Have an enjoyable Thanksgiving Massholes. Do what feels right, if you've had a recent loss, or if this is a first thanksgiving without a loved one, my dad passed in April. He didn't care much about the thanksgiving spread, so where ever he is eating or not eating, as long as some spirit isn't nagging the crap out of him to eat more, I know he's at peace. Paul that is some funny story about your friend and your dog. Never loose your sense of humor. Have a good day all... I'm back to cooking in a minute.
