Ugh. I'm ready for a vodka martini with 3 green olives. Is 4:45 am too early?!!?

NEVER! :laughing:

Happy Thanksgiving, friends!

Our brunch (4 people):
eggs, scrambled or fried
bacon
chicken sausage
scrapple (talk about your regional dishes :laughing:)
gluten free cranberry bread

Dinner (8 people--we usually have 12+):
turkey from the farm where we get our meat
gravy
traditional bread stuffing
apple-walnut stuffing (vegetarian)
mashed potatoes, with and without dairy
roasted sweet potatoes
broccoli casserole
steamed veggies
homemade cranberry sauce
apple pie
pumpkin custard (dairy free)
layered pumpkin pie (pumpkin chiffon base with sweetened whipped cream in between)
layered pumpkin pie (dairy free; will whip canned coconut milk as a sub)
wine lol

We deal with many allergies (soy, dairy, buncha random stuff) and intolerances (all grains, gluten, cruciferous veggies) so we have to have a variety of food, even with a small group of people.

We just had scrapple over the weekend :) Tried turkey scrapple (who knew?) Tasted the same to me and got a jump start on the holiday.

I'm interested in what type of broccoli casserole you do. Mom's been looking for a new side dish and I think something like that would work.
Been loving everyone's menus to get ideas! Unfortunately while she says she wants something new she has nixed a bunch of suggestions before due to various tastes. Like I see sauerkraut on @Mopedmom1 's list, and while she loves sauerkraut, there's no way she'll put it together with a turkey. Hubby had suggested a beet salad of some type, and I see various beet dishes on lists, but she doesn't like beets :upsidedow

But she likes broccoli and casseroles and we've done roasted broccoli with turkey before so I think I can make that fly. :laughing:
 
Dh and I just finished the new lady and the tramp on Disney+. It was okay but a little long. I’m not really into the whole making “live” animals talk thing. I didn’t like it in Lion King either. They also cut out the iconic Siamese cats song
 
RCCL cruisers, check out Black Friday deals that are live now. I already have the beverage package and just grabbed 2 device surf (not stream as we don't need it) for $119 and was able to use my remaining $50 OBC. Excursions, Internet, dining, key, and more are on sale.

Edited to add: I swear I also received $50 of additional on board credit too. I had $50 and used it on the glitch ultimate beverage package deal back in July. Just confirmed on my receipt and it said I used all my OBC. When I went to the RCCL site today something popped up saying I had $50 of OBC and it was applied to my purchase of internet. Definitely worth clicking through to see if you get any extra.

I love it. It's unlimited cloud storage. Can play on up to 5 devices I believe. All local channels, HGTV, History, Discovery. For us it was important to be able to watch sports, and it includes our local FSN that plays baseball and basketball games, as well as Big Ten Network for some other sports. Except sports we aren't a big TV watching family, so it is our only streaming service. They usually have a one week free trial, so if you already have a smart tv or some sort of streaming device you could always try it and see if you like it.

Thank you! This sounds like exactly what we need. I wasn't aware there was a free trial so will definitely check that out.
 
Finally got around to placing 2 of my BJ's Disney gift card orders to take advantage of the chase $25 off $150 offers. The rest of the cards are at home in the sock drawer so will need to remember to do that before my free one day online membership pass expires. DVC dues at 20% off, yes please!

I love it too. We've been using it for almost a year. Love the cloud DVR. DS has his sports. I have bravo, local networks, and my cable news channel.
