Christmas Shopping

[chicoazul]

You should get on it - a fully sanctioned day of laziness and gluttony.

Big roasted turkey, green been casserole, scalloped potatoes, mashed potatoes, herbed sausage stuffing, fresh rolls, sweet potatoes, pumpkin pie, pecan pie, cranberry sauce etc...

Throw a couple of Premier League matches on the tube for continuing daily entertainment...

What's not to love? You can borrow if you'd like.

Fourth Thursday in November.

SIGN ME UP.

Thanksgiving - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

If you need, so be it. Never been a religious holiday at the CT house. We give our due praise but it's not a religious get-down like Easter etc...

Get on down, Chico. Sounds like you're regularly state-side, there are plenty of places that have a Thanksgiving dinner on the regular menu.

The further South you get, your rolls might get replaced with cornbread - a lovely wrinkle if I do say so myself.

Can't make it for this one, but I'm going to find some American friends to invite me a dinner.

High 30's here again today. Came through the door sweating buckets to find the wife had set up the Christmas tree.

Just wrong.

I heard 'Fairytale of New York' on the radio yesterday. Shocking. Way too early to think about Christmas yet in our house.


*Note to self, put sprouts on when you get home.

I'm getting that way Dutch, its for kiddies and commercialism, some schools here no longer do the Nativity plays in case it upsets others, everywhere you go the same crap music being thrown at you from all points of the compass, I'm not even allowed to get pissed no ffs. the local chapel stopped doing midnight services because of low attendances and the fact they can't afford the heating.............................humbug the lot of it I'll stay in bed for a fortnight

I heard a christmas song on radio 1 as I was driving home yesterday, not sure if it was a piss take but I refused to listen to the station for the rest of the journey out of principle
