Turkey in the Straw Great Song n Dance!
The oft-repeated turkey myth stems from the fact that turkey contains the amino acid tryptophan, which forms the basis of brain chemicals that make people tired. But turkey isn't any more sleep-inducing than other foods.
Current, modern meal plan . . .
order the turkey pieces from any butcher: Sometimes Smith's has thighs or can call Marianas Supermarket 702 894 9090
First, I usually serve the salad and drink = cranberry
Next, serve the main meal = turkey thighs and pumpkin bread; you could add legs and wings depending on number attending feast
green beans and stuffing are served with the main meal
pour gravy over meat, veggies and stuffing
Lastly, I serve the desert = brownies
Sometimes, I get energetic and prepare an after-dinner-warm-drink!
I like this wolf song, do you? When do you give thanks; before, during or after the meal? Fun idea: go around the Thanksgiving table and say what you appreciate most about the person to your right. Even if you don’t know someone well, it’s a great opportunity to give a compliment and spread the holiday cheer!
Have you taught the kids the Thanksgiving poem, prayer and song?
