SIL is hosting this year. I've been assigned:
* Stuffing (outside the bird). I prepare it country style making it with cornbread, a sleeve of crackers, a loaf of toasted bread, cooked celery, onions, and sage. They were all used to the bread cubes in a bag stuffing but that tradition has fallen by the wayside :wink:
* Aspargus
* Cake and Pie - I'm thinking of a Derby Pie and a carrot cake but have not decided. Buttermilk pie may be in the running if I get the recipe :-)

PREGNANT TURKEY

Here's a good holiday story for families getting together.

One year at Christmas my mom went to my sister's house for the
traditional feast. Knowing how gullible my sister is, my mom decided
to play a trick. She told my sister that she needed something from the
store.

When my sister left, my mom took the turkey out of the oven, removed
the stuffing, stuffed a Cornish hen, and inserted it into the turkey, and
re-stuffed the turkey. She then placed the bird(s) back in the oven.

When it was time for dinner, my sister pulled the turkey out of the oven
and proceeded to remove the stuffing. When her serving spoon
hit something, she reached in and pulled out the little bird.

With a look of total shock on her face, my mother exclaimed,
"Patricia, you've cooked a pregnant bird!" At the reality of this
horrifying news, my sister started to cry. It took the family two
hours to convince her that turkeys lay eggs!
