8. If I had known this a few weeks ago

I would have mooched a place at your table and I wouldn't be flying to Buffalo. :cry:

I hope it goes very well! Please give Lisa and Uncle Princess big hugs from me.

15. So you're all prejudiced against turkeys!

Aha! I knew it! Keepin the turkey down!

Try deep frying it, and I bet you'll find a taste for it...

17. All righty then! We're having 28 adults and 11 kids. TWO turkeys required.

Plus a ham.

18. That'll be great, priyanka!

And you don't need turkey!

My Thanksgiving has grown. Two friends from Iowa who now live in the Chicago area and can't get home for Thanksgiving are coming here, along with a colleague who would otherwise be alone. And my dad. But I'm not cooking. We're going to the buffet at the lodge at a beautiful state park near here. My dad and I went there last year. The trees were gorgeous, and one whole wal of the restaurant is picture windows with a great view of the woods. It should be a good day.

Hope yours is! Happy Thanksgiving to you and Lisa! :hi:
