So, this song will no only destroy this thread, but it will only help destroy society. Seriously...it's even worse because you get this noise stuck in your head! This new pop music shizzle is ridiculous! It sticks in your head! At least I ruined someone elses day!

 

By the way, this definately means I do not win...ever.

I really, really, like being able to see the Youtube video on the page now before I might click it. :thumbsup:

 

Has anyone else seen the "Marney Letter"?

 

http://awkwardfamilyphotos.com/2009/11/26/awkward-family-story-the-thanksgiving-letter/

 

From: Marney

 

As you all know a fabulous Thanksgiving Dinner does not make itself. I need to ask each of you to help by bringing something to complete the meal. I truly appreciate your offers to assist with the meal preparation.

 

Now, while I do have quite a sense of humor and joke around all the time, I COULD NOT BE MORE SERIOUS when I am providing you with your Thanksgiving instructions and orders. I am very particular, so please perform your task EXACTLY as I have requested and read your portion very carefully. If I ask you to bring your offering in a container that has a lid, bring your offering in a container WITH A LID, NOT ALUMINUM FOIL! If I ask you to bring a serving spoon for your dish, BRING A SERVING SPOON, NOT A SOUP SPOON! And please do not forget anything.

 

All food that is to be cooked should already be prepared, bring it hot and ready to serve, warm or room temp. These are your ONLY THREE options. Anything meant to be served cold should, of course, already be cold.

 

HJB—Dinner wine

 

The Mike Byron Family

1. Turnips in a casserole with a lid and a serving spoon. Please do not fill the casserole all the way up to the top, it gets too messy. I know this may come as a bit of a surprise to you, but most of us hate turnips so don’t feel like you a have to feed an army.

2. Two half gallons of ice cream, one must be VANILLA, I don’t care what the other one is. No store brands please. I did see an ad this morning for Hagan Daz Peppermint Bark Ice Cream, yum!! (no pressure here, though).

3. Toppings for the ice cream.

4. A case of bottled water, NOT gallons, any brand is ok.

The Bob Byron Family

1. Green beans or asparagus (not both) in a casserole with a lid and a serving spoon. If you are making the green beans, please prepare FOUR pounds, if you are making asparagus please prepare FIVE pounds. It is up to you how you wish to prepare them, no soupy sauces, no cheese (you know how Mike is), a light sprinkling of toasted nuts, or pancetta, or some EVOO would be a nice way to jazz them up.

2. A case of beer of your choice (I have Coors Light and Corona) or a bottle of clos du bois chardonnay (you will have to let me know which you will bring prior to 11/22).

The Lisa Byron Chesterford Family

1. Lisa as a married woman you are now required to contribute at the adult level. You can bring an hors d’ouvres. A few helpful hints/suggestions. Keep it very light, and non-filling, NO COCKTAIL SAUCE, no beans of any kind. I think your best bet would be a platter of fresh veggies and dip. Not a huge platter mind you (i.e., not the plastic platter from the supermarket).

The Michelle Bobble Family

1. Stuffing in a casserole with a serving spoon. Please make the stuffing sans meat.

2. 2.5-3 qts. of mashed squash in a casserole with a lid and serving spoon

3. Proscuitto pin wheel – please stick to the recipe, no need to bring a plate.

4. A pie knife

The June Davis Family

1. 15 LBS of mashed potatoes in a casserole with a serving spoon. Please do not use the over-size blue serving dish you used last year. Because you are making such a large batch you can do one of two things: put half the mash in a regulation size casserole with lid and put the other half in a plastic container and we can just replenish with that or use two regulation size casserole dishes with lids. Only one serving spoon is needed.

2. A bottle of clos du bois chardonnay

 

The Amy Misto Family (why do I even bother she will never read this)

1. A pumpkin pie in a pie dish (please use my silver palate recipe) no knife needed.

2. An apple pie in a pie dish, you can use your own recipe, no knife needed.

 

Looking forward to the 28th!!

 

Marney

 

The last thing this woman should want is anything at the party that might get anyone drunk enough to tell her what they really think of her.

 

Read the comments some of them are hysterical! :w00t:

On jury duty today - yipppeee. I've worn my "I support the death penalty for all infractions" t-shirt so maybe they will let me off. If that does not work I'll put on a turbin and start shouting "implement sharia law today!!!" Check me out on CNN later. :rolleyes:

I really hope that when I get called in for jury duty that the defendant's a minority. I'll just claim that I'm racist and get off duty right way.

I did jury duty and it's very interesting. When they were interviewing potential jurors they allowed people to leave without giving a reason. I got paid for jury leave so it wasn't the financial hit some face.

Yeah I served on a criminal trial a couple of years ago. It was mildly interesting but mostly sad for the guy who was charged. I'm luck because I'll have no financial impact from the result of the service. I felt really baad the last time I served because one of the guys on the jury could not even afford to buy himself lunch. He was really nice and took the process seriously but you could tell it hurt him and his family in the wallet.

 

I guess if nothing else it gave me some perspective on how good I really have it in life.
