Whatever happened to people staying up all night cooking the Wednesday before Thanksgiving? Does everyone get their dinner from Kroger?

Sounds like you carved out a good gig there. We celebrated on Monday, went to Columbus to be with fam. I got Panera bagels and we will have breakfast with my daughter but then that's it.

I used to do that. Cooking Thanksgiving dinner all night with a bottle of wine to keep me company.

Wife decided that she wanted to oven roast the bird this year instead of Me deep frying it. I offered to put the bird in the oven when I got home this morning, but she already has it going.....So, a couple of beers for Me and then some rack time....

Ok. Hope you get something. The churches around you will be feeding people so it won't be like you're going to a soup kitchen, just so you know. Have a happy day.

Yes, there is ongoing outreach with one big church out of several locations here. It's one day a week but they're closed today and on Christmas if it falls on a Thursday.

I've noticed a bunch of them only do it a couple of days a year and people are grateful but I'm sure if there were some organized outreach, they could feed a lot of people for free. Just their time and effort involved.

I bought a pumpkin pie and some whipping cream so we're all set.

I just have one teenager at home now () so it's a 20 pound turkey for 3. That sounds like toasted turkey sandwiches for some time to come...

When my wife and I were married she could hardly cook a hot dog but after 27 years she's a marvelous cook and her pumpkin pies, pure heaven.
