We'll be trying to shake things up this year. We've always done the turkey and traditional sides, but this year my wife says it's going to be a surprise. So I'm curious whats going to be on your turkey day plates / table? Hosting, or going somewhere?

We switched to prime rib a few years ago. I'm pretty sure it's what the pilgrims would have wanted.

Id rather eat a ham. Only turkey i like is wild and breast only. Seems wasteful to only eat the breast so i dont kill them much...

Eight Mile run to start my day, then whatever I want after that I guess.

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

Store bought turkey and home cured ham here, along with the usual sides, and raisin pie. I'm trying to convince my wife to let me roast a beaver and call it roast beast. We always have a family or two for thanksgiving, Easter, and Christmas that don't have anywhere else to go. This year we'll have one family of 4 for sure, and possibly a family of 6 and a family of 5. Our family has 7, so it'll be a full house, 12 kids and the oldest will be 11.

The legs on wild Turkey is impossible to eat almost anyway. Tough as boot leather here in my experiences

A small turkey and a Hormel Cure 81 ham. If you haven't tried one of those hams, you've been cheating yourself! And sweet potato pie. I like it a bit more than pumpkin, but very similar. And no holiday dinner is complete without deviled eggs.


Life ain't supposed to be easy.

I'm jealous, I'll start exercising again after the 1st of the year. When I tell my wife I'm going for a run she says portion control, which I'm terrible at.
