24674. robertjayb - 11/27/2008 7:53:19 PM Revolution in the jayb thanksgiving kitchen: the turkey is being roasted upsidedown. I'm dubious but hesitant to comment lest I be invited to take over. 24675. arkymalarky - 11/27/2008 8:00:30 PM Smart. I'm at inlaws and away from kitchen. Wouldn't want to ruin my reputation. Happy Thanksgiving! 24676. wonkers2 - 11/28/2008 12:00:02 AM Happy Thanksgiving everybody! 24677. magoseph - 11/28/2008 1:33:24 AM We feasted on avocados, cranberries, and artichoke hearts salad--that was all and plenty for us old folks. 24678. magoseph - 11/28/2008 1:38:19 AM
The cranberries were sent to us and looked even better than in this picture.
24679. magoseph - 11/28/2008 8:38:36 PM At ten last night, a neighbor called us and asked if we had a turkey dinner—we happily told the couple about our fare for the day. Ten minutes later, the man came over, rang, and gave me a big brown bag—-Guess what we found in it? 24680. wonkers2 - 11/28/2008 11:03:47 PM A live turkey? 24681. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 11/28/2008 11:50:12 PM Was the bag on fire? 24682. magoseph - 11/29/2008 12:47:51 AM The bag contained six thick slices of cooked butterball turkey, a dish of glazed yams, another of walnut salad, twelve home baked rolls, two pies--one apple and the other pumpkin, a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon and what I liked the most, a carton full of fancy appetizers. This gift was because we gave them a good deal on a small piece of property adjoining the one we sold them in 2005 and because we did this, they were able to build the patio they always dreamed about, so they told us. We still can’t get over this gesture because there is nothing we could have done with the strip of land we practically gave away to them. 24683. Ms. No - 11/29/2008 2:02:33 AM Hope everyone had a good holiday --- we're celebrating a day late due to schedules.
Not to cast a pall, but has anyone heard anything from Marjoribanks? 24684. anomie - 11/29/2008 11:59:58 AM Mago... Trading land for food, now THAT's thanksgiving! 24685. magoseph - 11/29/2008 4:56:03 PM Ha ha, that's clever, Anomie.
MS. NO, here is Marj:

24686. judithathome - 11/29/2008 9:09:37 PM We're going to a matinee play this afternoon and then out to dinner with 2 other couples. It's called "The Children's Holiday Scientology Pageant" or something like that and is NOT about Scientology, more's the pity. 24687. jexster - 11/29/2008 9:42:59 PM I miss Concerned 24688. arkymalarky - 11/29/2008 10:09:09 PM I thought he'd handle losing better than that. 24689. jexster - 11/29/2008 10:22:50 PM Need we remind you Arky.you also thought he'd vote for Obama
But yeah I thought for sure he'd be here with the story that the Supreme Court has scheduled a 12/5 conference re: appeals of dist ct decisions throwing out two crackpot citizenship suits. I guess his crush on Piglin was more serious than I had thought...
Well unlucky in life and love..been there..I guess I'll just have to soldier on with a stiff upper lip...be satisfied with Wonkers..sigh 24690. judithathome - 11/30/2008 3:35:27 AM Well, the play WAS about Scientology and starred children, who no doubt had not a clue about the subject...one kid played Tom Cruise and had sock puppets on each hand: one for his wife and the other for his daughter.
It was hysterical and afterward, we told each kid what a stellar job they'd done.
Then the six of us met up with 5 other friends and family for dinner at our favorite Italian place...great day and great evening!
