Another holiday on my calendar...

It's Thanksgiving AND Hendrix day.
 
I'm sure Jimi could have roasted that turkey with gusto.
 

 

Heck, I'm sure he'd have gotten feedback out of it.

I find that the image that brought to my mind is too disturbing to share!

Now that you're almost an American you have to learn to eat a huge turkey dinner and then shop for a month straight. Is there anything they can't do?

I thought of Great Balls of Fire when I saw the photo. In so many ways I wouldn't mind being American, but as I don't eat Turkey (or other fowl etc including Chicken) and I hate Cranberry in any way, shape or form, I wouldn't enjoy Thanksgiving very much.

Well, our Thanksgiving (and Christmas) dinners have almost always been ham, sweet potatoes, rolls, peas with pearl onions then desert and eggnog for the drink.  So, no turkey or cranberry.

Turkey wasn't a big thing back home either. In fact, I don't think I've ever tasted it before I was in my 20s. But yesterday was my first genuine, big whole turkey. :)
 
Canadian Thanksgiving is not much but a potential day off at work. I can't think of anyone I know who's ever did anything special on that day.
 
 
As for holiday meals, again - ham, meat pies, pearl onions, but most importantly a local layered meat pie called "cipaille", which was THE center of every holiday meal when I grew up.

We've always found Turkey to be very bland and dry type of meat......so, this year instead of the foul, we went for the pig........baby back ribs grilled home style, mashed potatoes, and of course:

Our Thanksgiving tradition involves ordering a couple of Chicago style stuffed pizzas from Giordano's. Instead of spending a dozen or more hours slaving over a single meal, we eat pizza. 
 
Everybody wins.

I didn't hear any complaints. Of course, neither do deaf cannibals, so that argument may be a bit weak.

FWIW Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners have been feast time in my life as far back as I can remember.
Turkey, Honey spiral cut ham, dressing and mashed potatoes with choice of white and/or brown goblet gravy, orange sause for the ham, mashed sweet potatoe with cinnamon and walnuts baked with a marshmellow topping , those little sweet pickles, green and black olives, celery with a cheese mix spread on them, deviled eggs,variety of vegatables, hot rolls, pumpkin and apples pies...and I'm probably forgetting something... this year was no different.
 
My wife is now the cook that knows not only how her mother taught her but mine as well. I've been thankful for every meal. (the only bad turkey I've ever seen at my house was in Christmas Vacation and that was funny as hell!)
They are both times of the year that I take vacation(s). I was off 11 days in Nov. for the holiday and I'll be off 21 days in Dec. for Christmas. Eat, sleep, relax and be merry with the ones I love and very close friends...it's that time of year for me and surely something I'm thankful for while missing the ones that are gone.
