I'm Thankful For The ONT

Happy Thanksgiving Horde! Hopefully all of you had an enjoyable day and are browsing the ONT in a tryptophan stupor. Does anyone have any good Thanksgiving stories to relate? We'd love to hear them. We are not liberals, so there will be no discussion of political subjects on the Thanksgving OP (You can talk about politics in the comments if you want, I just won't be writing about politics). Here at Casa de Weirddave, we had a traditional dinner with all the fixins:

Sometimes life isn't fair. Jesus is the light of the world, and he dined with sinners and prostitutes, yet when I do the same thing I'm “making Thanksgiving awkward”. People ask WWJD, but I don't really think they mean it.

So what's your favorite part of the bird? Do you like legs? Wings? White meat? Dark meat?

Anyone have any favorite recipes they'd like to share? And where do you stand on the great cranberry vs canberry sauce debate? I'm actually a heathen who prefers canberry sauce, and my late night Thanksgiving snack is a sandwich with white bread, canberry sauce and turkey.

OK, design your Turkey Day dinner. I can't decide if I want to get rid of the sweet potatoes or the Fed. That's a toughie..

I love community notes. Peta can suck it.

Thanksgiving is behind us, so here's a money saving trip for Christmas!

Thanksgiving humor

That's about all I got, I'm feeling overstuffed and sleepy myself. I want to offer my sincere thanks for you, gentle morons. I'd rather spend time with the horde than with the finest people on the planet. You make this community something special, both IRL and here in the gray boxes. Thank you for being a constant source of humor, knowledge support and, yes, love. My world would be much poorer without y'all.

Tonight's ONT has been brought to you by Joe Biden:

The great neighbors invited me to their meal today. I made dad's fruit salad and brought over. They make sweet taters just sliced and baked or possibly fried in very little butter so I don't skip em at their meal.

🚨#BREAKING: Mysterious lights have been reported over Capitol Hill causes UFO panic in DC

Watch as an apparent UFO was sighting was spotted hovering above Capitol Hill this week, sparking concerns that extraterrestrials might be plotting a coup. The viral snapshot and video show four bright lights eerily positioned just a few feet above the Statue of Freedom atop the Capitol dome. The footage was reportedly captured by Dennis Diggins, a US Air Force veteran and licensed tour guide. The sighting quickly caused a stir on social media, fueling speculation, especially since it comes just weeks after a congressional hearing on alleged secret government programs involving “alien” spacecraft.

According to my family and guests I have not lost my ability to cook. Rave compliments. Best ever they said. That makes me happy and grateful. Unfortunately, I lost my sense of taste mid-August and couldn't taste much.

Oh, and I zested off the tip of pinky and it may have gone into the cranberry sauce, but no one commented. So that was good.

34 I made a somewhat traditional cranberry ice (basically a syrup sherbet) from an old (1947) refrigerator manual that was quite nice.

I also made a cranberry chutney that was basically cranberries and hot peppers chopped together. This was great with brisket and with turkey as well as on biscuits.

Cranberry Chutney (Vanaja Rao)

1 pkg. fresh cranberries; 10 red or green chilies; 1tsp. salt; 1tsp. cumin; 1 tsp. mustard; 1 1/2tsp. turmeric; oil

In hot oil, pop mustard and add chilies. Cook the chilies and remove them; add washed and drained cranberries and cook until cranberries have popped. Add all the other ingredients. First grind chilies and then add the other ingredients.

I only used four red chili peppers with a 12-oz package of cranberries. And I just chopped the chilis, adding them at the end so as to get the right heat for a Thanksgiving meal.

35 One thing I don't see anywhere at thanksgiving but my mom always made was egg noodles. I think it had turkey drippings and some of the gizzard stuff and typical turkey seasonings. It must have just been a midwest thing. It was really good and I'd covered it with the dressing.

Anyone ever have egg noodles at thanksgiving?

55 Disaster was narrowly avoided today. I spatchcocked my turkey, then cooked it breast down. Target cooking duration was five hours.
At the 3 1/2 hour mark I checked the bird, and found the legs and thighs were done. When I gave them the joint wiggle test, they fell off. Breast was still under cooked.
I pulled the hindquarters off and put them in the refrigerator. Rolled the bird over to breast up and cooked for another 1 1/2 hours.
I think this was due to cooking breast down and having a completely thawed turkey, with zero ice in the interior when I started prep work.

Lets see, my must haves if I'm cooking the meal: mashed taters and homemade gravy, sage dressing, (one year I forgot to buy celery so dad had to wait a day or 2 for the big meal) cranberries in some form, green beans, and either squash or baked sweet taters and some kind of pie. Either ham or turkey, either makes fine gravy for the mashed potatoes.

So after I declared that I would make my then girlfriend my wife back in 89, We were invited to a trove of family gatherings (on my future wife's side) especially that November where I was to attend with future wife in tow no less than 3 Thanksgiving dinners.
My Parents and Family...
Her Grandparents and some family and then what would be the Grand Scrutiny...her Aunt Bonnie and her family.
She was a Gourmet cook and laid out an absolute stellar 4 star dinner of which I was compelled to eat (though my stomach was near max) I was served a dish of thin sliced potato's which my wife's cousin called "Dead Rats in Butter" After a taste I exclaimed to my future wife's uncle.." "These are the BEST potato's I have ever had!!"

To which he exclaimed... "Richard, even Dead Rats would taste good with this much butter."

Hence the family name.

I called mine BBQ sauce, but I guess it could be a chutney.

12 oz fresh cranberries
½ cup water
1/2 onion diced
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
2 Tablespoons dijon mustard
2 cloves garlic minced
2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce diced
Splashes of Worstershire and soy sauce optional.

Throw everything into a pot and bring to boil. Reduce heat and cook 20 minutesish. Optional throw into blender for smoother sauce. I didn't do that.

104 A quiet Thanksgiving here at the secret bunker deep in the forests of Westsylvania. As usual, it was just me and my Dad, so we spent the afternoon watching 3 Stooges films, then the WKRP turkey drop episode, then dinner, then one of our favorite cinematic classics, Tarantula, starring Mara Corday's breasts and John Agar.

We don't have any other family, so holidays are always two-person affairs, and that's just fine with me. More than anything I'm thankful to have been 29 for so long and still have a parent around to make fun of movies with.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

Second, Thanksgiving was not as good as it could have been. DILIT was not able to make it because she had to close at the pet day care. We did get to spend time with the dog, however.

Bacon-wrapped turkey (recipe on Pioneer Woman), a Texas spiced roast beef, cornbread, cucumber-tomato salad, cranberries (not out of a can), spaetzle with gouda and bacon, German potato salad (with bacon), some corn, salad, various drinks, and a pumpkin pie. And, next year, something for the dog. (I evidently cooked with a lot of things dogs shouldn't eat. But I did feed her a piece of bacon or two.)

Confession, the last few years, when I do the big holiday dinner for relatives, I cheat. You know those packages of refrigerated mashed potatoes? Bob Evans is one of the brands.

I don't know about relish (probably grated orange and stuff in there) but cranberries are easy: 1 bag cranberries, 1 cup water, 1 cup sugar. Put water in pot and start heating, add sugar and stir until dissolved, add cranberries and get it back to a boil. When you can her the cranberries popping, go check on it. Once the thing looks a bit of a mess, take it off the heat and let it start to cool. When it's a little cool, put it in a glass container and put it in the fridge to gel. Unless you can't boil water, you can do cranberries easy. (And adding orange zest isn't much harder, though zesting an orange might be problematic for some.)

More foolproof way is to halve that amount of water and sugar and follow the same direction...once it seems cooked, taste it and see if it's too sour/too sweet/just right and/or too loose or too tight. Fix then.

Aka, it's hard to fix a too sweet, too loose cranberry sauce...but easy to sweeten or loosen.

I turned this job over to the kid this year - we did 3 bags of cranberries, 1/2 cup apple cider, 5 diced pears, 2 diced granny smiths, and 1 1/4 cup sugar. She started with 1/2 cup sugar.

I'm sensing that maybe there wasn't sufficient gratitude expressed at your domicile?

The solution to persons who are critical of your cooking is to make them cook instead.

My Dad did that the first year his second wife's family joined us for some holiday. His new mother-in-law asked him to carve the turkey, and then criticized how he did it, so he handed her the knife and walked out of the kitchen.

He never carved the turkey any year following that either.

240 England 1993 - USA Base receives phone call for the Captain from a local dowager. She wants to invite some US soldiers to dinner for the coming festivity. The Captain is delighted and assures her that the soldiers would be very happy to have a home-cooked meal.
Now the lady, after some beating around the bush eventually mentions that she doesn't want any of those people "You know, the ones with strange food restrictions and rituals". The Captain is momentarily taken aback but then assures her it will be as asked.
On the evening of the feast the doorbell rings and the lady goes to open the door herself. In front of her, in smart Marine Dress Uniform, are 3 enormous grinning Black officers. After a moment of hesitation she stammers, "There must be some mistake?"
'No, Madam,' said the first officer, 'Captain Goldberg never makes mistakes.'

I'm not an optimist, and I don't have any trust at all in our "fellow countrymen", or a system of voting that can be so easily rigged. But you were right to stick to what you believe to be true and to keep saying it. Thank you for that. You were like the guy up ahead in the dark saying, Come on, you can do it!

All these fake "Christian-based" religious sects....methodists, universalists, protestants,

and aglicans, too, I guess.

274 Anglican? As in... British/EU citizen?

Tell her to F.O., she's got bigger worries at home.

275 So she tells me she's a "valued and respected anglican priest." LOL.

Tell her she's a priestess unless she's got balls. Also Anglicans, unless Africans in Africa, are weird, misguided, perverted fools, starting with ordaining women clergy.

279 Speculation that Trump will pardon Hunter Biden...

280 For the lovers/haters of green bean casserole: make 2 kinds of green beans. The Pioneer Woman Cooks has "Green Beans with Tomatoes" - and bacon, onion and a little cayenne. You can do it in a slow cooker so it doesn't take oven space. Be sure to cook it long enough. Good left over.

That sounds yum. Normally I would make some sort of sauteed green beans. This year I made green bean casserole from scratch (no Campbell's soup). Had a meal deal coupon from H.E.B.; fresh mushrooms and the fried onions were free with purchase of fresh green beans. It was quite good.

Can someone tell me what the fuckingfuck an "anglican priest" is?

Some bitch in the youtube comments doesn't like that I laughed at her idiotic comparisons of hitler and stalin to our favorite President.

So she tells me she's a "valued and respected anglican priest." LOL.

The Anglican Church gave up on Christianity a long time ago. Just a pagan cult now. Sad. 'Carols from Kings' is a beautiful listen. Still is of course, they've just rejected the message they sing about now.

286 >>Speculation that Trump will pardon Hunter Biden...

There has been ass loads of speculation.

Who is technically President for the next couple of months?

287 Thank you Weird Dave!

The turkey wishbone cartoon was very 'Far Side.'

I hope everyone had an amazing Thanksgiving.

As we are on the verge of WW3... the question is who is actually the President... or at least, who is calling the shot.

Posted by: Romeo13 at November 29, 2024 12:44 AM (QAkQ3)

289 I like the classic green bean casserole, but nobody else in my circle does.

Also, those stoopid french-fried onions are spendy!!

Can be made at home, if one is patient enough:

Slice onion *very* thinly. Coat with seasoned flour. (pepper, garlic powder, whatever else you like) then coat with beer batter. Deep fry at 375 until golden & dry on paper towels.

Make extra, you'll be munching them as soon as they're cooled enough!

tastes yummy

If I had turkey, mashed spuds, and stuffing on my plate, possibly some baked beans, then I don't need green stuff. Bacon swamps everything with its flavor so no, I want to taste the other food.
I'll concede that canned French cut green beans with a little olive oil and vinegar are delicious. Can add sliced raw onion and even garlic.

293 I like to snap green beans into a saucepan with browned, chopped up bacon. (don't drain the bacon fat) Add pearl onions and chicken broth, simmer until beans are tender.

I'll never forget this. Over a decade ago, I was driving through Harvard Square, Cambridge on an early Sunday morning. I pass by one of the fake churches, universalist or something, and I see this dorky professor looking guy walking up to the "church's" front doors with a Dunkin Donuts coffee in one hand, and a Boston Sunday Globe under his other arm.

That's his "church," and he was carrying in with him his "bible."
