serious things,
So I've decided to start a thread thats fun.

What is your Favorite Thanksgiving day Food "Stuff" haha.
Does your Family do anything special?Any Traditions??

I LOVE stuffing.. and Sweet Potatoes with Brown sugar mixed in.. OH and bread rolls.... CARB-CITY BRING IT ON!!!!

My family used to go to my grandparents house EVERY thanksgiving. but My Grandma Died in August. So this year its at my Uncles house 3 hours away..I won't be able to make it

 

[IslandGirl77]

Everything!!! Nah, just kidding. I love the dinner rolls, mashed potatoes, collards greens, mac n cheese, ham, and the desserts! Ooo, I guess that's evrything. The one day when I dont' feel guilty about eating like a pig!

 

[Bre]

Yum sounds delish!

Will someone put down a recipe for a potato dish?

One day I'm going to visit the US and eat my way through the states

My mom makes the BEST stuffing in the world! Unfortunately for me though, I have to go to my fiancee's family's dinner in MA (we live in CT!) which really sucks. I have a really close family and he's not all that close to his family so I really think it's unfair *pouts*

OH man!! I have to share holidays too.. Last year I had 3 places to be on christmas! it sucked! my BEST friend ever, is married and she has been home for the holidays once in like 5 years.. she hates it because her hubby makes her spend every holiday with his family and she misses hers dearly. its not really fair. His family thru a fit last year when they came to CA for xmas we found it amusing. haha

my mom calls thankgiving "fat day" because its the one day you Can eat like a pig (like stated above) and not feel to guilty about it!!

Yeah I love everything as well and I'm NOT kidding LOL. But, I think I love the stuffing the best. My mom puts some stuffing inside the turkey so it soakes up all the juice and ummmm is it good! I really like the cranberry as well. Not the chunky kind with the cranberrys inside but the kind that comes in the can, yyuuuummm!

Every year I share Turkey Day with my family and my mans family but this is the last year were doing this cause were moving to another state at the end of January. As of next year, were starting our own traditions but it's not going to be the same without my family! Guess it's all part of growing up and haveing your own family.

Ohhh Cranberry.. the kind that comes out of the can. shaped like the can!

 

[Chic 2k6]

[MxAxC-_ATTACK]

That's the one!!! I can sometimes just eat that all by itself! haha

 

[MxAxC-_ATTACK]

we have to buy several cans of it because my brother , who is 14 and like 6 ft 2 & 180 lbs eats it all!(hes a big teen!) he loves the stuff and never leaves any for me.. my boyfriend likes gravy on his Cranberrys.. haha.. i think its gross. I dont really like gravy.

 

[NutMeg]

Lol, this is so crazy for me because Canada has Thanksgiving like a month earlier than the States. It's nice because you have enough time to get unfat before Christmas comes and you do it all again! My favourite food is when you take the mashed potatoes and put turkey and gravy on them and mix it all around. Heaven. I am the hugest potato fiend.

I'm making the turkey this year, brined and roasted a la Alton Brown. I'm so excited

Me too!!!! good ol'e Alton Brown. I love it!

 

[SChotgurrl]

Mmmmmm canned cranberry sauce!!!!!! I always buy extra cans to take back with me to school b/c I find that I just CANNOT eat turkey without it anymore. I would always bring back soooo much friggin leftovers, only to find myself just miserable when I realized there was no C.B. sauce

I mean forreal it would just ruin all the excitement of coming [from class or rehearsal] to a big plate of mom's cookin---with NO cranberry sauce!!!

Oh yes, I also LOVE my mom's homemade turkey gravy...plus dinner/Hawaiian sweet rolls!!!

Mmmm...Hawaiian sweet rolls, I eat those when there is no special occasion! LOL A little taste of home for me.

I just love cooking it all. In the end, I'm really not that hungry afterwards!

nothing gets between me and my mother's turkey,stuffing,and cranberry sauce. out of all the dinners that i have throughout the year....thanksgiving is my favorite.it's especially cool this year because we are having our first of hopefully many thanksgivings at my new home.
