Everything is frozen and dead by the end of October. It is currently -35C (-31F) here, plus ten degrees of windchill or so.

Edit: And it's going to stay that way until mid-April.

Last night it was about 20 degrees, and all I could think was "this is what space feels like."  I was absolutely sure.

Cannot imagine -35.

I don't think I could live in so much snow, and I lived in snow for many years already (yes, So Cal mountains actually have (some) snow for about 5 months out of the year!).

I am hostess extraordinaire this month, so we're deep-frying turkey and having all the usual trimmings plus boozie-booze tomorrow.  Now if only my BACK would cooperate and quit seizing up with the little bit of chilly weather we've been having here (30-40'F temps at night is pretty cold for down here).

I actually wish I lived in the USA... but we had Thanksgiving first.

I'm thankful that despite the bullshit with the TSA, Canada and the US are still two of the freest countries in the world.

Oh, and its still well above the freezing point in Toronto... I'm also thankful for that.

Cold and rainly holiday for us here in the midwest.  Not that we do anything besides stuff ourselves and watch football anyway!!!

Just doing the usual, turkey, taters, stuffing, pie......  need something green.....  haven't decided yet.

Green bean casserole! DUH!

Is that the one made with something like Cream of Mushroom soup?  Or different?

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

Yes.

It's like crack and it's absolute garbage food...which is probably why my mom never made it for us. However, every time I'm at someone else's house for Thanksgiving and they DO make it, it typically results in a feeding frenzy. Last year GS, his brother-in-law, his nephew, and myself got stoned off our gourds and accidentally the whole thing. Twice.

Me too.  It must have been created by Xenu.

I know I know but I just can't make myself eat it.  Green beans are supposed to be crisp and still green, not slimy and milky and I can't help it I've hated it since I was a kid. 

My kids love the stuff, I just get clammy and gaggy thinking about it.

I'll end up making it though, just sort of hoped someone might have a better suggestion I could try other than the regular green veggie side dishes....
