Happy Thanksgiving... - cjs - 10-09-2009

Canadian Thanksgiving, that is for all our Canadian friends. Do we have more than one on here? and she's an ex-patriot. Lorraine, does this mean you get two from now on?

And we ARE thankful for all our Canadian friends. Here's hoping they have a wonderful Thanksgiving Day!

BTW, Jean, there's a big difference between an ex-patriot and an expatriate!

well duh...blame it on..........................I can't think of what to blame that on.

ROTLF! Don't fret. It's a common mistake because of the sound - the same as when people spell "calendar" as "calender." Of course, spell-checking software misses such things because the incorrect spellings of the intended words are the correct spellings for something unintended (e.g. look up the definition of "calender").

Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

You know, I don't think I've ever heard or seen that word- calender - before today! But considering that it is such a foreign concept, I guess I shouldn't be so surprised.

Thanks, folks. Yup, we get to eat double the turkey, always a good thing. It's very hard to find a fresh turkey around these parts in October though. We had planned on brining it first, and doing the traditional Canadian side dishes (very different from those served her). but I didn't feel well, so ate a frozen version. Better than no turkey at all, and no clean up.
