From now on it's just, kick back, coast and have fun.
My kinda holiday.
Hope the weather isn't too ugly for those who have to drive here.
Gonna be a lot of grub.
Maybe we should invite a few hungry homeless folks.
So, I got this pecan pie frozen in the fridge. We meet at 3:00pm and will
probably eat the pie around 4:00pm. When should I take it out of the
freezer to thaw properly? Tonight before I go to bed, put it down below in
the fridge and take it out in the morning to thaw on the counter?
I remember once as a teenager we took a frozen peach pie and it in the oven
and four hours later it was still cold as a igloo...
Have you ever HAD frozen pecan pie?
Sounds like a powerful risk to take on a big day, and they're so easy to
make.
Next time just whip one up yoseff,
Christmas tree is up. Ham is in the oven. Oyster cracker snack is
finished. Pecans are roasting as I write this, will be candied pecan in a
little while. Turkey is thawing in the refrigerator. They had better clean
their plates, that's all I can say. Almost time for a beer.
Thank you, Ma. I'm not allowed to make these difficult domestic decisions,
so I didn't know. I'll go set it out right now.
What's it take to thaw out a 25 pound turkey, six months?
Our friend Doloris baked some cookies and they weren't very good. They were
kind of hard and chewy and didn't taste right. She realized as she
finished baking the last batch she had forgotten to blend in the flour.
A friend's wife made Manwiches and didn't read the directions on the can.
She neglected to add the ground beef. He said they were a bit thin in
texture.
Saw a gal with one in line at the supermarket a couple days ago.
Knew instinctively she was cutting it close.

Making coffee has become the great compromise of the decade. It's the only
thing "real" men do that doesn't seem to threaten their masculinity. To
women, it's on the same domestic entry level as putting the spring back into
the toilet-tissue holder or taking a chicken out of the freezer to thaw. -

My future would be so hot, I'd have to wear shades!
OK...fess up...how do you candy pecans?
Will someone please help me. I can't quit eating the damn things.
You talking pecan brittle? That sounds good. Sugar glazed pecans?
sugar glazed...but Bill won't give me the recipe.
Well, he is an asshole. :-)

< smoooooch > : )
*Did someone forget to turn the oven on ?
Tim, you could have made a homemade pecan pie in less time than it took to
thaw the one you bought.
And....it would have been much better.
Happy Thanksgiving !

You bet. I've made a couple pecan pies, and they are easy to make and
delicious. The one I bought was baked in a local bakery over in Suttons
Bay, and proved to be excellent, and thawed enough thanks to you guys.
Hope you had as nice a dinner as I did today. They put on quite a spread.
