We have been so sad this whole year because we knew this would happen ..

If there is a church/adult center/homeless center, etc. in your area - you may want to consider serving Thanksgiving dinner to the less fortunate. It can be fun for both sides - you share a meal with some interesting people (depending on where you go) and have fun serving it, and often helping prepare it, and they get to celebrate the holidays with people who will treat them with respect and provide them with a good meal.

Well, my brothers and sister and I as well as our families usually all come together on Thanksgiving but this year it looks like we will be separating due to a few circumstances. I will be going to my bfs parents house. This will be the first holiday I will spend with his family and I am pretty excited.

She has asked me to make mac and cheese and I am making the crock pot mac and cheese I got off this very site!

I have no idea what she will be making. I know SO will have a meatloaf because he doesn't eat turkey or ham. He calls me a weirdo! humpff!

This Thanksgiving and Christmas may be the last year of good holidays for a lot of people.

And if there will be a turkey shortage, maybe we can switch to chickens.....those critters run around and sure are good in any chicken recipe.

Or ducks, geese, quail, partridge, emu, ostrich ...

What a beautiful turkey!!! I want a bite of that right now... in fact, a turkey sandwich would be just right!

What did you do to it to get such a beautiful color???

Inquiring minds want to know!

Thanks Best! I love leftover turkey in sandwiches too! I think my wife just rubs butter on and under the skin. But, she does inject with a Cajun Creole Butter. I'll try to get more info tomorrow.
