Thanksgiving 2021: What's for Dinner?

[deluxestogie]

Celebratory meals span a wide range cultural variations. I, for example, will be enjoying a peanut butter and jelly sandwich on whole wheat toast, accompanied by generous sides of honey roasted peanuts and Wavy Lays.


This orangutan in Borneo is enjoying the special treat of eating a freshly caught, slow loris. For those who don't know, you eat it head first.

What are you having to eat for Thanksgiving?

We had Thanksgiving last Friday with our Boys who could not get time off this week. Today we use the last of the leftover Turkey in a Turkey Pot Pie. (Which is my favorite way to use leftover Turkey)

It's 59°F today, but breezy. To be able to sit on my butt, out on my porch, I am wearing a fleece vest, a fleece jacket and a wind-proof top layer. The ballcap is heavy canvas, and topped with a sock hat.

I had no left-overs.

Always room for one more here Bob. We are having the works. Dinner is at 4:30 so you better get going now. I'll save you a drumstick. And some slow loris pie.

Is that slow loris pie?

 

[GreenDragon]

I understand it tastes very similar!

I got the dessert!
Fresh made Stag Horn and Burley loose leaf chew ! Rolled in an apple juice reduction with a healthy wallop of molasses and a slash of Bulleit.. I made this this afternoon while the turkey was cooking and it really smelled good throughout the house.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone and thank you all for the help along the way this growing season.

No. That's Slow Loris

I forgot to mention that slow lorises are one of the very few venomous mammals. Every predator seems to avoid them...except orangutans.

So, no slow loris for you!
