Silkie McDonough Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Silkie saunters in dressed so seductively as a ...pilgrim?! So much for seductive! In each hand she has a loaf pan of cornbread steam still rising from it. She sets down the loaf pans opens the satchel that she carries and pulls out several jars of preserves. Each has a label, "Pumpkin Butter", "Apple Cranberry", "Apple Butter" "Raspberry". Happy Tanksgivin' maties! Ray, ken we get a cuttin board, a bread knife, n'sum table knives? She pulls out a large tub of sweet creamy butter. Now, Jame, ya needs t'ab'doin wot I've been doin fer a few years now ...MOOCH!

CrazyCholeBlack Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 "Eyes, look CrazyChole has brought pies and one is pumpkin! Give 'er a period remote (not sure what it's good fer), and CrazyChole kick yer feet up, and have an egg nog wit' rum." "Aye, thank ye Mr. Tar. I'll take tha rum, hold the nog." She drapes her thin legs over the arm of her chair. The cup of rum offered disapears in a single swallow. The bottle is snatched out of Ray's hands as he tries to refill the empty mug. The dark glass vessel is lifted to her lips, the liquer obviously improving, or at least dulling, Jane's otherwise sour mood. "Wot's that Silkie, 300 miles. Well I already tried 200 n' a house too small fer everyone n' that didn't werk, wots a few 'undred more. So who got stuck makin' tha bird round 'ere?"

Naw, I'd takes a day wif out all tha littles quite 'appily" Seeing Eye's reaching after the pumpkin pie again, Jane smacks his hand, shaking her head at him in frustration. "none o that till ye've 'ad some vegetables darn it! oh, Sorry Eye's, it's tha pirate mom in me. 'ere" She slices a little piece out of the pie & passes it to him.

Oderlesseye takes the pie outta CrazyCholeBlacks hand when she looked back at Red Cat Jenny and wit his cutlass slices the pie in even helpings for all.

Jacky Tar Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 "This will n'ver do, ye'll all have no room fer the turkey! I've had galley duty all day, been up t' me elbows stuffin' turkeys, and feedin' turkeys!" Jacky has walked out of the pub galley holdin' a plater wit' a very large stuffed turkey, which he places on a table. He spoons the stuffin' into a bowl, and carves the bird. He returns t' the galley, t' fetch the mashed potatoes (heck I peeled six pounds, today alone.) and gravy. He returns wit' the potatoes, gravy and cranberries. One last trip t' the galley fer the yams, and broccoli casserole. He looks around, "Anyone still hungry?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Cat Jenny Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 Several shouts of Aye! echo around th pub accompanied by the sound of plates being cleared to make room fer seconds.

CrazyCholeBlack Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 "Its over!" Jane exclaims suddenly, nearly falling backwards out of her chair. All eyes in the pub turn to stare at the now happily laughing woman, so different from the grouch that she'd been. Jane's cheeks turn a particularly bright shade of pink as she unsuccessfully attempts to stifle her joy at surviving thanksgiving.

Ransom Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 Since having to leave the Pub Thanksgiving party for a family one, I return to find a table full of leftovers and groaning pyrates holding their full stomachs. Wistfully, I wish I'd been able to join in the fun. Red Cat is back to snoozing, but I notice she has a new necklace and earings. Chole is asleep in her chair, an empty mug dangling from one finger, Jacky sits at the head of the table, sound asleep, but he has a smile on his face. The others are still only half awake, but starting to rouse. Under Eyes chair is a pile of sand and an empty pie plate. The inflatable pilgrim is listing to larboard due to a lack of air, and all that is left of the turkey is a picked-cleaned carcass. There is, however, a bit of pumpkin pie remaining in the dish. I ask Ray for a cup of tea, grab a fork, and stand at the bar eating pie for breakfast, waiting for the others to wake up and start demanding turkey sandwiches. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

CrazyCholeBlack Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Jane is finally running out of steam. Her green eyes are getting droopy and she's obviously having trouble keeping her head up. Overcome with exhaustion she settles her head down next to her plate of pie, one arm curled protectivly around the dessert, the other folded under her head. Sleep finally overcomes Jane, a blissful smile filling her lips as she dreams of 354 days before the next thanksgiving nightmare.

Ransom Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 "Fruitcake? Have ya ever heard of the "hide the fruitcake" game? One person tries ta hide a fruitcake in their friend's house without them noticing. When and if that person finds the cake, he has ta figure out a way to hide it in someone else's house. Fruitcakes been known ta pass around for years, before someone has the decency ta bury it in their backyard."
