No we don't. Just Christmas. But we have two Christmas days, for some reason.[/quote]

[color=indigo]Do you celebrate one in early December? We just saw something about that the other day and were trying to figure it out. What we saw said it was St. Nicholas Day or something similar. [/color]

[quote="dalamar"][quote="chell"][quote="dalamar"]Gah!!

Gluten intolerance is a PITA! I've a business asssociate of mine that has this condition. My,my, my...[/quote]

[color=indigo]It sure is. So many people are unfamiliar with it. I had to have a bite of my sister's dressing and I'm paying for it now. But it was so good.

How did your experience with an American Thanksgiving go? Hope you didn't have to work too hard today.[/color][/quote]

waaaaaay tooooo muuuch GREAT food.

I want a holiday like that every month! :) We spent it at a friend's house. He and his wife are both Canadians (from Saskatoon) and some of their neighbours (Born and raised in Orlando, FL). Quite the evening, even if I didn't dig the religious... whatever that was. (What's Thanksgiving celebrating anyway?)

Nope, not too much work at all. In fact, we're flying back home to our very own 41F tomorrow. I'll be home for dinner. Yay!.[/quote]

[color=indigo]Glad you had a good time. It isn't religious in our house. Interesting how it is in some.

It isn't much warmer at my house today.[/color]

[quote="perri"][quote="chell"][color=indigo]Thanks everyone. I have to limit myself to just one small spoonful of stuffing. I know I'm going to be in pain and will pay for it. But I swear she makes the best. If you are wondering why I can't eat it I can't have any gluten, basically any wheat products. This is something new for me and I'm trying to adjust. It sucks!

I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your loved ones!!![/color][/quote]hey chell! hope u had an awesome thanksgiving![/quote]

[color=indigo]Thanks! I hope you did too![/color]

[quote="d_eicholz"]woo! 2 huge meals today. probly won't need to eat for a couple days. going black friday shopping and leaving 3am so i didn't even sleep, i would be more tired if i had than just stayin up lol. i don't have too many things i need to get but just seeing all of the ridiculously crazy people is worth the trip imo![/quote]

[color=indigo]Good luck! I hope you come back to us in one piece!!!

My husband went out this morning because his friend wanted a game from WalMart. His friend had to work and couldn't go so my hubby went for him. Then he went to Kohl's to get me a bread machine because their website sucked last night and I couldn't buy it online. (We are going to try to make gluten-free breads that taste good.) He said NEVER AGAIN! I tried to warn him but he wouldn't listen to me. I stayed in bed where it was nice and warm and not crowded. [/color]

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! Hope you all have a great time and fill your bellies I will start cooking in a couple of hours.
I am frying a turkey. OMG, it's so good fried! Then, we will play some rock band and drink a little! Too bad there aren't more Shinedown songs. Does anyone else play RB?
Junkie, are you near Houston? I have family in Webster and Clear Lake.
And my BFF lives in Beaumont.

enjoy everyone dalamar have fun with those *cough* cuban cigars *cough*. chell enjoy the stuffing i hope it's not too bad once you eat it. i'll be stuffing my face with turkey and rolls no stuffing for me cuz i don't like that stuff.

[quote="chell"][quote="perri"]tht sound fun! i hope u have a great day and eat lots of turkey! yum yum![/quote]

[color=indigo]Thanks! I hope one of our nephews gets to come spend the night with us tomorrow night. It's always fun having them around.

I hope you do too! I've already told my hubby that I'm going to be bad and eat one bite of my sisters stuffing tomorrow. Even though I shouldn't and I will pay for it I'm eating some. It won't be Thanksgiving without it.[/color][/quote]well i hope everything works out for u! i love stuffing! i make it every year and my whole family devours it! lol

Thanks everyone for the wishes and i hope you all have a great one too! Not too much planned. Sister came home and having thanksgiving dinner with grandparents and supper at home with the family. after that i won't need to eat for a week lol

[quote="chell"][color=indigo]Don't you mean once the skirt is off?[/color][/quote]

Dammit.... that would explain a few things...

[color=indigo]Don't you mean once the skirt is off?[/color]

In my experience, it always gets more expensive once the skirt's out...

Oh, wait... nvm.

[color=indigo]It's always less expensive on the outskirts. Hmm, I'll have to remember it is best to visit those times of the year. I always hear such wonderful things about Montreal.[/color]

I'm on the outskirts. It's just less expensive that way.

Montreal is a tad different, more European looking than the average North-American city (Any European would definitely bicker at that statement, but whatever... *lol*). It is also ruled by the utter duality of two cultures crashing and constantly battling - the two great forces of human nature that shaped our society to what it is today.

It's a splendid town to visit from end of June to end of August.

[color=indigo]Hope you don't have to work too hard tomorrow. Sorry you have to work.

Sounds like you will have an excellent dinner. It doesn't matter if those are traditional or not! Thanksgiving is about being with the people who make you happy anyway. Well it is in my book. Who cares what anyone else thinks? :wink: Eat good food, drink the good stuff and enjoy the company!

Do you live right in Montreal or on the outskirts? I've always wanted to visit but just haven't yet. We went to Niagara a lot when I was a kid. My grandparents lived in Buffalo. We went over there for cheese, Tylenol 3 and some Chinese restaurant. Odd the things we remember. Several years ago I took a few trips to Calgary for another job I had. It was beautiful up there. One of the girls I was working with in that office was from Montreal. [/color]

Well, we need to work during the day: the rest of the world isn't on holiday :)

However, we are invited by friends of ours to a traditional Thanksgiving dinner, apparently. I bought some foie gras, champagne and wine. We've some *cough* Cuban cigars *cough* and a few other goodies, knowing they

[color=indigo]So Dalamar what will you be doing tomorrow? Hope you have a great experience with your first American Thanksgiving.[/color]

Well, to all of you, Happy Thanksgiving.

I'll be having my first american Thanksgiving experience tomorrow. Fun fun fun...

And we decided to skip BMG or even the Bolts : we're too damn tired.
