HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!

[Sue20]

Wanted to drop in and wish all the terrific people here a Happy Turkey Day!! Hope everyone gets their own wing to chew on during the games (that's my husband's second favorite thing to do on Thanksgiving-his first favorite is, welllll??) :D
I also wanted to say that we've been in the middle of moving into our new home, so I've been neglectful of my "hostess" duties. Hope I still have a job here??! When I give thanks this year for my many blessings, at the TOP of my list is the great and helpful new friends that I met here this year, who never hesitatee to help me with all my silly questions and tile dilemmas while construction was ongoing! Thanks for all the advice and laughter....I will be back after we're settled in....only 50 more boxes to go through!!! Thanks, Sue :) :) :)

Of course, I meant TURKEY wing to chew on, just in case there's any confusion?????? :o

Sue, don't forget to get us a few pictures when you're done.

The best T-day would be one in which I don't have to eat any of my MIL's dessicated turkey. ;)

THANKS Sue...oh and Thanks again.:)

HAPPY TURKEY

[Sonnie Layne]

Thanks, Sue.

Having not quite finished moving in, hope you don't have a big crowd to cook for.

Me, I'm fryin' one over at my friends place. Hmmmm, I just thought, they had a huge fire just a few weeks ago at his condo complex. Lost 24 units completely, 3 people died. They may be gun shy, I'd better call and axe. Horrible incident and I wouldn't want the sight of the near-inevitable flames to cause any remorse.

I'll open a fine bottle of red for all youse gize on that day as well!!!

Sonnie,

Set up your cooker out by the edge of the pool just in case. ;)

Hi Sue,

Happy Thanksgiving to you, too. And as Cami said, we are looking forward to a picture or two. ;)

Remember when I tried Sonnie's recipe for deep fried Turkey? He never said a word about outdoors.

Happy Thanksgiving Sue.

Are you sure that the cook isn't the one who got "fried"!!!! :D
Hey, we had a fried turkey last year at a friend's house, it was really great. He did set it all up in his backyard, though. They are tasty and crispy, but you have to really be careful with that much hot oil in the large and easy to tip over deep fryer. I say "go for it", just be cautious, and what the heck,invite all the neighbors, if you cook it outside, they'll all want to come out to watch the process, anyway. Good luck.... Gobble Gobble!!!!
P.S. I will try to get a friend to put some of our pics "on line", alas, I am webtv challenged, can't scan pics with this here contraption. May have to ask Santa for a computer this year!

The only people that showed up at my house that year were the Firemen.

Sonnie, has my attorney's process server found you yet?

[Sonnie Layne]

Sue, Ya gotta have at least four legs underr them cookers.

Jim, uhhh, I think I'm off the books, but if they find me would you ask them how they did it??? :)

BTW, cornish hens are much less deliterious, less scary and very nummy! Besides, if everyone doesn't show up, you got something you don't mind eating for the next week.

Or you can do as I do... just invite the folks over that you don't really give a crap about when all the good stuff is gone and tell them how glad you are to see them and how happy you are that they showed up for the feast.

This calls for a lot of broccolli sallad and such... :) Be sure to add a bunch of carrotts.... they're cheap.

On the other hand, anyone that will email me an address, I'll send a parcel of Sonnie's World-renowned, Southern Kick-Ass Cajun, Gator-Chasin Secret, yet World Reknowned Recipe'dd spices.

Sue,

You can get very excellent E-machines (computer brand) for about $400. Uprades are $500 after rebates. We have three of them here. I'm still using an old Compac, but it's better than web-tv! :shades:

Turkey came out great, first year I'd used my own spices as the injected ingredients.

Scary kinda stuff as I decided to do it in the kitchen. (I had some spare extra stainless steel from a job recently) Really spooky, glad we had good weather so we could open all the windows.

But... chicken-fried gruyere and hot-dipped dill/garlic basted olives were a fun part of a drunken evening. Hmmm I'm tryin' to remember, but I think the Shiraz was the red wine hit of the night, went well with the cheezes. Like I said, I'm tryin' to remember, :D
