BriarRose Kildare Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 Happy Thanksgiving and Many Happy Blessings to All on this Special Day. May family and friends surround you on this day of giving Thanks. And may your the harvest upon your table be bountiful. He who thanks but with the lips Thanks but in part; The full, the true Thanksgiving Comes from the heart. ~J.A. Shedd As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them. ~John Fitzgerald Kennedy Ah! on Thanksgiving day.... When the care-wearied man seeks his mother once more, And the worn matron smiles where the girl smiled before. What moistens the lips and what brightens the eye? What calls back the past, like the rich pumpkin pie? ~John Greenleaf Whittier Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all. The Dimension of Time is only a doorway to open. A Time Traveler I am and a Lover of Delights whatever they may be. There are nights when the wolves are silent and only the moon howls.
Lily Alexander Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 'Twas the night of Thanksgiving, But I just couldn't sleep, I tried counting backwards, I tried counting sheep. The leftovers beckoned - The dark meat and white, But I fought the temptation With all of my might. Tossing and turning with anticipation, The thought of a snack became infatuation. So, I raced to the kitchen, flung open the door, And gazed at the fridge, full of goodies galore. I gobbled up turkey and buttered potatoes, Pickles and carrots, beans and tomatoes. I felt myself swelling so plump and so round, 'Til all of a sudden, I rose off the ground. I crashed through the ceiling, floating into the sky, With a mouthful of pudding and a handful of pie. But, I managed to yell as I soared past the trees.... Happy eating to all - Pass the cranberries, please. May your stuffing be tasty, May your turkey be plump. May your potatoes 'n gravy Have nary a lump, May your yams be delicious May your pies take the prize, May your Thanksgiving dinner Stay off of your thighs. Have a great Thanksgiving all! If you're gonna give me a headache, please bring me an aspirin! http://www.forttaylorpyrates.com/
Ransom Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL! And here is some old advise: "For one that is sick upon a full stomach, take fennel and chew it in thy mouth. Spit out some, and take down some. It is a present remedy. Fairfax Household Book, 17th/18th century ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold... You can do everything right, strictly according to procedure, on the ocean, and it'll still kill you. But if you're a good navigator, a least you'll know where you were when you died.......From The Ship Killer by Justin Scott.

Red-Handed Jill Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 If you're referring to the turkey on the right, don't you mean put him out of our misery?
Graydog Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 An interesting observation on that photo: One turkey, three turkey necks. Why am I sharing my opinion? Because I am a special snowflake who has an opinion of such import that it must be shared and because people really care what I think!
