A very special Thursday-134! Aka Alice's Restaurant!!

[RICHARD]

Mulled wine sounds great (Never had it before but I LOVE mulled cider)

Just one suggestion for this week.........

How 'bout we move from the bar to.....

Alice's Restaurant

and have a Thanksgiving dinner that just can't be beat?

DONE AND DONE!!!!!

[momoffuzzyfaces]

Who's Alice and where in the world is her restaurant, and Richard, how did you get the name of the thread to change?

Maybe it's a new feature with this new set up? I could never change them before.

Davie, glad you got a ride for tonight at least. No fun driving a car that's not feeling well in snow and ice and in the dark on hills!!!

MOFF,

Alice's Restaurant is a number by Arlo Guthrie. It's a Thanksgiving Classic (I'm surprised, MOFF, you're education is lacking....LOL The ACTUAL Alice's Restaurant was in Stockbridge, Massachusetts. Here's a link to they Lyrics:

The Cheese straws are done, ready for munching, and the coffee and bailey's are all set.

Well, aren't all of you guys busy busy busy? Mulled wine - mulled cider - and yams!!!

Laurie, let me stand behind you and watch you make those. I absolutely LOVE yams - not too fond of the marshmallow route - but love the brown sugar and butter with them.

Richard, I thought you said Possum and Lady were on the gravy patrol........smart pups! It makes their kibble so tasty!

Mario!!! Stop yanking the turkey out of the oven. Oh, someone, please explain roasting turkey to Mario!!! No, Mario, you aren't next in the oven, I promise you!!!

Debbie and Terry, Julie and Byron - Moff - Corinna and family - Richard -
Laurie - Slick - KayAnn - Davidp - Lady's Human - LoudLou - the behaving Zipster (I don't believe that for a minute)

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

If the dinner doesn't turn out alright - ALICE'S HERE I COME!!

[lbaker]

Well you can get anything you want
..at Alice's Restaurant.. except Alice

hmmm, sounds like Thursdays doesn't it

My sweet taters are cooked and mashed up nicely then mixed in with a bit of brown & white sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and a touch of clove, then beaten again with some OJ, butter and egg yolks... don't run away yet... then gently fold in beaten egg whites and secret stuff. Bake in a buttered cassarole dish like a poofy thing (I can't spell souffle'). I sometimes add in raisens and sometimes some nutz on the top. Tastes more like a punkin' pie then a veggie dish. My kids used to like it topped with the mini marshmallows of course (so does Mario). Don't knock it till you've tried it I don't "do" red wine but some mulled cider would work... I'll have to mull that over to decide "Behaving Zipster" ~ isn't that a contradiction of terms??

[gini]

Could someone please wipe the drool off of my chin - I have Mario on one arm and mulled wine in the other hand - and Laurie's taters just about did me in!

[slick]

OMD....if I'm too tired to read this whole thread, how can Laurie still be up and awake??? I'm just going to grab a double BM, have my dinner and head off to bed. Yes, I have Alice's Restaurant on CD and play it frequently. Sweet dreams...see you in the morning.

[I] "Behaving Zipster" ~ isn't that a contradiction of terms??

LOL

Once again, Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Many blessings to you!

Checking in between the busyness. The people on day shift had a nice, quiet day. That's not been so for us. So, the phone keeps ringing for more requests of service. Lots of complaints about loud music. I've got the coffee machine. I'm going to whip me up a latte before I have to leave. Maybe Mario can do the coffee requests tonight. I gave him a few lessons last time on how to use it. A pumpkin cookie with the latte would be perfect. I'll check back in later to see how many are still here. I hate working on holidays!
