Next Friday is October 31, Halloween. And then we move into November, the month of Thanksgiving as I recall. I don’t know about the rest of you, but traditionally on Thanksgiving we eat turkey. Always have. For the past decade or so we have had Thanksgiving at my house, turkey. And not just a turkey, but I learned from John Madden doing Thanksgiving football that a turkey should have at least 6 drumsticks, so when I do my turkey I always buy 6 or 8 drumsticks and soak them in a mixture of a 1/5th of Jack Daniels black, honey, cherry preserves, and home made barbeque sauce for a few days before I do them outside on the Weber. If we do have leftover turkey, we never have left over drumsticks.
Today I was told that one of my sisters wants to have Thanksgiving at her house, and no turkey. Thanksgiving dinner…aint going to be turkey. I can't answer for the rest of the world, but in America where I'm from, we have a holiday called Thanksgiving, and we eat turkey on that day. When told about this, I asked, “What do you mean Thanksgiving without turkey”, and was told that lots of people have other things for Thanksgiving instead of turkey. What comes to mind are two episodes of “Everyone Loves Raymond”. One where Raymond’s mother made tofu turkey, which makes sense because I heard this from our mother, whom apparently doesn’t like turkey and probably has her hands buried in this no turkey Thanksgiving at me sister's. And the second episode, Raymond’s wife Debra made some sort of fish for Thanksgiving.
Now here is my question. Thanksgiving in about a month with no turkey? I only have about one month to come up with a plan. What, as we’re sitting down to Thanksgiving dinner at my sister’s of cheese fondue and crab meat finger sandwiches or whatever they’ve cooked up, should I have a turkey dinner delivered to her house? Can you order a turkey dinner with 6 or 8 extra drumsticks soaked in Jack Daniels and other spices? What am I supposed to do? This world…really is upside down, but I aint married, so its not like any woman is going to make me sleep on a sofa out in a garage or anything over a turkey or anything else for that matter. I'm down to about a month and don't want to wait until the last minute to come up with a plan. Cook a real Thanksgiving dinner at my house, toss it in the refridge and then head over for a Julienne salad dinner, knowing that later that night...

Today's Featured Article - Old Time Threshing - by Anthony West. A lovely harvest evening late September 1947, I was a school boy, like all school boys I loved harvest time. The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
