Butter Giving, Thanksgiving

Thursday, 27. November 2008, 18:36:16

Thanksgiving should be about "Thanks" for our blessing ,
I am thankful for many things in my life, especially for being blessed with great kids,friends and family.Learning about Thanksgiving it could be fun, not just because it is a wonderful American Tradition but also because it is associated with gatherings and what else ? Food...
The Cooking of a Turkey can make the Thanksgiving more glamorous..I am delighted to see that the way it is cooked has "Come a long Way....":lol:
This video it is buttery delicious! Enjoy! and Happy Thanksgiving!!!

my 126lbs , 34D, 24inches waist will remain as they are David,
my photos will in the mail soon to prove it! :heart:

I hope you and Mrs Ravo had a delicious time together! :heart:

Ravo 28. November 2008, 03:07

Your description of those photos makes me salivate like one of Pavlov's dogs---of course, that salivation could be due to my sister's cooking, which was superb. We had a nice time! :smile:

dragon_harrower 28. November 2008, 03:28

Happy Thanksgiving Angeliki! :smile:

ellinidata 28. November 2008, 03:38

David,
Ivan's training did not reach this Greek girl,
but salivating is the only thing I have left enjoying these days! :lol:
I am delighted to know Thanksgiving in Utah was a delight! :smile:

Casey,
Happy Thanksgiving to you and to you family!
hugs to LB,
thank you for your good wishes! :love:

dragon_harrower 28. November 2008, 03:54

I'm more than happy to share the wishes. :smile:

One American turkey can feed 60 African families! :yikes:.
What do you do with the left overs? :left:.
P.S: they say "never bake your turkey higher than 300 degrees." My oven tops out at 270 degrees. :lol:

ellinidata 28. November 2008, 15:54

:lol:
is it 270F or C ??? (the 300F it is very low this way the Turkey doesn;t get dry and cooks all the way through)....
I always order from Omaha Stakes (a well known order by mail company)a precooded Turkey breast, it is no hasle and I have no lefovers....
for the big families there is the "after Turkey Day" meals ,
there are 494736782302-934748747 recipes to follow,
I find these the best for starters:

DBabbit 29. November 2008, 05:00

I would love for you to come down - and bring the kids! We start cooking at least a week before, put everything in the freezer, and then start heating it all up Thanksgiving Eve. I'd like to have a smoked turkey next year - That'll happen if I can remember to pick up some hickory chips and charcoal! :lol:



ellinidata 29. November 2008, 18:07

I imagine how delicious that turkey will taste and I salivate already!!! :lol: enough reason to dream of Georgia for a year! :smile: thanks Denise :heart:

Olgita 2. December 2008, 20:15

Angeliki! Can you imagine how Turkish people who know English are carzy when they hear such words like "let`s eat delisious Turkey"!:wink:

LOL!:lol:

That`s why they want to write their counry like Turkiye!:smile:

edwardpiercy 2. December 2008, 22:07

You can have the turkey. I'll stick with the Georgia peaches.




ellinidata 2. December 2008, 22:27

Olgita,
i love both Turkey's :lol:

it is like the Greek Island Lesbos,
tje ladies of the island are called Lesbians...they like it or not!
(my mother in law was born in Lesbos) :lol:

ellinidata 2. December 2008, 22:28

Eddie,
I was wandering do these women ever eat??? (not the kind of Turkey you have in mind ...) :lol:

edwardpiercy 2. December 2008, 22:38

From what I hear most of them are more into meat than poultry.


You know, it's been at least a week since I polluted a post. So I thought to myself, "You know, I think I'll go pollute Angeliki's blog!"

And so I did.

ellinidata 2. December 2008, 22:43

please continue!! :lol:
I missed pollution !
that's what makes posts more interesting(at least to me) :lol:
