random thoughts whilst getting ready for Thanksgiving

Oh, how true this card is.

I'm brining a turkey today. That means my turkey is taking a 24-hour bath in some good smelling stuff in my fridge before I throw it in the oven Thursday. Tomorrow is pie making day. We're only having my mother-in-law over for Thanksgiving dinner, but I feel the need to make two pies. One pie for them…

Okay, the turkey is brining. I forgot the candied ginger, but I suspect my non-foodie family will not notice (or care).

Tomorrow I will attempt using a vegetable peeler without injury. Just so you know, this is not a good week to be using sharp things.

Are white Russians an appropriate Thanksgiving drink? No reason.

What about mudslides?

When you go around the table to say what you're thankful for on Thanksgiving, go ahead and say "I'm thankful for you bitches." I've said it once this week to friends and it made them feel all warm and fuzzy inside, I just know it.

Uh-oh. Ocean's 11 just started. Why does this movie suck me in? I don't particularly like Brad Pitt. Clooney is the modern day Cary Grant and Matt Damon is adorable. It could only be better if Alec Baldwin were in it.

"I owe you from the thing with the guy in the place and I'll never forget it" is one of my favorite lines in any movie and it's from Ocean's.

Thanksgiving is my favorite practically all-carb holiday. Even the vegetables have carbs. And those french-fried onion things. No one buys those unless they're putting them on green bean casserole. Think about it. It's a grocery conspiracy. 

I asked Prof. Dr. Hiljary if Xtina Aguilera is the Prodigal Virgin because she always wears white on award shows. If someone doesn't name a band Prodigal Virgin, I will lose my faith in the interwebs. "Did you get that new Prodigal Virgin album?" See? Totally works. Come on, hipsters – I've named your new band.

Did I tell y'all about my cousin who posted pics of herself on Facebook during a tornado warning wearing a hard had and life jacket? I'll just let y'all think about that for a minute.

I thought I would give y'all my recipe for Harvest Margaritas for your Thanksgiving festivities. You will need to follow this recipe exactly. Take one margarita, put a piece of pumpkin in it. Pumpkins make everything harvest-themed, bitches!

I need pie.
