I don't like turkey, I'd rather have ham. But bring on the stuffing and mashed potatoes with gravy. Sweet potatoes. Cranberry sauce (or chutney or relish - whatev, as long as it is homemade, preferably by me. My MIL made it this year and...meh.). I can take or leave the green bean casserole, this year it was watery, so no thanks. And pumpkin pie? Well, I baked two Apple Butter Pumpkin Pies, one with streusel. I don't even like pumpkin in pie form. I'd rather have pumpkin noodles. Pumpkin Ravioli. Pumpkin anything but pie. Anyway, my point is - I don't judge. Eat what you like, what you can find that you like. <br /><br />Also, I don't do that whole Black Friday thing. So ridiculous. <br /><br />P.S. - My hubby and I are the reigning Trivial Pursuit Champs.

I'll make them with ground turkey!" I typically say this on Christmas as well. I'd rather snack all day on my mom's 5 layer (taco!) dip than have a gigantic, traditional Christmas meal.<br /><br />But my husband loves the stuff. I guess should just be thankful that I don't have to cook any of it! This time, we're going to a restaurant for our Thanksgiving dinner since we've had too much snow to drive to family, so I don't have to worry about offending anyone when I tell them to hold the candied yams.

The rest of them can keep the rest of the stuff for themselves. Come to my house, I'll cook whatever you like along with my pumpkin pie! You could just remind them that it is a day of Thanksgiving and they should remember that rather than fixate on what you are or are not eating. <br />The whole winning thing, you go girl!<br /><br />Michelle<br />AlabamaMeesh1957https://www.blogger.com/profile/07209432596365751053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043728711737537928.post-28631755670795968772010-11-24T19:05:46.576-06:002010-11-24T19:05:46.576-06:00too funny! i wish i hated all that food that i dev...too funny! i wish i hated all that food that i devour on thanksgiving! however, i am not a black friday shopper either! too crazy! i hope you have a wonderful and guiltfree thanksgiving! xoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043728711737537928.post-47417291930332373272010-11-24T17:41:17.232-06:002010-11-24T17:41:17.232-06:00You are too cute!

But I think TG is about being thankful for our blessings and bounty, regardless of what's on the menu. If you came to my place, I'd be happy to whip up some fish tacos for you. And I'd be happy to let you play games with someone other than me. I'm more of a "Look how cute the little pieces are! Let's name them!" type of board game player, with little regard for the rules. You'd not be down with that.<br /><br />Happy TG to you and yours, whatever you consume.<br /><br />jbhatAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043728711737537928.post-64315205189906332442010-11-24T11:47:44.881-06:002010-11-24T11:47:44.881-06:00Haha....love this Michelle :) I love Thanksgiving ...Haha....love this Michelle :) I love Thanksgiving for the getting together and cooking part.

One of my twin sons absolutely dislikes anything served at Thanksgiving, he is extremely picky due to he cannot smell and food is all about texture...he gags with mashed potatoes also. My other two sons in the last couple of years acquired a taste for the turkey meal. So, years ago when the boys were about 5 & 4 and I could see that the turkey meal was not a favorite...I started our own tradition....we have a huge breakfast on turkey day....bacon, sausage, pancakes, french toast, hash browns, eggs, sausage gravy, biscuits and our dessert is usually cinnamon rolls, coffee cake, etc. Have a Happy Thanksgiving.<br />ToniThe Tattered Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06837503058728587078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043728711737537928.post-89017199007202884842010-11-24T10:23:08.192-06:002010-11-24T10:23:08.192-06:00hi michelle,

I get the "That's not enough to keep a bird alive" comment every year. I don't like turkey, I can take or leave casseroles, and mashed potatoes are not my thing. My Thanksgiving plate usually consists of the driest, crustiest corner of dressing I can find, along with canned cranberry sauce and a blob of sweet potato casserole ONLY if it's covered in marshmallows.Celestehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15038768339285014029noreply@blogger.com
