Because we are both lucky enough to have family that has hosted Thanksgiving all these years, we haven't ever experienced the whole shebang ourselves. Tyra, Hal, Scott, Jorine, Mindy, John and Johnny started the day by running in the "feed the hungry"run. I hope that will be a standing tradition at our house and maybe next year I can do it too. I am old and have never really cooked a turkey that mattered. That seemed like too much pressure! Scott volunteered to cook the turkey for us and did a fabulous job. He soaked it in some concoction in a 5 gallon container and honestly...it was the best ever. The kids and I made turkeys with our little pumpkins for the tables. The rest of the dinner was an accidental success. The men and kids were funny. They usually have a turkey shoot using real guns out in the fields. They improvised with BB guns in the back yard.
