While I prefer turkey over ham, (I don't like ham at all), my family rarely eats a traditional Thanksgiving dinner. We usually go out to dinner so Mom doesn't have to spend all day cooking, and because most of the restaurants are usually closed on Thanksgiving, we usually end up at a Chinese Restaurant with an all-you-can-eat buffet. Sometimes they even have turkey on the buffet. :)

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Oh turkey is a must. Not to mention cranberry sauce and stuffing.

There will be turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, yams, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, bread rolls, salad, and lots of pie. Plus whatever else people end up bringing.

Also deviled eggs, sushi, veggies and dip, and hummus for appetizers.

Turkey with stuffing (not stuffed), mashed potatoes, roasted vegies, gravy, fruit, green salad (maybe), crescent rolls, pumpkin & pecan pies, Martinelli's sparkling cider, wine, Pacifico beer.

Its a month early but we always have a Ribeye roast for Christmas. :)

My family does that as well. Though last year it was actually a roast and crab legs.
I don't do seafood though, so I stuck with just beef.

I was invited to a Thanksgiving dinner that I couldn't get out of, but normally I would go out to eat like gbgoodies. I made some KeyLime cheesecake to take to the dinner. Not very traditional, but delicious.

I don't like ham or turkey.

There's a bakery near here called "Whistle Stop" that makes the best cheesecake. (I've been told that they're one of the best in the world, and they ship cheesecake anywhere in the world.) I don't like cheesecake, but this bakery is supposedly so good that I usually buy one of their variety cheesecakes (with several different fruits on top) when I'm invited to someone's house as my way of saying Thanks for the invite.

Usually there's so much food left over that people end up bringing food home with them so the host doesn't get stuck with too many leftovers, but this cheesecake is one of the few desserts that's usually gone long before the night is over. (And their variety cheesecake is a very large cheesecake.)

I'm Canadian so we had Thanksgiving a month ago. Turkey is always on the menu at my house although I prefer ham. We eat turkey simply because that's what we have always done at Thanksgiving. Have a happy turkey day people.

I'll have to order a cheesecake from there. I ordered one from The Cheesecake Factory once and I was pretty disappointed. I like mine better.

I'm making a turtle cheesecake Friday because that is what I was in the mood for but everyone wanted KeyLime so I went with that.

Yeah, I've found that cheesecake usually makes people glad they invited you. You're the only person I know that doesn't like it. If I could live on cheesecake and coffee, I would be the happiest person in the world.

Yeah, most people seem to have a problem with that statement, but it's true. It makes people think twice about the cheesecake from Whistle Stop, because they wonder what kind of crazy person brings something for the host that they don't also eat?

But as soon as the first person tries it, that's when the fighting usually starts for who's going to get the biggest piece.

This is a link to Whistle Stop's web site:

I've never ordered from their website because I live close enough to go there and pick it up. I was browsing their web site, and they have a note up that says that they're not shipping right now due to damage from Hurricane Sandy, but there's contact information on the site if you're interested in contacting them. (I knew that their area was hit very hard in the hurricane, but I thought they would be back up and running by now.)

Turkey is for Thanksgiving

Roast Beef is for Christmas

Ham is for Easter

They are all great for sandwiches the next day. If you living right, this is how your living.

Happy Thanksgiving MoFo!!

Is it even legal to eat a meat other than turkey on Thanksgiving? Surely they've made that a law?

I prefer ham.

Turkey's good, but if there's only ham, I won't complain.

It's supposed to be a male aphrodisiac.

As anyone who watched QI tonight will now know, just about every foodstuff is supposed to be an aphrodisiac. No proof for any of them, of course.

Wait, what?

Pumpkin is f*cking delicious. I love it in pie, bread, cheesecake, and roasted pumpkin seeds are one of my favorite snacks.

I also love the smell of pumpkin. I give my rats the mini ones to tear apart and eat and it makes my room smell amazing.

I don't know anyone that likes pumpkin on its own but if used as a garnish or part of a recipe it can be great. Pumpkin pie is my favourite type of pie but I didn't try it for years because I always imagined it to be gross.

I've eaten just plain pumpkin sliced up and roasted. It's good. It's much tastier when mixed with sugar and spices and baked into some sort of dessert but I like it every way I've tried it.

I love pumpkin too and the seeds are delicious. Come October I go pumpkin crazy, get a little tired of it, then go crazy again around Thanksgiving.

My boyfriend's mom made a delicious pumpkin pie. Homemade pies are the best.

My cheesecake went over great. Not a slice left.

Someone once said of pumpkin that it was fit only for cattle and American children. I guess we can add rats to that list. :D
