THANKSGIVING ~ 2006
I was in the store today getting a few groceries.... you know... cereal, milk...... that kind of stuff.... No stuffing, cornbread mix, turkey's, etc..... lol,
none of that...A lady ask me, "Well hon, will you be cooking Thanks Giving Dinner...?" lol I said " No Maam', I do not cook big dinners often" Then I felt propelled to tell her about mylast Thanks Giving Dinner~ As I begin to tell her, I of course get all
into my story and people in the aisle was stopping to listen... LOL
My in laws were coming in from Augusta..... I was very excited about fixing the whole Thanks Giving dinner right by myself~ Turkey, Green Bean casserole.... I don't remember what all else, the Turkey is kinda all I remember~ My in laws came
in late the night before. I wrapped up the turkey in tin foil and placed it in the oven for it to slow cook through the night on low. I had gotten me a turkey that didn't require all that extra stuff.... it was already de~boned.... looked to me like just
a big chunk of Turkey meat.... Just perfect~ My mother in law and I were in the kitchen the next morning, I placed it up on the counter, she began to pull back the tin foil...... and then...........................................She was laughing so hard she
was crying... :-**( I had no idea what her problem was!!!! LOL, I looked over at it and it had really swiveled up a lot..... much smaller than when we started...?? And the color of it? EWWW, it looked puny and just not appetizing at all..... I said, "I wonder
what is wrong" As my Mother in law cried, and laughing till her stomach hurt and leaving me to try to figure out what the problem was.... With a dumb founded look on my face, and kinda worried abou ther..LOL...... I said, "Well, it doesn't look the same color
as my Moma's turkey, does it?" I am not laughing... I am confused........ But SHE is still laughing & crying........ when she was able to breath again, she said....."MONICA, IT"S A PORK ROAST!!!!" LOL LOL That was my LAST turkey surprise~ ;-) I do hope
you all have a great Thanks Giving and I also hope you all have a good cook in the kitchen~ :-) We went out to eat that Thanks Giving........ :-)
