Turkey Day!


The Bird: How it is prepared?
John usually fries up the turkey for his family's lunch with his brother.  He injects it with a lot of stuff, and then throws it in the fryer for a while.  It's always delicious.  Usually, my mom bakes the bird, but this year, my dad is having the turkey smoked.  Should be yummy!

The Fixin's: What's your favorite?
Hmm...that's tough.  I guess it's probably green bean casserole, followed by potatoes, crescent rolls, and stuffing :)

Desserts: What can you not resist?
Any apple dessert.  And probably any of the banana/pumpkin/apple bread.  They are all so yummy.  I really don't care too much for pumpkin pie.  It's a texture thing.

Travel: Do you go out of town for Thanksgiving?
No, we're in town.  Most of both sides of our family live in the same area.

And Counting: How many stops do you make?
Usually just two stops.

Traditions: What are yours?
Usually Thanksgiving morning we run the local Turkey Trot, then we go to John's parents to get ready & watch the Macy's parade.  We eat and hang out for a bit and then are onto our next stop at my parents.  By the end of the day, we're full and tired.  Nice...tryptophan comas...


What do you do for Thanksgiving??

Happy Thanksgiving my bloggy friends!!!
