Waddle, Waddle , Waddle.

Popping open the top button of her "Easy Pants",and sighing on the first bend of her knees as she lowers her way down to the couch, the modern over-worked mother realizes she never removed the neck OR the giblits from the cavities of the much fussed over bird, they came to devour in much less than an hour.

[Howler]

1. I actually did that LOL!

I was 30 years old and it was the first Thanksgiving dinner I had ever made for my folks.Still got pictures of that damn bird too.

[MorningGlow]

2. Ha! I did that too, several years ago!

Mortifying. But I just slipped them out of the cavity when no one was looking. ;)

Waddling good. Easy Pants also very good. Good on you, overworked mother! :hi:

[Howler]

3. Hey!

I have NEVER seen a cook book that tells a newbe to take the stuff out of the birds butt!:)

[MorningGlow]

5. Good point--they always assume everybody knows the obvious stuff

'Tain't necessarily so. :P

[Howler]

6. I guess they figure

A woman is supposed to know how to cook from birth.
The male equivalent is men are supposed to know how to fix cars from birth.:shrug:

[MorningGlow]

8. That sure doesn't apply to me!

Neither, in fact! :D

On edit: I can spell, though.

[Howler]

11. Me Neither!

I consider the Kitchen "The Final frontier" LOL! "Seeking out strange new life"
Its even got gadgets like the Star Ship Enterprise's bridge.BUT. But....It doesn't come with a crew you can order around. :(
Though Mine has seen crashes,explosions,and plenty of wounds like the Starship enterprise has.:silly:

[Howler]

32. IHAD!

Dude, you should of been here in Howlerville the year I forgot to check the oven for pizza boxes.
I set the oven for the roast and twenty minutes later we were all outside with all the doors and windows open in the house.
Gakking up inhaled pizza boxes.:shrug:

[teenagebambam]

17. Hmph. This man don't know nothin' about cars

but I prepared Thanksgiving dinner for 10 all by myself, including TWO made-from-scratch pies!

[Howler]

18. You Go BOY!!!!!!!1

Alright teenagebambam....Level with me.....Who told you about the bag of ick up the turkeys butt????

HOMEMADE PIES!!!! Dude You Rock!!!

[kimmerspixelated]

14. So true! So true!

And man O man, it's so gross!

[Howler]

15. No Sh&t.

Sticking your hand up anythings butt should give one pause!LOL!

[kimmerspixelated]

19. Snort worthy! n/t

[I Have A Dream]

29. I've only made one turkey myself...

and since I'm a vegetarian, that is the only one I'll ever make, so I have to ask...

Is it really its butt? :wow: If not, what is that cavity?!!

When I still ate meat, I did whatever I could to make it not look like an animal -- skinless, boneless, bloodless, etc. Seeing that bag in the one turkey I made traumatized me! :scared:

[Howler]

33. LOL!

Looks like a Butt to me!

[Kookaburra]

4. You know, I grew up the daughter of a chef,

So I should have known better, but I did the very same thing on my first turkey. Got the neck out, because I saw it, but didn't get the little bag of nastiness out of there and it cooked with the bird. No one knew the difference (except Daddy, and I think it was only because he could read the look of guilt on my face).

[Howler]

7. LOL!

I'm so glad I am not alone.

[LiberalEsto]

9. I am thankful that leggings are back in fashion

along with extra-long t-shirts and tops. They conceal a multitude of sins.

[Kookaburra]

10. That's what I'm wearing today

[kimmerspixelated]

13. Loose black clothing,

It's a must have item!

[Celebration]

12. .............

:rofl:

First turkey, when I was about 25 years old.

I actually think I did this twice!! The second time I felt around for it but couldn't find it until after it was cooked.

Guess who ordered a pre-cooked turkey this Thanksgiving? :silly:

(just for sandwiches)

[Howler]

16. HAHAHAHA!!!!!!

We are no longer ALONE Celebration!!!!!

Ahem. What I wanna Know is why Don't the people in our lives who know how to cook ever tell us about the stuff stuffed up the turkeys butt?????

[japple]

20. Don't feel bad about that. My sister and I were cooking Thanksgiving

dinner the year our mother died and we didn't know about the baggie of inards in the neck cavity, so we cooked 'em with the turkey. She was 52 and I was 51 when this took place. I had cooked chickens and turkeys, but never one large enough to have giblets in the neck. I always cook these tasty bits up for the dog and to add to soup stock. Lady loves chewing on the rubbery bits like gizzard and heart.

From the subject heading of this thread, I thought you were starting another storyline.

[Why Syzygy]

21. I did too

:) That's what I thought :)

[Howler]

22. Japple :)

I bet you would tell a newbie now though!......Right?

Oh.Oh. Did I Accident ly steer this thread away from creative writing into real life? If so pardon me and much apologies.:blush:

[I Have A Dream]

24. I just posted the same thing! I thought that it was the beginning of a story thread.

:)

[I Have A Dream]

23. When I first read this...

I thought that it was the opening of another story thread!

:D

[kimmerspixelated]

25. Cards on the table.

Yes, it was a start of a storyline...but,this thread is WAY better than any dumb ol' story! I couldn't be more pleased...This was fabulous! Thanks, guys!

The universe wants me to start a BETTER story thread...!

[Howler]

28. Alright already!!!! LOL!
