Thanksgiving Experiences

The Secret to Mom’s Pumpkin Bread
My cousin asks us
“Why are you guys so obsessed?”
Tons of butter, duh!
~K~
It’s Fine, My Plate’s Still Full
Turkey and gravy?
No thanks, pass the yams and peas!
Veggie Thanksgiving
~K~
Sunday, November 28, 8pm
Ignition turned off
Wall of red brake lights ahead
Traffic: kill me now.
~K~

Eat Eat Eat Eat Drink
Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat Drink
Eat Eat Eat Eat Drink

Thanksgiving is fun
But football on Friday rules
My team always wins
~MM~

I weighed one-eighty
Then Thanksgiving came and went
Now I’m one-ninety
~MM~

Rude awakening
First thing on Monday morning
Meeting with my boss
~MM~

My Lunch the Next Day
I Look Forward to the Most
Giant Sandwich, Yum

Bless you, Kate
I’m honored that my
idea’s taken flight, like a
K.R.P. turkey

Why the Mac and Cheese Gets Better Every Year
The best recipes
Include a heaping dose of
Improvisation
~J~

Taste to Season
Soooo...cranberry sauce,
Room temperature, right? Not chilled?
C’mon, who’s with me?!
~J~

Done and Done
Monday's lunch heralds
the end of all leftovers -
Perfect "per portions"
~J~

Thanksgiving 2011
Eyes closed, and head bowed,
Holding hands with my wife and
daughter...I give thanks.
~J~

Turkey Grease
Carving the big bird...
(Should I put on an apron?)
on my clean shirt.
~S~

Tradition, Mine
On Poppy’s big chair,
The feast did it’s real job and
I did close my eyes.
~S~

Trifecta, triumvirate, trilogy
Taters, turkey and
sausage stuffing are the best.
Don’t care ‘bout the rest.
~S~

it's been four days, but
food brain lingers: today i
wore clogs to the gym.
~E[dot]S~

it's sad to leave home.
thank god they still serve cookies
on midwest airlines.
~E[dot]S~

come now: ev'ryone
knows the cranberry is served
cold, with can wibbles!
~E[dot]S~

Four Day Weekend
Family, like pie
Is a blessing best enjoyed
In moderation
~Мир~

Meatless Stuffing?
Vegetarians
Ruin stuffing and gravy
For the rest of us
~Мир~

On a Positive Note
Psychologists say
Gratitude makes us happy.
Let's give thanks for thanks.
~Мир~


In Their Defense, sort of...
Fake sausage stuffing
can be really good! Gravy?
I don’t eat gravy.
~J~

Reclaiming the “B” Word (no, the other one)
Friday, unlike most
“Black”-named historical things,
gets positive press
~J~

Family Dining
Home’s where the heart is,
Which explains why Thanksgiving
Often clogs up both
~J~

Post-Thanksgiving Resolution
I will exercise
Tomorrow. Wait, I've got a
Day shift? Never mind.
~Jay-R~

Ode to the Cape Cod Outlet Mall
"Buy one, get two free."
No, that's not a misprint. I'm
Drowning in new boots!
~Jay-R~


Fiber Is for Sissies
Mom's famous stuffing
Has the makeup of concrete.
Yep, I'm sh1++1ing bricks!
