The Guild - The Wonders of the Fried Turkey

Don't forget the uplifting dismissal of Tiny Tommy Daschle. It just keeps getting better and better doesn't it?

[Timeout]

Oh, never mind! I figured it out. They have another "Pecan Pie" recipe on the website and I just compared it to my Word document. It's a match! Now at least I know my Word recipe is the one I like.

Silly, I guess, but I hate losing a tried and true recipe.

I guess I'll write Martha and apologize.

[Timeout]

Oh my! How could I forget Daschle! God bless Daschle.

Welcome home! Have you checked out BWB's link in post #74? LOL, you've probably already seen it but when you get there check out the link in post #76 for the infamous pic of Dick Cheney.

Yeah, W is having a great time in Crawford, showing King Carlos the Ranch..

They came for lunch and it was billed as a "private visit"...Look how thin Laura is getting..

'12-14 pound turkey is the maximum size bird that can be successfully deep-fried.'

BS, always do 18+. Always good.

'some recipe's for HOME MADE injection mixes?'

1 bottle cheap chardonnay
2 sticks butter
Cajun seasoning
or Lawrys season salt
powdered garlic
cayenne pepper

Imagine. The King & Queen dropping by for lunch.
I hope Laura had a casserole in the freezer.

That would be something to learn Laura does the cooking for her guests! It's funny how some people get all puffed up by their "position," no matter how really insignificant it is (I'm thinking of the liberal, incompetent president and "first lady" of Mr. M's little state college, who have a rather imperious air), while others who would have the right to think much of themselves, e.g., the Bushes, show so much more class, humility and dignity than that.

Conservative actress Angie Harmon shares her Thanksgiving plans:

"I'm from Texas, so I like to make foods for Thanksgiving that are not typical to the north. My two favorites are sweet potatoes covered with marshmallows and broccoli cheese casserole. Texans eat so much during the holidays that it's a ritual for us to make sure our winter clothes are ordered a size larger than what we wear during the fall." (Page Six)

that it's a ritual for us to make sure our winter clothes are ordered a size larger than what we wear during the fall."

This doesn't happen only in Texas, Angie. The rest of us just aren't willing to admit it.

I remember before W was president - there was an article about Cheney conferring with W about the VP slot- and it said that it was just the three of them on the ranch and that Laura made a plate of sandwiches for their lunch.

However, she claims she is not a great cook and has stated that she no longer has to cook the family turkey for which the family is very grateful.

It seems like the whole country (well most of us) is in a much more joyful mood this holiday season-travel is way up and folks are just more optimistic, despite the MSM telling us we are all upset about the way the country is going etc.

Our son is home for the Holiday and he had us on the floor in stitches last night recounting how he met a "depressed Liberal" in Vegas, literally drowning his sorrows in booze trying to get over the election. He said he was authentically depressed and blamed Kerry for the loss and insisted that the country likes the Democratic message but Kerry was the wrong messenger.

We have so many things to be greatful for this year. I'd have loved to hear your boychild's rendition of the drunken liberal's whine.

Thanks for your friendship.

[Iowa Granny]

Happy Turkey day to you & Pam, too, JL!

Thanks for those great links.

W ate leftovers from the lunch yesterday...pretty cool leftovers though...lol...and the twins turned 23 today so there was cake too.lINK

" family worked on leftovers from Wednesday's luncheon meeting with Spain's King Carlos and Queen Sofia. That meal had a Thanksgiving theme, with free-range turkey and gravy, mashed sweet potatoes, bass caught at the ranch, stuffing, pan-roasted vegetables, pecan and pumpkin pies with ice cream. There was cake Thursday for the twins' birthdays.
