. So it was resent on Saturday.
Pumpkinfish...I sent your envie out today..hopefully you will get if b4 Thanksgiving and can use it for some BF specials....
I'll even be near a CVS as we are heading to NY to visit DH's family 
No big deal really but I just wanted to remind everyone there are three coupon trains on the budget board right now so it can get confusing as to which is which and where to post. Just please be sure to find the one that is titled Coupon Exchange Train~~New Riders Welcome! or look for my name ShiPooOwner under the title of the thread. When we are looking for a posting from our sender or receiver, confusion can result if the posting is on a different train. So my dear riders, please make sure you're on the right train track. 
Thank you and have a tremendous Tuesday!
last weekend and we were tied up that weekend so couldn't go. 
This year since it's just my DH and me, we're heading to a restaurant at 12:30 (early but only time open since I made the ressie late) and then to a movie. We've done that only once before and I wasn't too impressed, but it's time to give it another shot, right? Anybody see a good movie lately? Any recommendations?
Although this will be the first in 8 yrs that I haven't made green bean casserole 
Thank God my mama will be here to help me cook. We eat lunch at 12:00 with my moms family and then at 6:00 we do it all again for my dads side of the family. My DH only has his mom and stepfather and they are not able to do the drive here. They will be eating with Stepfathers family. It should be a busy day
B. and I am REALLY excited about it! It was a last minute (within last 2 weeks) decision because DH found out he would have the time off from school. So we get to go spend Thanksgiving with his family in NY (haven't done that for 5 years). I am so eager to have an italian turkey day
The expression Italian turkey day is new to me. Special foods or just a lot of Italian heritage at the table? Or ??? 
Okay Pumpkinfish, we need to do a little 'splainen please.
So far it's mostly A's so I know you train riders are going to be very busy in the next few days!
It was so funny because I just kept looking over to DH (I come from a proper-mannered Christian family) with these bug-eyes. The first Thanksgiving was when we were still dating and was only the 2nd time I had met them ). Anyways, my sis comes to visit and in the middle of the Thanksgiving meal I look over at her and her poor eyes were bugged out! lol ) and bringing their boyfriend/girlfriends/fiancee around. Needless to say, if you can't tell...I am really excited!!!
ROFL! I laugh out loud because it isn't the typical thanksgiving I am/was used to growing up! Let's just say he comes from a very boisterous italian family. During my first Thanksgiving with him, there were bad words used at their table that I had never heard of befroe (and most from his cousins).
Flash forward to 1 year later when my sis comes up to visit us for Thaksgiving (DH and I had just married a few months prior and moved to NY and lived on the same street as DH's family...aka I was used to them by then
Anyways, that's italian Thanksgiving to me. As far as foods...YUM! Stuffed mushrooms w/sausage; pastas I can't even pronounce; 2 types of lasagna; wine flowing from every corner; great discussions! Now the cousins are grown up (a lot changes in 9 years since that first meal
It sounds like fun and I'll bet the food is scrumptious! Have a GREAT time and enjoy! 
(I know you will! I think maybe I need some Italian in-laws!!)
A and C. My family is coming to visit, but we're all going out to eat since they won't arrive until mid morning on Thanksgiving and I have a serious gag reflex when it comes to birds with bones and my mom didn't really want to come early so she could cook a turkey. So, we're headed to a buffet at a hotel inside Zion National Park at 4, and I think everyone is excited. We'll have pies and a large assortment of junk food for post coma snacking. So, lucky me, I get to host without any real cooking
A serious gag reflex had me confused for a minute. Then I realized you meant when getting it ready to cook, right? Not eating it! 
A serious gag reflex had me confused for a minute.
Enjoy!
It's weird, I know. People have been making fun of me for this for years.
I was referring to preparing it, but actually, I do struggle eating poultry off the bone as well. I'm a boneless kind of girl. Although I can eat ribs.
