Save Tom Turkey!!

[The_Lady_Snow]

It seems every year Christmas time gets closer and closer and the stores can't even wait for Halloween to be over before they are pulling out the Nativity sets and Christmas trees..

Our childhood friend Tom is almost forgotten.... How will you spend your Day of Thanks? Stop in here and speak up for Tom or just wish your fellow Planeteer a Happy Spanksgiving!!!

poooor Tom, PARDON HIM!!!

[UofMfan]

I shall enjoy Tom in the company of good friends and spirits.

[Corkey]

Pardon me Tom, I shall eat you with gusto.
You must be purchased first, so you have a bit of a reprieve.

[Martina]

Sorry, he is doomed. Or rather destined for a higher calling. i will be with Ma'am and Sir and a bunch of their friends.

I love Tom turkey day. This year I get to celebrate Southern style and I can't wait. I have so much to be thankful for this year, and I will definitely be counting my blessings and giving thanks.

[Soft*Silver]

Oh Tom..I have NO remorse over picking you, stalking you, cooking you and yes, eating you....yummmmm....You had a good year on the range...now its MY day!

[Gemme]

I don't know yet. Maybe vegging out with friends. Maybe a movie. Definitely Tom.

[Hollylane]

I think this is the first time I'll miss stuffing Tom. Do not, I repeat do not, okay...do your best, to not take this out of context. :|

I hope all of you get to spend the Holiday of Thankfulness with those you love, and those who love you.

Tom Turkey gets a pardon from me this year. I will be sleeping all day in preparation for a VERY long 12 hour shift doing traffic and crowd control for midnight madness......otherwise known as BLACK FRIDAY!

I have to do that midnight madness, too. Just in another state. My internal clock will be so screwed up. I am not looking forward to it or the hours I must work. There is no more fun in having a Black Friday event, if employees have to be there on the holiday night to prepare for it. My dessert will be a 5 hour energy shot when my eyes start to close.

I am SOOOO glad that I no longer work the kind of retail that would put me in this position again (or having to get up at 3am to begin my Black Friday shift).

I hope it goes fast for you two!

i have no affinity for Tom the Turkey!!!

Much to my relief, I will be at work, which means I will be saved from eating turkey.

I am sad, no stuffing.

Maybe later when I have more money, I'll make a turkey and stuffing.

I wanna try turducken.

[Amber2010]

Poor Tom lol, I will be cooking Thanksgiving this year for my family, I have gotten out of it the last couple of years but the kids want mom to do it sooooooo..
Our tradition is also to get up a 4am the next morning for "Black Friday" .. Yes my family is a little on the nutty side but boy do we have a great time! I really do look forward to them all coming to my house this year. :)

The year I rode past a truck with all the Toms in cages literally piled one on top of the other within the cages, I said no more Tom.

Last year though, I did have a free range, no hormone turkey.

This year, no meat for me (vegan diet).

On Thanksgiving I am going out with my partner's son and my mother to a buffet, where I will eat all of the sides. tantalizingfemme is away at her mom's since her mom is having surgery coming up.

If you have a frozen turkey, it needs to be out of the freezer and into the fridge today. If not you will be having turkey on Friday...

Save Tom Turkey! So that Tom won't be an orphan on Thanksgiving Day, go buy one or two turkeys and cook him up! Tom is happy and willing to give his life for our enjoyment, he considers it his duty and a service to our great nation. Don't disappoint him, help Tom wish us all a HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

What is everyone doing for Tom Turkey Day?

Any plans?

Do you watch the Macy's Parade?



Do you wonder why poor Tom is pushed aside for Santa and all that is commercial fuckery?

Do you even care?

I'm going to spend Thanksgiving without my kids for the first time ever as they'll be with their dad and his family. I could spend it with my mom, but I'd rather not. I don't know what I'm going to do, just chill at home which is fine.

[Martina]

I am going to Lake Tahoe. Wahoooo. Can't wait.

Turkey day at my mom's house again for me and Bully. Me and mom cook and my kids and daughter in law come to eat. The day after is my BIRTHDAY so we will celebrate it on turkey day cause i gotta work on my bd. That's ok though cause i put up a sign in sheet at work, that announces my birthday and for everyone to sign up for what they will bring for food. Last time i looked it was getting quite full. Oh and at the bottom i said "Don't forget a present". No one knows i'm the one that started it. So, it's a good plan.

And yes it will be the first of at least 3 birthday celebrations for Belle (Thursday- family, Friday- with co-workers, Monday- with me). I can't wait!

I love thanksgiving! First I shall soak TWO Mr Tom's overnight in a special brine of salt, OJ, fresh rosemary and garlic. I will then rub you both down with ghee and a nice herbal rub. I shall stuff you with cornbread and cranberries then place your legs in twine bondage for a slow basted baking.

Joining you will be some special smashed taters, Non-GMO corn on the cob or some other yummy veggies.

When we are done picking at your bones I shall boil you to make soup for xmas! Lucky you

Tom might be cooked at our house this year.
We usually go to Mare's sister's house, but since Mare might have to work early and isn't in the mood to travel, it seems like I'll be doing the Tom cooking.

That's it!

I hated it too as a kid. Now I love it, but only one slice. Or may one and a half. Which really doesn't make sense to me, because I am really into it, but it grosses me out after a piece. Dunno.

I am psyched because my mom is willing to make her sweet potatoes, her homemade stuffing, and her homemade cherry pie! We are having it at TF's house. TF is going to make cornish game hens for her son and my mom (the mass production of turkeys really disturbs both of us), and she and I will have fish/shellfish. Of course, she will have side dishes too. Should be good!

What is everyone else doing?

I hated it too as a kid. Now I love it, but only one slice. Or may one and a half. Which really doesn't make sense to me, because I am really into it, but it grosses me out after a piece. Dunno.

I am psyched because my mom is willing to make her sweet potatoes, her homemade stuffing, and her homemade cherry pie! We are having it at TF's house. TF is going to make cornish game hens for her son and my mom (the mass production of turkeys really disturbs both of us), and she and I will have fish/shellfish. Of course, she will have side dishes too. Should be good!

What is everyone else doing?


We're heading to the land of crazy, oppression, racism and ROLL TIDE , aka ALABAMA.. My ma is already driving me crazy with the buying of the food. She's been looking at turkeys for 48 hours now and has told me she has a schedule she has to keep.

I'm not really sure what it is cause Zumba is closed for the holidays. Originally she and Dad wanted to take us all to the chow hall. I was like um no.


Light a candle I may have to sedate her.

We're looking forward to the Road Trip, we haven't been on one in a while..

Hearing your story and plans made me smile. I remember early on (or at least it seemed early on), you and Grant were traveling a lot and shared your adventures with us.

My mom always got the free turkey from Acme (grocery store). If you spend so much in a month you get a free turkey!

Oh, and Good Luck! :praying:

People are upset with this video. I don't get it. I think it's cute! Maybe cause they are playing with the food? hmmm..


Upset how? I invested five minutes in that rather terrible video. *needs to know* :)

[skeeter_01]

I work every T'giving weekend..both Thurs and Fri are counted as holidays so that's BIG money vanna!! We're having a potluck...i'm taking my "world famous" stuffing...

PECAN-SAUSAGE STUFFNG

(AKA...stuffing that tastes so DAMN good, it’s gonna make ya jump up and slap your mama!!)

about 2 loaves of "cheap white bread"
2 rolls of bob evans SAGE sausage
1/2 c. of chopped onions
1/2 c. of chopped celery
5-6 cans of chicken broth
2 eggs, beaten
1 c. toasted pecans pieces
sage, salt, pepper to taste

toast all of the bread and then tear it up in to your biggest mixing bowl..(i have a HUGEEEE one especially for my stuffing).

in a little butter, begin to sautee the onions and celery..toss a pinch of salt and pepper on them..when the onions are translucent..dump them in with the toast cubes..throw the beaten eggs in at this time too..give'r a good stir..

partially fry the sausage...i do it almost 1/2 way..i fry it for about 3 minutes continually breaking the lump of sausage up in to small pieces..dump that into the toast..grease and all (HEY!!..who said this was low fat?)..add toasted pecans*

start with first can of broth..begin adding it to the mixture..mixing as you go...you want the consistancy to be pretty wet but not soggy..add your seasonings...salt, pepper and sage..i PERSONALLY like a LOT of sage!!...YUMMY!!..

*toasted pecans

heat stove to medium..put pecans in a single layer in the bottom of a non-stick frypan...*i toss a pinch of salt and sage on them*...in about 20-30 seconds..the nuts will begin to smoke...start stirring them and keep doing this for about another minute (trying to keep them in a single layer at all times)do NOT let them burn!!
dump them on a paper towel to cool until you are ready to add them to the stuffing.

i have used this stuffing to stuff the bird (FDA warnings be DAMNED!!) and what ever is left..i put in a greased dish..when baking in the dish..i cover it with foil for the first hour and then remove the foil for about 20-25 mins..

Pete has to work on Wednesday and on Friday and I am actively unwilling to cook for company on Thursday so

We are going out to dinner with Pete's mother and her best friend on Thanksgiving.

I will make a streamlined meal on Saturday, including a disposable pan and only the side dishes we truly want.

Pete ordered a small fresh turkey from a local farm, yum yum, and

I don't know when I will shop for the other ingredients we need. :|

Snow-- I love stories about your ma. Seriously, I think you should write a book or come to Hawaii for Thanksgiving. :hangloose:

There is something about mothers and menus and schedules. Mine has been on about the menu and the shopping and such for 3 days and we went shopping Saturday wtf......she might be stuck on repeat.....and her looped commentary when we did talk just now... "Oh that's just so much food.." REALLY Mother? You have a 12 person dining room table and 5 cars. Having extra is a lifestyle choice for her.. :| She can't rain on Turkey.Day, I won't let her. :praying:

Only in FloriDUH

GULF BREEZE, Fla. (AP) — Investigators say a neighbor and his friend used a bow and arrow to shoot and kill a Panhandle family's pet turkey for their Thanksgiving dinner.

Sheriff's deputies arrested two Santa Rosa County teens — Joshua W. Anderson, 19, and Jacob H. Provo, 18, Pensacola News Journal said.

They told deputies they planned to eat the 30-pound turkey for Thanksgiving.

They're charged with armed burglary, armed trespassing, theft of livestock and animal cruelty.

Animal lovers Brian and Christa Caponi live on 6 acres in Gulf Breeze and have more than 50 dogs, cats, goats, chickens and other animals.

They told the Pensacola News Journal that Tom the turkey was special because he was so friendly.

In fact, Christa Caponi said Tom was more like a family dog than a turkey.

When I read this it angered me and made me feel sad for the family. Their pet was killed. But, then I thought...why does it count as animal cruelty if it is an animal that people kill and eat every day? Hundreds of thousands of turkeys (ok, more than that), are killed and being killed for the Holiday. Is it how a person defines the animal they own that determines the law? It wouldn't be animal cruelty if the Caponi's killed the turkey for their Thanksgiving Dinner.

The "theft of livestock" covers the whole, it wasn't their turkey that they killed, thing.

Just something to think about.

Perhaps it has to do with the manner that the turkey was killed. If the boys prolonged it or did something to cause additional pain and suffering to the bird than what it would take to shoot and kill it, then I can see that.

[The_Lady_Snow]

Maybe their family was hungry....

[The_Lady_Snow]

He's been washed, patted dry, and well seasoned! Nom nom nom!

[DapperButch]

Maybe their family was hungry....

I'm not sure if you were being sarcastic or not, but that certainly is possible. Of course, they said it was going to be for Thanksgiving...maybe no money for a turkey? They weren't siblings, though...

He's been washed, patted dry, and well seasoned! Nom nom nom!

Poor Tom! :|

[The_Lady_Snow]

No, it wasn't sarcasm I'd read the story DUH and all in another thread and stopped to think maybe they were hungry. I've been hungry before so I went there. I'm pretty aware though that the reality could be is that they're douche bags. Not because they're from "floriduh" but because humans are are gross with one another we just can't help it.

If they killed the poor fella for fun, hold them accountable. I'm not sure of their intent, it's just hard for me grasp the harming of the innocent it pisses me off.

[ruffryder]

Yum! The Thanksgiving turkey has been consumed.
It's time for it to be free again, and graze.

I, for one enjoyed the ham more. . and I may just be eating more ham in the coming years!

Continue to be thankful everyone!

Welp, I suppose my mother is REALLY in the minority this year with the kid now away in the Army. I don't think TF will be making turkey this year for one person! Sorry, Mom (actually, TF would, but I am sure mom is fine with skipping it).

ANNNNND it begins. Mass produced, pump them up with antibiotics and growth hormones (so healthy for us humans!), and shove them into small cages piled on top of one another (both the birds inside the cages and the cages on top of each other, of course), driving down the open highway freezing in the freezing cold, on the way to their death.

Yes, that was the day I was no longer so keen on turkey.

Because of the serious food allergies my granddaughter has, my daughter searched far and wide for a turkey raised without antibiotics, not GMO-grain fed, not injected with that solution mass-producers use to artificially "plump" them and that the turkey was pasture-fed.

Yes, no free turkey at the supermarket for them.

[fever]

Every time you talk about cooking, it always sounds so friggin delicious! I will be in California visiting my buddy FR, who doesn't like turkey, so I am cooking a ham and scalloped potatoes. Canadians have turkey for Christmas, anyways, so I will be doing a dinner for the family in Dec.

It looks good to me tho I doubt my son would think so.Over the last year I have nearly turned into a veggitarian(?) so with nearly all veggies on the table he ask if meat was in short supply,no I said i'm eating healthy so should you.Well that fell on deaf ears so now there is always meat cooked for him,I on the other hand have gone to small portiones to manage my diabetis even tho I would love to go back to the way I use to eat now and then,but it's like crack no way I can just have a little.

I've never liked (most) Thanksgiving foods: not the turkey, or the dressing, or the cranberry salad, or most certainly not any fruits embedded in Jello. (and what the hell is up with that gelatinous cranberry grossness that comes straight out of the can?? My relatives never even bothered to dice it up, so I could still see the can's rings molded on the gelatin…) I've always felt a little sad when the holidays roll around and everyone gets so excited about how much they're going to gorge themselves, while I'm planning a hunger strike.

Well, until dessert. I do an about-face on my anti-holiday foods position when it comes to pumpkin pie.

So imagine my giddiness at being invited to a small post-Thanksgiving gathering in which only two food items will be served: Potato latkes and pumpkin pie.

Finally! A Thanksgiving meal to be thankful for. :) Thank you, Hanne!!

There will be lots of gratitude floating around, none of which is related to pilgrims. No turkey for us this year, we will be having pork tenderloin, and lots of pie, since she eschews the traditional birthday cake, and wants cherry pie, and I want a pumpkin pie, as well.

I have started cooking, much to Pete's chagrin.

:dirtydishes:

[Happy_Go_Lucky]

On Thanksgiving, I will be gumming mashed potatoes, gumming turkey and fixin's, and gumming a fruitless fruit pie.

Oh, and did I mention this old-folks home makes octogenarians sign a pledge of no salt, no fat, no sugar in ANY food material?

And if said "food" needs a knife, forget it.

One would think living as long as some of these seniors, their dang food would taste a tad better.

On Thursday night, will any restaurant be open so I can have a "real" meal?

Cheers everyone!:wine:

the dilemma...

We both working on Thanksgiving and my daughter will be here. I'll be off Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Do we have lunch on Thanksgiving before work by just going out a la brunch buffet or getting a dinner catered or do I make a lil something? I really don't feel like cooking but If so it would be simple. Simple means possibly a ham, mash taters, green beans, corn, dinner rolls, pie. But still cooking and again not really wanting to.. lol Want to go out but think getting it already cooked or making a lil something cause my babe won't get to go out with us and want her to have some later. hmm..

The reality of tomorrow is we celebrate a mass genocide of Native People's of this land, and mask it up in cornucopias, gluttony & football, I prefer to celebrate Tom:)

HA!!!!!

I actually love Thomas of Turkeyness and plan on partaking of his breast to satisfy my yearning.

I actually do love the man in red as well and have decided the two shall be united as one this year and this season shall now hense forth forever be known as (in all classifications, section 2 paragraph B, line 201:)

Merry Thanksmas.

We're having Tom on Friday, Ami has to work Thursday, and we're having the parental carbon units over so we can all scream and shout and raise our blood pressure. Knowing in advance allows for preemptive research.:seeingstars:

I may be helping to save Tom. I dunno. I'm going to someone else's house and when I asked what to bring they said, 'you and whatever you think we might not have' without telling me what they have.

:blink:

This could be interesting.
