Quote from: DirkPiggler on Nov 27, 2024, 07:54 AMThe only time in my life I ever had oyster dressing was the year we went to New Orleans and had our meal at Tujague's.  It was incredible.  I wouldn't dare chance having either side of our family attempt it at home. 

Agree. If I'm going to have trouble seeing, I'd rather it be from the booze versus botulism.

I'll be in my typical Thanksgiving rotation tomorrow.

1. Thanksgiving
2. Nap
3. Cold turkey sandwich
4. Nap
5. Full leftover plate







#3 is my favorite part of Thanksgiving.

Plans change...for the worse.

Son woke up puking his guts out at like 0130 this morning and puked for like an hour straight and had horrible stomach pain.  Ended up in the ER and two IV's and a bunch of nausea meds later felt some better.  Back home now but that killed our plans to go up to Arkansas for Thanksgiving.  Now we are left with what to eat at our place since we didn't prepare anything.  Wife is sending me out to Central Market to 'Get Stuff' at noon the day before Thanksgiving... 

Pray for me
Pray for my soul
If I die in battle, tell my kid I loved him.
If I don't post again, know a white, middle aged Southlake Karen ended me.

You'll be nothing but a spot on her Lulu Lemon yoga pants or her OC or Golden Goose sneakers.

Just stopped at Wal Mart store #1 in Rogers.  Noon on the day before Thanksgiving.  The place is a zoo and more of a freak show than normal.  This store and the other one in town on Pleasant Grove could not be more different.

When did it become acceptable to go to walmart in your pajamas and bring your dog?

Haven't been in awhile but the Walmart on Joyce in Fayetteville is always the ultimate freak show. Total white trash circus, morbidly obese people with their stomachs hanging out of tube tops. You don't even realize these people exist until you step foot in that place.

Add in homeless people living in the vestibule and you have the Walmarks on East McCain in NLR.
irritatingly incompetent & infuriatingly unhelpful

Damn right.  Stump break Karen in the produce aisle, and make her buy your stuff for ya.

I've noticed ever since the pandemic that this has been normal. I abhor going to Walmart for fear of encountering these types of folks.

I was at the Walmart on MLK by the interstate a few months ago and this redneck family (probably from Stilwell, OK or something) brought their dog in and he took a dump in the auto section. I was looking for car parts for my father-in-law. A couple of teenagers from the family were just giggling like it was funny and not doing anything to clean it up.

It was crazy, got there and tons on open spots.  Wife had a list that had me going all over and to the meat and deli counters.  Was a breeze.  Was like one number wait at both counters.  Got some steaks, a roast and some cooked turkey and ham and some sides.  So pot roast and turkey and ham and sides tomorrow and then steaks Friday.  Not bad.  When I left though, it was a madhouse with a shitload if cars waiting for spots and stuff.  Lots of frazzled looking hot moms though.

Don't forget the occasional gunfire in the parking lot. That WalMart is less that a mile from my office and I bet I don't go in there more than once or twice a year and never at night. 
Oak Grove in the house.

Got the turkey injected, sweet potato casserole minus the topping, and green bean casserole minus the French onions mixed in already done.

Two Negronis in and about to make the crown bread and sausage/celery/onion mix for the dressing and the Texass Pecan Pie sans syrup per Max Miller and Tasting History.

You must've went to catholic. Heard the word vestibule all the time going to school there and probably the first time since 😂

Except I 86'd the Rosemary. Family nor I am a fan, too strong

Also going to smoke a pork tenderloin stuffed with cream cheese, goat cheese, roasted red pepper, garlic, and thyme. I don't know how that'll turn out.

Mom's making BlackBerry cobbler, pecan pie, chocolate pie.

Rest is sweet potato casserole, mashed potatoes, green beans, rolls, giblet gravy, dressing (not stuffing) and probably couple of things I'm forgetting.

Buried my younger brother Monday. Some folks are bringing who knows what kind food to my Dad's. Whatever it is, we will eat it.
