I heard a radio ad for a gun company selling to Californians…..the ad actually said “So buy NOW, avoid the holiday rush with all the crazies!”
Would that mean CRAZY GUN BUYERS? CRAZY? I thought they could have left that term out, don’t you?

https://tunnel2towers.org/The chief danger that confronts the coming century will be religion without the Holy Ghost,
Christianity without Christ, forgiveness without repentance, salvation without regeneration,
politics without God, heaven without hell.
William Booth“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.”
― William SaroyanThe inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of the blessings. The inherent blessing of socialism is the equal sharing of misery. -- Winston Churchill
Ignorance is not an opinion, liberals
I believe in Christianity as I believe the sun has risen; not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else. C. S. Lewis
if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

GeeeZ .... 
Well, since I no longer do the cookin as I did for muchos años and as the patriarch could put anything on my plate I wanted, I’m gonna hafta go with “ever’thang.”
And surprisingly, I kept the portions sensibly small and din’t overdo it.
Gotta say, tho, that my D-I-L makes one fine sweet-tater dish, from scratch, with melted marshmallers ‘n’ pecans on top. Nothin like the much-too-sweet concoction I always do up from canned yams (which DOES go great, however, with leftover stuffing and the last of the cranberries ‘n’ ham ‘long ’bout Sunday afternoon).
AND . . . I larned a neat trick last nite. Milady bought a panini grill
https://www.bestbuy.com/site/oster-duraceramic-2-in-1-electric-panini-maker-grill-charcoal/4918002.p?skuId=4918002&ref=06&loc=01&ksid=0a84b51f-d819-47de-8f9f-24e3f6c2bb36&ksprof_id=13&ksaffcode=pg268450&ksdevice=c
So last nite, feelin a bit peckish since we had dinner around 1430 or so, I fired up the thing and squeezed a sizeable wad of mashed taters on it. Left it for 6 minutes with the lid down, then opened it up when the steam quit comin out.
PERFECT potato pancake. Crisp, brown, and evenly cooked. Oughta be great for latkes. Today I’m gonna try some of the leftover sweet taters on it. If it don’t work, dawgs’ll eat it, right?

Well, from what I read about California Gun Laws there couldn’t possibly be a “rush” by “crazies” ; at least in the sense of Black Friday at Macy’s. Yes, a stupid ad indeed!

Bocopro, I’m not huge on sweet potatoes but our niece did the same thing…from scratch, pecans and marshmallows on top. Thankfully, the actual sweet potato part wasn’t overly sweet.
I’d say ANYTHING would be good on that mashed potato panini!!!
Ed…rumaki with LIVERS? That, I can’t eat, but I do make a fabulous bacon wrapped dates that you bake….taking them to Mom’s Tree Trimming party in 2 weeks.
Jerry! I’m so glad you agree, too…REALLY TERRIBLE AD!!! I was stopped in my tracks while cooking yesterday when I heard that on the radio. “Just how awful can an ad BE!?” 🙂

This woman I’ve been livin with for the past 55 years or so likes to thin slice sweet potatoes and cook ’em up like potato chips. All our kids liked ’em, too. Our D-I-L uses a mandolin to slice ’em, then deep fries ’em in good ol’ fashioned lard.
It’s an o.k. change, I reckon, but I don’t even care much for ordinary tater chips. I can’t remember the last time I bought a bag of chips — prolly 25 years or so back, and then only for a party we were either havin or goin to.
My dogs absolutely love sweet tater chunks, fried, broiled, baked, whatever. Nice treat for ’em, and vet approved.

Bocopro…sweet potato chips ROCK….I LOVE them. I bake them so’s to escape the oil, and it’s easier 🙂 They don’t get AS crisp but they’re delicious.
I LOVE ordinary ‘tater’ chips….I could eat them all day, all night!
I had to toss my mandolin out, the one I brought from Paris, because I was kind of afraid of it….My girlfriend cooks so much her husband used to say he had 911 on speed dial in case she cut her hand again!

Please don’t read that link if you can’t stand the allegations against Trump about his own sexual harassing, BUT I found fascinating and so typical that the article mentions how Billy and Alex Baldwin are huge Trump haters (no surprise to anybody) and how Trump hit on Billy’s soon-to-be wife years ago …but never mentions their Republican brother Steven, who’s a supporter.
The media’s so unhinged it just cracks me up.

Baysider, you mentioned “Friendsgiving” yesterday and I’d never heard it used as you described it…mostly, it’s just FRIENDS who have family Thanksgivings but want to also be with friends the next day…nothing political. As a matter of fact, the young couple who invited me today are strong Conservatives…. Horrible if that’s true about public schools using it instead of Thanksgiving.
GLad you had that ‘normal’ time….what’s she stuff her mushrooms WITH that they’re better than the dinner!? I’m eager to hear!

Sad is how accounts I’ve been reading this morning on Squanto say his goodness and help to the colonists has been exaggerated and he isn’t the ‘noble savage’ he’s thought to be.

I don’t know the stuffing. It was just good I brought an excellent ham, Mr. B made his hallmark raw cranberry relish, and we had green beans, quinoa pilaf and brussel sprouts along with stunning appetizer plates — at my nephew’s place. When stepson comes this week I’ll do a 2nd round, and make our FAVORITE pecan brandied fig pie. 🙂

Yea, crazies seems like a crazy word to put in there.
The turkey was really good this year, but I like the whole enchilada. Mashed potato, sweet potato medallions with melted butter and brown sugar on top, stuffing, gravy on everything except sweet potato, and Mad customizes it all. No room for pie yesterday.
