Recipes from Todays Show and Tips with Timelines for the week! Enjoy!
It’s kinda funny. I get asked… Are you cooking for Thanksgiving? Honestly, I think it has been 25 years since I cooked for the exact day of Thanksgiving. I teach pie baking for weeks prior, so many will enjoy the art of perfect pies. I jump on TV on morning shows from Thanksgiving Sides to How to fix your turkey. For 8 years, every Thanksgiving I was on a ship. A few years ago I got a call from Holland America on Wednesday before Thanksgiving with a panic. “ Are you in SoCal? Any chance you can jump on a ship tomorrow for 6 days out to the South Pacific .. We will fly you anywhere you need to go? So drove early Thanksgiving morning to the docks of San Diego and passed about 6 WalMarts with lines out the parking lot for those $100 TV Sets.. I sailed into in Tahiti almost a week later after teaching classes and lectures. Flew home from the island.. A few times I was in London for the holiday… Mom asked, where are you going to have Thanksgiving? Well Mom.. they don’t celebrate it.. Something about us leaving the Mother Ship…
