Millennials are disrupting Thanksgiving with their tiny turkeys

LOL! See my post #36...
When I was in college many long years ago our fraternity’s cook used to make really great turkey soup from the carcasses of the turkeys we’d eaten. One thing that’s really fun the day, or night, after the main dinner is sitting around and picking delicious morsels off the cold carcass.
My BFF is hosting THIRTY family members at her house, today!
The fact that she has 24 nieces and nephews is a big part of it, LOL! Very prolific family. ;)
I miss my mommy. A d really crisp iceberg lettuce on hawwian rolls
Maybe millenials can’t afford refrigerators.
I remember an article a couple years ago that basically said, Millenials are not any more environmentally conscience or concerns about over indulgence then any other generation before them. It is because they can’t afford anything. They are broke. The ones who do make it big, like Mark Zuckerberg, are not out buying Tiny homes with composting toilets and his bed above his kitchen sink like his broke counterparts are doing to save dough. He still lives in a 20,000+ square foot home with 3 kitchens 10+ bedrooms and 14 bathrooms and a guard house with wall around it just like any other billionaire twice his age does.
I agree! Yum! We need a Smoker Upgrade around here!
Leftovers that aren’t eaten go into the freezer for good eats all year. Don’t forget to boil the carcass for stock throughout the year. Also, save the fat and bone from the ham for the bean pots.
We were so poor growing up our mom had powdered milk in her boobies
Liberals RUIN EVERYTHING!
Our family likes turkey. This year 18 lb. for Thanksgiving. Christmas we do a standing rib roast. Or maybe a grilled mahi-mahi if I can catch one.
Hear hear, don’t forget a couple of pieces of cold, crunchy iceberg lettuce and maybe some thin sliced red onion an that sammich. My favorite anyway.
Hehe, there it is!
Folks used to send me to the turkey farm to pick up the warm brown paper bag with our freshly plucked & desanguinated bird.
There’s a neat invention called a freezer.
I agree on the watermelons. Beau is OBSESSED with growing melons, and to his credit, he’s getting better at it.
But...guess who gets to cut them up? Yep. And I hate every minute of it. I can’t think of a less nutritious, space hogging, water hogging thing to grow. I don’t allow them in MY garden. He plants them in the lower garden with the winter squashes and sweet corn, potatoes and popcorn.
This has been an ongoing ‘conversation’ since the day we met, LOL! And don’t even get me started on the year he grew Spaghetti Squash! THAT was a ‘hill’ too far! ;)
That is 100% true! Hipsters were once Hippies, etc. There’s really nothing new under the Sun. ;)
