I am really embarassed that I may seem ungrateful..it being Thanksgiving and all, but it's true.
I lied....I actually am making something. I make a Polish potato pie with kielbasa that I break out before dinner so everyone can fill up.
It is really good.
I would consider giving up my potato ban for some of that pie, sounds good!
Yes, potato ban. Today we had roast lamb dinner, even then I don't have poatoes, they are the devils food!
You ate a lamb? :(
All cuteness aside..I don't like lamb. My friend made it once and because she is a great cook, it was good for what it was...but I just don't like the taste. And I certainly didn't want to be rude.
Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

Oops sorry. We eat lambs in Wales, with gravey and mint sauce. Mmmmmm

(We usually use olive oil, lemon juice and garlic to baste the turkey.)
I would never kid about dumping a bottle of wine on a thanksgiving turkey. Trust me when I say it's fantastic. And because it's wine and not just regular turkey juices, etc, I tend to baste much more than normal. And TC - instead of pounding that wine, try this basting tactic! I'm telling you it is the greatest!!!

Sounds yummy! Do you put gravy on it too or is it ok by itself?
"...believe in lies...to get by...it's divine...whoa...oh, you know what its like..."

I never even thought about that. But it doesn't need any. You can also make it in a square baking dish and cut it into squares or rectangles, rather than pie slices. I break it out as an appetizer. It is quite heavy so we at least get some good food in us before the sister in laws meal.
Steve, I don't make the turkey this year. My turkey is awesome and I use lemon juice, olive oil and white wine or vermouth.
Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

Lol kinda like for people who like square pizza over round pizza? Her food is that bad eh?
I've an easy job this year. We usually just drink wine and beer but my sister asked me to make mixed drinks because lately I guess I've been the bartender at the family get-togethers so I came up with these:
Cranberry Margaritas
1 1/4 cup cranberry juice
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 cup fresh frozen cranberries, rinsed
3/4 cup fresh squeezed lime juice
3/4 cup tequila
1/2 cup Grand Marnier
ice
Pour half of mixture in the blender and fill rest with ice. Blend. Repeat with second half of mixture. Makes 2 blender batches.
White Cransicle
4 ounces Ocean Spray White Cranberry Juice Drink
1 ounce vodka
1/2 ounce Crème de Cacao
1/2 ounce Triple Sec
1 ounce heavy cream (or half and half)
Pour juice, vodka, Crème de Cacao and Triple Sec over rocks in a doubles glass; add a splash of cream, stir and serve. Garnish with a cherry.
Makes 1 serving.
Pumpkin Pie Cocktail
1 oz Malibu rum
1 oz Kahlua
6 oz milk
1/3 tsp cinnamon
1/2 to 1 tsp pumpkin pie filling (depending on desired taste)
Blend all ingredients together in a blender with a few cubes of ice. Serve in a glass rimmed with very finely crushed graham cracker crumbs. Sprinkle more cinnamon on top for garnish.
I'm thinking the pumpkin pie cocktail maybe a little too heavy cuz we need to save room for all that delicious food. I can't freakin wait!
Anyone know of a good Thanksgiving mixed drink/cocktail?
"...believe in lies...to get by...it's divine...whoa...oh, you know what its like..."
same as last year...reservations.
just 4 of this year so all the more reason, dinner at a nice restaurant and we all can get what we want, no cleanup, and just enjoy each other's company. tis all good.
That sounds really cozy and surprisingly enjoyable.

I would consider giving up my potato ban for some of that pie, sounds good!

I am sure people in India are appalled that we eat cows.
And maybe you have turkeys in your petting zoos over there. lol
