....we are going to spend the day with my Dad....I know it's got to be as difficult for him as it is me.....The 'first' holidays for a year can be difficult. But I promise you, it will get easier and your comfort will come from all those happy memories you have shared.
Take good care , see you when you are back here!!Since it's unlikely I'll be around to post tomorrow, I'll wish everyone (well, the US lot ) a happy Thanksgiving now. Hope you all have a great few days (especially you, Scott; I know it's going to be rough, but...well, enjoy it where and as much as you can. I wish you and yours all the best).
Have a wonderful day!!Happy Thanksgiving to all!! Count your blessings and be happy that you get another day!! (Gobble till you wobble )
My sincerest wishes for a good day with your dad and family, sir.....we are going to spend the day with my Dad....I know it's got to be as difficult for him as it is me.....
Sending this your way. Maybe you can go back in time and find that roaster, or better yet, go into the future and be done with "turkey day". Have a calm and enjoyable Thanksgiving!!Soooooo much more to do to get ready. Really behind this year. Also, my brother wants to make his bacon wrapped scallops on my grill Thanksgiving day. But the weather is only forecast for a high of 22 F and low of 11 F. He’s even more pig-headed than me, and will grill them outside no matter what – frostbite be damned. So last night I picked up a nice big electric griddle for half-off, and I’m am going to hide my charcoal in the attic space above the garage. Now I just need to figure out where I put the roaster so I can cook the turkey. I’ve got like a week till Thanksgiving to get my act together… right?
LOL. Thanks. I have a roaster but don't know where it is and haven't used in in about 10 years. I was going to borrow a family member's but the cord is damaged. Going into the future and skipping turkey day sounds GREAT! Wish I could do it for every holiday gathering at my place.Sending this your way.

You could always deep fry the turkey. I can help!Soooooo much more to do to get ready. Really behind this year. Also, my brother wants to make his bacon wrapped scallops on my grill Thanksgiving day.

Sure thing... Just let me suit up first before you get anywhere near that thing..You could always deep fry the turkey. I can help!
And NEVER EVER deep fry a frozen turkey.I like deep fried turkey...However, a gentle reminder to do that outdoors!
