    They pour me a glass of wine instead of setting out a bottle at each place setting.

    This is a real world problem!!! Come to my house... we use glasses that hold a full bottle each :)

    Only two pumpkin pies this year? What are the rest of you fools having for dessert?

    Pecan pie.

    Or as my grandma and I used to say... whatever's left of the stuffing.

    My sister-in-law use to make a huge pumpkin cheesecake every Thanksgiving, but she moved to New York.
    This year, my mother-in-law is making pumpkin cheesecake ... but in these tiny friggin muffin wrappers.
    Seriously, WTF?!
    The only good thing about them is that I'll be able to turn them inside out over my mouth and swallow them whole.

    I would pay good money to see that.

    dread the family trying to talk to you over dinner. Can you not see i have the fork in my hand, i cant waste time talking about life, there is food to shove in my mouth.

    Also hot food, slows the process of eating way down.

    More like is the extra calories for one day worth the angst of not kicking back and enjoying yourself guilt free?

    With Hostess going under I fear that this might be the last year for turtwinkies!

    http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/bestoftv/2012/11/21/tsr-moos-twinkie-turkey.cnn

    That turkey is extremely disturbing, all spread-eagle on the table with twinkie stuffing piled in its hole to the brim. :indifferent:

    Turducken.. why stop with chicken? Why can't we stuff a quail and dove in there too? Maybe a hummingbird?
    Out of control.

    I'm worried there's not going to be enough cranberry sauce. There's usually just 1 platter of this, and I'm usually having to fight my family over who get's any. :tongue:

    Plates are never big enough

    This is something else I'm worried about. They are NEVER big enough. At least I guess I'll burn extra calories with all of the extra trips to the food line. :tongue:
