Going out to dinner - Thanksgiving isn't celebrated here so I'm thinking a nice appetizer of salmon and a small salad with Bombay Sapphire and tonic, perhaps pork belly and a glass or two of shiraz for the main course and creme brulee for dessert and a few more glasses of shiraz since we're walking home.

Turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, and my favorite oyster dressing. My maternal grandmother made this for years until she passed away, now my mother carries it on and I love it!

damn right. If I have to live overseas I'm living it up. Eff you guys in cornpone land, I'm having a real dinner as opposed to dry turkey and crappy over-caloried side dishes. If turkey was that awesome, why do we only eat it once a year? If you factor in leftovers for a week it isn't a cost issue.

Dinner time does not sound like a good time at the Belly house.

At our house, everything is set on the table, we say grace, then everyone digs in.

Not sure what everyone else is bringing, but I am making the turkey and my wife is making green bean casserole, cranberry sauce (not the canned bullshit), and some banana bread.

We're brining our turkey tonight (first time brining one ... hear it makes for a great bird though, so I'm all for it), making brioche-pear-italian sausage stuffing, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, and squash. Brother-in-law and family are bringing sweet potatoes, FIL and MIL brought assorted pies from Michigan.

My method prevents the initial interruption, ongoing passing of food and the continues delay of conversation and eating. What happen with seconds is a other matter... Fend for yourself

Is there also a set time you must eat each portion? God forbid someone dares to eat too fast.
