In a related story, my niece Stephanie had written a story for school about family traditions on Thanksgiving. In it she wrote of the annual hike to Buttcrack Rock. Well, she got in trouble for using the word "buttcrack" in her story, and eventually had to change it to simply "The Rock".
Wow, do teachers really think they're all that these days? What a crock of..........

Happy Thanksgiving to all.
We had a wonderful day with family. For the first time in a long time, all three of my children were home. The oldest is back from Iraq, stationed a few hours away, the youngest boy home for the weekend from college, and the little girl is so excited to have her big brothers home. Our oldest's girlfriend came too, she has two little ones. So Hubby and I are getting to practice being grandparents. I could really get used to that!!

I have a turkey recipe....
Here it is....
I thought this sounded good! Here is a turkey recipe that also includes
the use of popcorn as a stuffing ingredient -- imagine that. When I found
this recipe, I thought it was perfect for people like me, who just are not
sure how to tell when turkey is thoroughly cooked, but not dried out. Give
this a try.
8 - 15 lb. Turkey
1 cup melted butter
1 cup stuffing (Pepperidge Farm is Good)
1 cup un-popped popcorn (ORVILLE REDENBACHER'S LOW FAT IS BEST)
Salt/pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Brush turkey well with melted butter, salt, and pepper.
Fill cavity with stuffing and popcorn. Place in baking pan making sure the
Neck end is toward the front of the oven, not the back.
After about 4 hours listen for the popping sounds.
When the turkey's arse blows the oven door open and the bird flies across
the room,.... it's done.
And, you thought I didn't cook...
I hope everyone at BC had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Got this from a friend.....
We don’t buy each
other gifts.
No four week countdown.
No too tempting cakes, cookies and
candy.
No pressure for a "White Thanksgiving" (except maybe for the ski
resorts).
No one proclaiming that we've taken the "Thanks" out of
Thanksgiving.
No stats on consumer spending.
It’s about family, friends,
food, home... and football.
This Thanksgiving, I am reminded of, and
celebrate, those things in my life for which I am thankful. I hope you will do
the same and carry them in your heart all year.
Thanksgiving is
one of my favorite holidays.
What I love most about Thanksgiving is
the purity of it.

Philadelphia Thanksgiving Day Parade
The oldest Thanksgiving Day Parade in the country
Then watch Maureen O (fitzsimmons) in Mircle on 34Th street . In one scene she slips and shows her brogue and they leave it in the film. I believe it is the evening scene outside the courthouse when she is talking to Chris. She said "I tink" instead of think
Anyway it is one of our favorite movies !
