So here I am, for the first time in 15 yrs, being able to cook for my family for Thanksgiving. I have to say I make some of the BEST dressing in the world. My daughter told me that SHE would be making her oyster stuffing again, I told her fine, as long as I made MY stuffing too! She also wants to almost arm wrestle for the right to make our family's traditional cheesy corn casserole. I think I will let her, knowing she wouldn't have known how to make it if it were not for ME teaching her so many years ago! LOL Bottom line is, Thanksgiving will be at MY place this year! |

Before there was Jello there was Aspic which for those who do not want to click the link it's congealed meat stock.... yummmm.
I've had all the kinds of jello mentioned here... they're really not that bad. The cottage cheese one is one of my favourites. Aspic with rice, corn and vegetables. http://img.750g.com/galaxie/939/2793..._de_aspics.jpg |
the ex-mil's dressing and gravy. sooooo super gross with the innards nasties and sliced boiled eggs. I mean. gravy is not meant to be chunky...i gag at the thought of it *bleck*

Perhaps, to someone, it tastes good, but still... who thought it up? |

I'd know--we eat gizzards at thanksgiving. |

For years, my dear Pop thought that giving his friends these little hard bricks of dry, chewy, sticky, cubed, candied, plastic-tasting so-called "fruitcake" was a really good idea. They're made in Claxton, Georgia, and have been around for something like 100 years. How this has happened, I have no idea. Apparently, there are some people who actually *like* these things. They'd make great door stoppers. :blink:
Me?? I'd only give them to someone whom I really, really didn't like. :| I think this stuff would survive years and years of re-gifting. The shelf life of them has to be at least 25 years. They probably stock them in fallout shelters. :pointing: http://i709.photobucket.com/albums/w...nFruitCake.jpg ~Theo~ :bouquet: |

Oh my gosh I have been nasious feeling for about 3 weeks now. The smell of food makes me sick then eating food makes me sick. i didn't think that looking at pictures of food could make me sick until now. OMG these dishes are NASTY what is wrong with people.
I have to say the description of the deer and cheries. OMG almost had me grabing the trash can on that. Lordy I never knew. Then the picture of the Aspic dish.. Ummm maybe this thread isn't for me. Wowzers Last night laying in bed Panama and I were talking about thanksgiving dinner and what we want to do. Hys family tradition is to go to Golden Corral which the food there is okay not the best but not the worst however my family always had the big family gathering at someone's house everyone brought something. So we are going to Golden Corral which hy knows I am not too excited about but it will be nice spending time with hys mom and her friend and try something new. Then the idea poped in hys handsome head to do both. We can have a small turkey and everything here and go there. OH MY GOSH.... okay I love to bake and I love to cook the turkey, and I love hym for thinking of me and trying to make sure I am happy too. Then the idea that hy had was to make hys grandmother's side dish. Oh its jello again.... lemon jello with shredded carrots and celery. I looked at hym and said "maybe we just go out to dinner." I kissed hym sweetly and went to sleep before more idea's could come up. I love you Pan I really do but veggies do NOT belong in desserts. |
I'm a-tellin' ya, 7-up can save that.

I can understand liking some fruitcakes. There are some I really like, but....The Claxton breed??? Oh no. :blink: You'd be pulling it out of and from between your teeth 'til perdition. :| Oh, and I saw this the other day, out here at MY COMMISSARY!!!! :| http://i709.photobucket.com/albums/w...cake-60990.jpg <insert theme to "Jaws" here> It looks suspiciously like The Claxton Fruitcake...."born again" into a Hostess wrapper. I think it is trying to deceive us and ride on the coat tails of The Twinkie. :twitch: Pop said that he likes this stuff with his coffee. I think he's using the coffee to soak it out of his teeth. ~Theo~ :bouquet: |
I can't abide holiday food. Turkey, unless it's a top dollar free range rare breed bird, is so bland. Last year we had a rather voluptuous paella.

i smoked it with applewood smoked wood and it was an organic bird raised on a family owned farm. yes, i'm a turkey snob and i rarely eat turkey as well. battery birds don't appeal to me no matter how well it's prepared. |
Quote:
I don't understand how anyone can eat battery raised fowl. When it comes to meat (fish, fowl or fauna), you get what you pay for. |
