Light Humor for Thanksgiving

“That turkey has to feed twenty people at my parent’s house and they’re not going to eat it off your head!” —Quote from tv show Friends turkey dos: dance ‘round with dead poultry on your head - don’t light the oven cranberry don’ts: take the time to do yourself - wiggle out of can build Devil’s tower with your mashed potatoes and they’ll think your crazy Thanksgiving dos: stuff yourself a week’s worth of food then eat pumpkin pie

My husband cooked our turkey too, he has for 46 of 47 years of Thanksgivings together! I cooked the 1st, gagging and crying, I was a vegetarian! I was remembering a childhood 'pet' turkey named Clicker (we kids THOUGHT pet, dad thought he meat). 1977, my 1st/last encounter cooking turkey, it WAS like dancing with a dead turkey on my head, but more like in my head, poor Clicker! My hubby is a dear, sounds like yours is too! Still enjoying that pumpkin pie and the leftovers are a blessing!

You had it easy! My husband took hours to get the turkey just right. And it was the most tender! LOL
