So Thanksgiving is among us for those Americans out there. A 4-day weekend of food, family, friends and football! Also, getting stone-drunk...but that didn't start with the letter 'F' But anyways! <_<

Lets get a little discussion going.

What are your plans for Turkey Day Weekend?

Whats for Dinner?! I like hearing how some people have non-traditional items for dinner. Personally I think the traditional Thanksgiving meal is bland and boring, but I still eat every last drop :P Where's the damn hot sauce?! :shakefist:

Me personally I'm going to the Packers vs Lions football game with my immediate family. It will be the 17th straight Thanksgiving Day game we will have attended. Then we are having dinner at our house afterwords which consists of:

Turkey with real and gelatin Cranberry Sauce

Honey Baked Ham

Corn Bread Stuffing

Green Bean Casserolle

Cheesy Potatoes

Sweet Potato Mash

Deviled Eggs

Rolls of course

Chocolate Pecan Pie and Pumpkin Pie

What is everyone else having?

As a Brit, I dont celebrate the day we cut you loose (jk),

But I'm heading to yours for some of that Ham, Potatoes and Pecan pie.

See you Sunday!

The leftovers will be gone by Sunday. Thanksgiving is tomorrow B)

You should see my face when my wife tries to give all the leftovers away to the guests. It's pure panic.

Aww we miss out in the UK. But then we have bonfire night that you don't, but then you have 4th July, and a day off for Halloween. Yeah we're rubbish we don't get days off for nothing.

Anyway enjoy thanksgiving.

Whats this bonfire night?

For the record, we don't get a day off for Halloween.

Thanks ;)

You're telling me, my former high school is about half a mile away from where Saint Patrick is supposedly buried, you can see the Cathedral beside his grave from the school. Do you know how long we got off school? A no school uniform half day. Half a mile away, and we get a half day. Oh joy <_<.

Thanks ;)

Sorry, bonfire night is the more recent term for Guy Fawkes night. Celebrated after the man at the centre of the gunpowder plot. One to Wiki if you're not sure.

We usually have the following on Turkey Day:

 

Turkey

Dressing (stuffing to others)

Cranberry sauce

Veggies

Turkey gravy

And Sweet Potato Pie for dessert (a favorite in the South :awesome:  )

 

And we usually watch a Dallas Cowboys game afterward.
