Are you guys doing stuffing or forgoing it?

Saz, she would never allow low-fat margerine in the house. We go through a pound of butter a week. I believe that I saw her looking at recipes for oyster and chestnut dressing, but I know for sure that cornbread is out, 'cause she hates it. She is also doing eggplant casserole, green bean casserole (the real kind, not the kind that uses canned onion rings and canned mushroom sour), what she calls "Shook Potatoes," that she got from a book of M.F.K. Fischer's, ambrosia fro, her mother's recipe, and mince and pumpkin pie. Should be enough for the first course. ;)

My hatred for Dallas can be summed up in one word: Hatcher [img]graemlins/1pissed.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/1pissed.gif[/img] !

MY hate for Dallas is because they always kick the Oilers outta the Playoffs in the first round [img]graemlins/1pissed.gif[/img]

Not true, you guys have done pretty well against them in '97 and oh, was it '00 or '01.

BTW, don't tell anybody, but I cheer for the Oilers in the playoffs ;)

Ahhh, people who appreciate fine cooking! :D Cornbread is fine if it's done properly, but it's best left alone if you don't like it.

My mom used to make an oyster-and-dirty-rice dressing that was to die for. Also eggplant dressing.

It sounds like you guys have quite a repast planned! [img]smile.gif[/img] I'm going to be cooking a turkey as well, but only for three. Guess I'll be watching the Macy's Parade in the background while it's going, like I do every year.

1) The Flames haven't made it to the playoffs since '96

I finally get home after being out in the mist and rain all day. I think that checking in at Cloudy's would brighten up my day. Yet, what do I find? (Rhetorical question and beginning of a soliquey.)
A wind-racked and cloudy day confronts me in the midst of my own personal hell. The sky itself weeps in sympathy in the face of a tragic death. Yes, Hedda is gone. Shis is not forgotten (*lightening shoots across the sky* *the roar of thunder deafens the ear and shakes the ground*) No! Hedda is not forgotten! She is the source of recipes for that vile triumverate of Cloudy, Saz, and Attalus. I finally find a use for the "Know Alignment" Spell. Such a perdiferous betrayal. Surely my brethren are shocked by the stench of such evil. No. They would rather bash the DALLAS STARS. I weep! My heart breaks! I'm just going to go and drink water out of the toilet. http://216.40.249.192/mysmilies/cont...y_dog_eyes.gif http://216.40.249.192/mysmilies/cont...inted_anim.gif[IMG]

Hey, my dog did that the other day! How's it down there in Dallas? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Note: Isn't it interesting how three posts can be on such an inane subject as drinking water from the toilet? :D
