THANKSGIVING....Want to thank MTStars (sm)

Something is wrong with this picture, but I do not feel like getting out of my PJ's today. Lawnwork and gardening will wait, right? At this point, I would rather be inside than out in the heat and humidity. ...

I am thankful that during these hard times we were wise enough to elect a steady hand at the wheel. I am optimistic that things will get better in the coming year. I will keep our struggling fellow citizens as well as our brilliant young leader in my thoughts as I count my blessings at my bountiful table tomorrow. Blessings to all. ...

I know it's a little early but i'm a planner. What do you usually do at Thanksgiving? This will be new for me as it is now just me and my 10-y/o son. In the past he'd usually go hunting with his dad and I'd cook/bake all day. They'd come home with any "wayward" buddies for dinner. My parents live 4 hours away and I'm not really too keen on just sitting around staring at eachother or the TV (as what happens with any other visit). Any id ...

I know it's a month away but can you all share with me your "normal" plans for Thanksgiving? My parents live too far away so it will be just me and my 11 year old son by ourselves this year. I want to make it special since this will also be his first Thanksgiving without his dad but cooking a huge turkey and the works seems like it will be a waste of food. Suggestions/ideas? ...

Our OKC homeless shelter has an adjunct service to help take care of pets of homeless people. I frequently donate to that. While the homeless people get their Thanksgiving meal, they need people to volunteer taking care of the pets, feeding them, playing with them, etc. I'm not a people person. I will volunteer for this. ...

On Thanksgiving I cooked for my cats, then worked and ran out of work after 4 hours and watched TV and took PTO. We got together the day after and I spent the day with my sister's family. I can't believe how big my great-great-nieces and nephews are getting. The oldest is 4, the youngest is just under 7 months. I have a hard time believing how grown up everybody is and realizing we (my sister and I) aren't even the old ones anymore, the kids ...

That's Helen of Margaret and Helen fame. Somewhat political at times.========================================== Thanksgiving Letter to the Family 2009 Dear Family,This year I am thankful to have you as my family rather than a normal American family. I say that because Sarah Palin is fond of talking about her family being a normal American family.Last time I checked everyone in my family knows where Africa is on a globe. Everyone goes to college after high school. We’ve had no teen p ...

I know we often disagree on this board, but I hope that everyone -- liberal, conservative or in between -- has a wonderful, safe and happy Thanksgiving. If you're spending it with your relatives (as you might do every year and sometimes dread doing so), try to look at them in a new light and be grateful you still have your family. If you have no family, cook a meal and invite a neighbor or someone who also has no family to share your meal with you. It might wind up being your best Tha ...

The holidays can be very stressful and depressing. God bless those who don't have a warm meal today. God bless those who don't have a place to stay. God bless those who don't have family to be with today. God bless people who are depressed and stressed out because today isn't turning out they way they planned. It is my prayer that all who read this can spread this message of love and peace so no one feels alone or bad today. Today, I am th ...

Seems only right we should offer thanks on this board of faith. I am thankful to those in the invisible realms that watch after us and guide us throughout our lives. ...

Do you have a dish you serve that is traditional for your family but not your typical run-of-the-mill Thanksgiving fare? Looking forward to next Thursday. ...

I think we should all call a truce today and be thankful that we have the right in this country to openly gripe and complain like we do. In a lot of places we would all be in prison by now. LOL. Enjoy the day everyone. ...

Going to call it a night--took 3 tries to correctly spell "Thanksgiving." : p I hope everyone has a terrific Thanksgiving Day. ...

All these recipes sound great - but I can't eat them. I have to (want to) get my weight down - haven't baked anything since July, food diary, all that jazz. So now the holidays are rolling around - I went and got a small turkey, brussel sprouts (I love brussel sprouts), one sweet potato, an avocado, celery, I already have kale in the house. Also nonfat yogurt (yes, I took the plunge from lowfat to nonfat yogurt and skim milk from 2%). Organic "only peanuts" peanut butter. Oliv ...

Regardless on what side of the fence we sit politically, I hope all of you have a very peaceful and blessed Thanksgiving holiday. ...

I've been trying to follow a low carb lifestyle and I'm losing weight. I'm not being fanatical about it or anything but I don't want to completely blow what I have accomplished over the past couple of months. Any yummy low carb alternatives to the traditional Thanksgiving recipes? ...

DON'T TALK POLITICS TOMORROW! :-) ...

it may not seem like it all the time, but we all have something to be thankful for, even in the worst of times. Wishing you all a happy and carefree Thanksgiving day. ...

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. ...It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. ... It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.–Melody Beattie ...

I can see that people in the medical field are necessary, but I think retail people should not be forced to work on Thanksgiving to increase the big store profits. Years ago, we had a huge conflict here and eventually voted on a city ordinance allowing stores to remain open on Sunday. At that time, I thought it was a good idea because I had to work Saturdays and needed the time to take care of business. I think this camping outside of the stores and people actually getting hu ...

I may not have everything I want but I am still Blessed :-) ...

What's your worst Thanksgiving Day/Dinner mishap? Besides forgetting the cranberry sauce. ...

tradition on this program. I have to tell you, the holidays anymore, I am just overwhelmed with so many different emotions. "The story of the Pilgrims begins in the early part of the seventeenth century ... The Church of England under King James I was persecuting anyone and everyone who did not recognize its absolute civil and spiritual authority. Those who challenged ecclesiastical authority and those who believed strongly in freedom of worship were hunted down, imprisoned, and sometimes ex ...

Lilly Friedman doesn’t remember the last name of the woman who designed and sewed the wedding gown she wore when she walked down the aisle over 60 years ago. But the grandmother of seven does recall that when she first told her fiancé Ludwig that she had always dreamed of being married in a white gown he realized he had his work cut out for him.For the tall, lanky 21-year-old who had survived hunger, disease and torture this was a different kind of challenge. How was he ever going t ...
