DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 303
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 279
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 218


Happy Winter Doldrums! We had some cold and windy weather on the weekend. We have a little bit of snow possible today. And then we have even colder weather next weekend being forecast. We really are in the winter doldrums now. But that's ok because these 3 counts will make you smile through the winter. We have 303 days till Thanksgiving, 279 days till November, and 218 days till The Bers. What's better is that in 2 days we'll reach our next milestone which is Tom Turkey Day #2. We'll have a poll that day to celebrate it. And then the following day on Friday we will all celebrate another milestone as we reach the 300 Day Marker to Thanksgiving. Talk about absolutely amazing. That's going to be a BIG one folks. You all know the 3s is the key to the counts. Those are the only hard parts really. Well I hope you all are enjoying your turkey food like CW's subway or turkey thoughts like we all have on a daily basis here. Have a great Winter Doldrums!​
 
Turkey is always great no matter the reason! This was a cajun-spiced turkey breast from butterball. Our first time trying it. Everyone loved it, so I'm sure it will make an appearance again over the next few months. We have spiral ham dialed up for February Rudolph Day, so maybe turkey again in March or April?
March or April sounds good!

Happy Jolting January! We had a little bit of snow on Tuesday. That's one thing I do not want to happen on any of our 3 goals above. We've had it before on Thanksgiving Day but it's not normal for that to happen. What will the weather be on Thanksgiving? I can't forecast it. But I can give you the 3 counts: 302 days till Thanksgiving, 278 days till November, and 217 days till The Bers. All 3 of our countdowns look good to me here in the middle of the week in the middle of the winter. Tomorrow folks is a special day. It will be our next milestone which will be Tom Turkey Day #2, and that will be followed by the 300 Day Marker to Thanksgiving the day after that. Back to Back milestones are coming folks the next 2 days. I'll have a special poll for you all tomorrow to celebrate our Tom Turkey Day as we have a poll every other Thursday. Have a great Jolting January!​
 
Happy Weds turkey fiends! Bitter cold today and snow for me. Decided to roast chickens tonite.. 2 marinated in Italian dressing, 2 with a orange marinade and 2 with a bunch of herbs and butter. A pan of cornbread stuffing and mashed taters.
SOUNDS delicious CW!

Happy Heart of Winter! We're into the thick of winter now folks and a very cold shot of air is coming here. I'm trying to hang on to the "normal" cold right now while I can. But today is a big day because we have a MILESTONE. We have reached Tom Turkey Day #2! Woohoo! It's here folks already #2 of 11. And here are the official counts for today: 301 days till Thanksgiving, 277 days till November, and 216 days till The Bers. TOMORROW believe it or not is another milestone and a HUGE one as we reach the 300 Day Marker to Thanksgiving. It will be the FINAL time we see a "3s" count in this thread...EVER! To celebrate Tom Turkey Day #2 here is a special bi-weekly poll that we post here every other Thursday. See below.

When it comes to Thanksgiving the following 4 things are what most people think about: Food, Football, Family, Parade. Put those 4 in order from most important to you to least important to you on Thanksgiving Day.

For me it would be the following: Family, Food, Parade, Football. It's very close though. I could almost put food last only because I take it for granted. I love the parade and having football on almost equally on Thanksgiving. This poll was too difficult for me to answer! Have a great Heart of Winter!​
 
Family, Food, Parade, Football sounds about right to me.

So due to my TiVo messing up I never did get to see last year's parade. I was able to secure a copy this week though, so that'll be my celebratory viewing this morning.
 
I agree with that order, Edge.

On a side note - OMG we are standing on the edge of a milestone. It is so exciting! We hit 300 days to Thanksgiving, here, TOMORROW! What a happy Friday it will be indeed!
 
Happy Milestone Day!

Family, Food, Parade, Football!

Can't wait for Thanksgiving this year....I hope we are able to celebrate with everyone in my family!
