I posted this on another thread about TG day culinary mishaps, but I thought I would share it here too cause it is so funny!
One year my Mom came a day early to help me prepare TG dinner cause I was having 21 people that year. On TG morning, we got up very early to get the massive turkey in the oven so it would be ready by early afternoon. She had just put a coating of vegetable oil all over the huge bird and rubbed it in meticulously so that it was all covered (makes for a perfectly browned skin, try it!) and then she asked me where my salt and pepper were. I told her that I had a container of kosher salt (I use that exclusively when I cook) in a bowl in the cabinet next to the stove and the pepper mill was on the back of the stove.
Well, she did not ask which cupboard I meant and went in the right one instead of the left. I keep baking supplies in the right one. She pulled a container out that contained GRANULATED SUGAR and completely coated the bird with it. Then she added pepper. When the bird came out, it was VERY brown, almost black and kind of gooey looking skin...LOL.
Everyone LOVED it and thought the skin was the best part. Said it was sweet and nutty tasting. I realized what she had done as soon as I tasted it. I said "Mom, what cupboard did you take the salt from" and she pointed to my baking cupboard!
It all worked out in the end.
Then there was the Xmas eve at my Mom's when the septic tank backed up and we had a house full of guests and it smelled like a sewer at our house..LOL
Gotta love the holidays!

Great picture of Alyson and Chrissyb!
Ducky.....that story always makes me laugh! Kids say the darnedest things. They are always so honest.
Such a funny story April! It's nice when mishaps turn out well.
Here is my funny story I posted on that thread.
My Mother had an injured fingernail that was always discolored. She was very self conscious about it and always wore a bandaid to cover it up. One year we sat down to dinner and she realized the bandaid was missing. Of course the great mystery was what dish it had fallen into. It ended up in the stuffing. She also made bandaid meatballs once. I'm sure that's why I'm so anal about my kitchen. I always use plastic gloves for anything that requires hand mixing. Oh the childhood trauma!
I sure do miss my Mom. I have so many funny stories about her. She was a hoot.
Kracker....I feel crappy today too. No time to rest though. We put up our outside Christmas lights.

Hundreds and hundreds of ppl will be prayin for U

Gma, Praying for you! I stayed overnight after my lumpectomy/reduction/lift surgery, too. I didn't want to, but the hospital bed was a Godsend. I could sleep in a reclined position, which was much easier with my wrapped breasts. I could raise the head of the hospital bed to help me get out of bed and to the bathroom.
Big hugs sent your way! We will be in your pocket this entire week!

I ended up with chills and a cough last night. My body aches all over. What am I going to do? Very sad. Hoping I can pass through this bug quickly. Should I call the surgeon's office and reschedule or give it another day? I have to have it done by the 31st or insurance won't pay for it. I don't know if he has any more openings.

G'ma, give it a day or so. Could be partly nerves fueling this bug. Hugs and hope it works out for you!

Gma, I will be thinking of you and praying all goes well for you.

I took some homeopathic flu stuff hoping it would move me through the process quicker. Seemed to do the trick.. Went from scratchy throat and postnasal drip to fever and cough in less than 4 hours.
