Virginia, I think that the turkey is just for decoration, maybe because of the fall colors. No one would want to eat that poor turkey!

There's no such thing as a vegetarian cat as I understand it. They have to have meat to survive. The fancy name for this type of animal is an "obligate carnivore."
Humans on the other hand aren't obligate carnivores. Some of us would want a vegetarian Thanksgiving but recognize that that isn't what many people have in mind.
What would Thanksgiving be without the turkey? And the stuffing?
It could be stuffed peppers, stuffed potatoes, stuffed squash....Last edited by agate; 11-27-2019, 01:02 PM.SPMS diagnosed 1980. Avonex 2001-2004. Copaxone 2006-2009. Glatopa (glatiramer acetate = Copaxone) 12/20 - 3/19/24.Comment

I have to put my two cents in and say UGGH to stuffed peppers, stuffed potatoes, stuffed squash for Thanksgiving. When my Mother was doing the cooking we always had Turkey and the best dressing you ever tasted, sweet potato casserole, green peas and even biscuits (oh, how she could make biscuits) and we were not fat.
My Mother in law also cooked a very big meal for Thanksgiving and Christmas with much the same foods except that she also added fried okra. We always had gravy to go on our turkey and dressing. My Mother-in-law use to put green beans up in a jar when they were fresh and we would have them when we went there in the winter. All of my husband's family were slender. I saw a picture of his Mother and Father recently and all seven of their kids. I remember when the picture was taken. They were a good looking family. His two siblings that are still living are still slender. I don't get to see them, but I have seen many pictures of them on FB. At least one thing that FB is good for.VirginiaComment

A hotdog for Thanksgiving? I'll just stick with turkey.

No stuffed pepper, stuffed potato, or stuffed squash for Virginia!
No hot dogs for Howie!

I'd like to have the puppy in that picture, but not to eat him, just love on him. Sam wouldn't let Howie do that and anyway Howie is a Cat man.VirginiaComment

Sam says you're right about that!

My nephew just brought me lots of food which I'll eat shortly. We sat and talked for awhile, which was nice. He said he will do the same thing at Christmas. A nice visit."Given the millions of billions of Earth-like planets, life elsewhere in the Universe without a doubt, does exist."

Howie, so glad you are having a nice Thanksgiving meal. I imagine it might have come by him from your Sister's. Either way that is great.
I am also having one. My youngest brother called and "insisted" on bringing me food. They had 14 of my SILs family today. He brought turkey, dressing, honey baked ham, green beans, sweet potato casserole, two different kinds of cranberry sauce, a Fall salad with the little noodles, cabbage, and sunflower seeds. There is also some sweet potatoes that I don't know what to call them but they are cut in little rounds with a little cinnamon and they are a little hard and very good. He brought about 5 different kinds of desert. I ate all of the salad and tasted everything else and 3/4 of a pumpkin pie.
This SIL is the best cook in the family. She likes to entertain and has learned how to cook. It was so nice of her and my brother to do this. Feeling grateful.VirginiaComment

Every family need someone who likes to cook and likes to entertain.
Howie, I hope Sam is aware of the arrival of the food. In case she doesn't mention it, she might appreciate a handout or two.SPMS diagnosed 1980. Avonex 2001-2004. Copaxone 2006-2009. Glatopa (glatiramer acetate = Copaxone) 12/20 - 3/19/24.Comment

Virginia, actually, it came from his wife. My sister and BIL just went out to eat. She says she just isn't up to all that cooking after years of doing it, and she was ready to pass it on to the younger generation. I still haven't eaten, but think I'm ready now, and I KNOW Sam is.
