    I hate how there is only enough skin on turkeys to actually cover them. The skin to meat ratio makes me sad.
    As a child I didn't like turkey only the skin.
    My parents would sigh handing me a plate of turkey skin.

    Same here. Skin and 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.

    Marnie, I just ate some pumpkin cheesecake. Downside? There is only one cheesecake for 10 people. This doesn't work for me. I need at least half of one to myself if not the whole one.

    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 :)

    I'm going to your house too.

    No room to eat more than a couple bites at a time. What bites to eat first? Squash dressing? Green bean casserole? Chocolate pie? Nobody should have to make those kinds of decisions. :cry:

    I smother mine in peanut butter, wrap with aluminum foil, putt it on top of the Jeep exaust manifold, let the engine idle for six or seven hours, cover it with bacon and stuff a porkchop in the middle, then stuff all that in a honey smoked ham, deep fry the whole thing for 45 minutes, and make a porkrind gravy with the reserveed bacon fat.

    My cholesterol went up 400 points just reading that...is it bad that I can smell the bacon? #therapy needed STAT

    They try "scooping" my ice cream instead of handing me the tub.

    It's one day out of 365. Make it your cheat meal for the week/month and move on. Boom.
