I wasn’t feeling so hot Thanksgiving, so didn’t have my dinner till Saturday (Cornish game hen with onion-bacon rice stuffing). As I write this, I’m full. Yeah, these cats know what I’m talkin’ about …
And it would have to be red velvet … Image found on VeryFunnyPics.
Pretty much how I feel right now even though I didn’t eat nearly that much. Image found on Pinterest.
This food baby’s about to make an appearance! Image found on Funny Image Gallery.
Good lord, what was in that dressing? Is there any left? Image found on Bored Panda.
Gooood turkey … goooood night! Image found on WinkGo.
Did I hear someone opening that Tupperware container of turkey? Image found on Pinterest.
Human, fetch me a piece of that pumpkin pie. And don’t forget the whipped cream this time! Image found on The Spruce.

We enjoyed Thanksgiving in Portland (the one on the left) (politically as well as geographically) with family and some new folks. Sitting across the table from the parents of the boy-friend connected through in-laws and cousins, we respectfully observed the universal injunction against talking politics at the family Thanksgiving table. Then, somebody made a comment about SCROTUS, and we were off to the races, competing over who was the most disgusted with him. Good times. Putting the Thanks back into Thanksgiving.
I think everyone who hasn’t been taken in by him and those who have seen the light (at last count around 67%) is disgusted by him. Hopefully the discussion was kept somewhat to a minimum to keep down indigestion. 🤢
I ate too much pie. I’m on a Thanksgiving detox diet right now – salad and yogurt. I definitely identify with the first cat – “When you’re full and someone brings out a cake.”
Every now and then I had to redirect a conversation that started to get political (“Mom, have you tried this pie?”).
I think one brother is the only one in our family not horrified by SCROTUS, so I’m sure if he started in, everyone else would just leave the room. Just like when he gets started on just about anything. 😉
My mom and brother see eye-to-eye (only politically; he’s 6’5′), so my sister and I have to sneak around to talk about politics. I’m pretty sure my mom knows all the Fox “News” talking points.
If it was a German chocolate cake or an ice cream cake, I would try to adopt the whole cake and nothing but the whole cake so I could take it home with me.
Now I’m wishing I’d gotten away from my son’s house with more dessert! A bit of turkey, stuffing, and gravy was all I took … and now suddenly I’m ready for another round!
I will have to stop reading this because it is making me hungry and reminding me of what a good meal I did eat on Thanksgiving day although I was at work that day.
One of my co-workers (a retired Air Force sergeant) sarcastically refers to CNN as the “Communist News Network”. He prefers to watch Fox. No I do not discuss politics with him.
I'm a retiree in his seventies. That may not be significant to many, since there is a bunch of us Baby Boomers around. However, in the year 2,000, when I received a diagnosis of Multiple Myeloma, I expected to be dead in three to five years.

Talking points on either side make me tune out, but those from Fox, Breitbart, etc., are especially egregious because so many are ridiculous.

It’s always after it’s out of reach that you really want more. Smoked turkey, dressing, potatoes, fudge cake … Yum … 🍗🍰
