Although, the family aspect of Thanksgiving is really great. Traditionally you get together with extended family members and just visit (and eat, of course!) It's nice because the commercialism of Christmas isn't involved, it's just about seeing each other. (And eating, of course!)

Oh, well, than I'll await my own eating-marathon at Christmas.

I'm a vegetarian, but I might cook my family some nice chicken. These last few weeks I've seen all kind of unknown, but goodlooking recipes for chicken walking by in the forum. I can pick and choose...

Yep we love chicken 'round here!

Waking up.

I gotta drive 2 hours bright and early to take boy to his soccer match.

Memo to self: Do NOT accept Christmas invitation from desertblues - especially if it contains a specific reference to dinner!

Ooh, WT, good point...my relationship with my droid would be just fine if I moved to another planet!

You guys were all napping and watching footie... I was operating two train companies and playing the stock market.

Ok, I was playing a board game, 18AL with my two sons home from college. I came in second place of 3.... my eldest Derrick took the prize.. bit only by about $500 of net worth, so it was a very close game.

Oh... and since everyone else mentioned their menus... I guess if you can't beat em... join em...

Roasted Turkey
Stuffing
Squash
Sweet Potato Casserole (this was yummy, almost dessert like)
Mashed tatoes
two kinds of gravy
cranberry sauce

now.... the hard part is to get back on the diet with all those left overs in the house.

You will always be an honored portion, err, guest at my dinner table!

I've been hesitant to bring this up, but aren't chickens and turkeys related?

Well, I sure could use some ' inside ' information from a someone with expert experience.

But as always: peace on earth and good will towards all creatures.

oo

Well, I'm no expert, but all of my family members are chickens!

Was just going for the car dash thinger (GPS and Google Nav FTW this weekend!) but they had this and I get 25% off Verizon junk so $80 w/ tax for pretty much everything they make for the Droid X (I already had the hard case).

Sucker!

Actually good for you....I've considered that myself....my commute is pretty short at the moment though.

phenomshel · 11-26-2010, 05:12 PM

I'm telling y'all, without that Google Nav app and the GPS on that Droid, we'd still be wandering in the wilderness of the western 'burbs... LOL. I'm kidding, Chris's sense of direction would have gotten us out of it eventually, but it probably saved us a ton of time last night after my brother in law's directions turned out to be more "mis" than "direction".

GraceKrispy · 11-26-2010, 05:18 PM

It was sort of funny visiting family up there in the windy suburbs this past summer-- EVERYONE (and I do mean EVERYONE) had a GPS system. They were amazed that I had never used one. Well, uh, I have about 3 roads, and eventually they dead end (wherefore you turn around) or they meet up in a circle. And if you do, perchance, get lost, you usually are in an area that google hasn't mapped anyway, so it wouldn't be much help.

I want a car charger for the droid x though!
