P.S. My mom used to make turnip greens, ever have Okra? I've got a funny story about Okra, my sisternlaw mistakenly asked her butcher for Okra from a list that my brother gave her to go and buy at the store, and she thought it was a whale. The butcher told her to go to the produce isle, nonetheless she's NOT from the south!
Well, here I am; better late than never, Jim! It sounds as though you were off to have a very good Thanksgiving! MotherCountry looks wonderful. I LOVE all those pies you mentioned. All that sounds great, but I have never had turnip greens. Pot liquor does not sound good to this Canadian's ears, I am afraid.
Hey Lana. I understand about being behind. It's impossible to keep up with everyone isn't it? We did have some delicious food. I hope you had a nice holiday as well. -Jim
Happy Thanksgiving Jim! I'm really glad our paths cross this 2007--I hope we can meet in 2008. It sounds like he had LOTS of great food to eat! That buttermilk pie sounds great!
I had a day with lots of food that revolved around watching a Packer win yesterday ! Woot!!
Hi Gary. We had a great Thanksgiving. I'm afraid I didn't get to see much of that Packer game. It kind of funny that you had to watch football and probably didn't want to and I wanted to and didn't get to. LOL It was great getting to chat with you in Martha's stickam room last night. That was the first time I've had the chance to chat with you, Josh and Beth. Very cool. I can't wait to meet all you guys in person next year! -Jim
Hi Jim...thanks for introducing us to your mother. She certainly has patience with her son talking bad about her "d***m" turnip greens.....and I happen to be one of those rednecks that likes potlikker n cornbread ☺☺☺ Sounds like you had a great family Thanksgiving.
Hey Ann. Well I'm afraid I'm the only southerner that doesn't eat turnip greens! LOL We did have a nice Thanksgiving. I hope you had a nice holiday as well. Thanks for watching! -Jim
Sounds like you will have had a busy day. I DO hope it was pleasant, peaceful and relaxing for you. So While at this point it was yesterday I STILL hope you had a HAPPY THANKSGIVING. Cheers mate.
Hey TonyDi. It was a great day to see lots of family I don't get to see much throughout the year. I hope you guys had a nice holiday. Enjoy the weekend. -Jim
Whatsnext is your sister? Oh maybe I knew that, Im not sure. I wish my mother could bake like mother country does, i tell ya. That all sounds good. Turnip greens, potliquor, and cornbread all sounds delicious.
Hey Tom. Yea Whatsnext or SisterCountry as I call her is my sister. I'm afraid I got her hooked on YouTube! LOL The food was all great and I ate way too much. Thanks for watching. -Jim
Hey Jim. Well as far as I'm concerned you haven't missed anything in the turnip greens but all these other southern folks seem to love them. LOL Thanks for watching and Happy Thanksgiving to you as well! -Jim
Hey Beth. Yea they ended up getting the cabin and it's a great cozy get away. I think they will enjoy it and before they bought it, I said oh that has to be the official AlabamaTube cabin! LOL Happy Thanksgiving Beth. -Jim
Hey Sue. I told Mother Country that she has more energy than all of us. She's 79 and I wish I had half of her energy! LOL Thanks for watching. Happy Thanksgiving. -Jim
Hey Angie. Yea I've been on a diet getting ready for all the weight I'll gain from today! LOL Thanks for watching me and Mother Country autovlogging. -Jim
Hi kopkitty. Thanks you for that. I'll be sure to tell her she has a big kiss all the way from Brazil. She' quite amazed that all these people are watching us! LOL -Jim
Hi Lee. She really did lots of baking and it was all great. I'll let you have my share of the greens. Everyone was raving over them and wanted to know the secret to which I blurted out fat-back. LOL Happy Thanksgiving. -Jim
Hi Bea. Can you believe she's 79? She has more energy than all of us. LOL We did have sweet potatoes. The food I mention was just my mother's contribution to the table. LOL Thanks for watching! -Jim
Hey SunnyDazStormyNitz. Yea the pies are made from scratch and wonderful. I agree with the Yuck on the greens! LOL Thanks for watching and Happy Thanksgiving. -Jim
Thank you Nancy. I really appreciate you watching. I almost said Happy Thanksgiving but you guys already had your didn't you? So, I'll say enjoy the weekend. LOL -Jim
Mmmmmm, pot liquor and cornbread. I'm salivating just thinking about it! I bet she can cook a hell of a New Year's Day meal. When are you going to have the weigh in? LOL
Marty they gobble up every once of those greens and pot liquor. LOL If we had a weigh in, the scales would scream one at a time please! LOL Happy Thanksgiving. -Jim
Ruthe I'm as full as a tick! The desserts were all out of this world and yes I had a piece of all of them. LOL Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. -Jim
Hey Martha. Luckily we had the greens wrapped up because they did spill out. LOL Holly cow I just noticed that Atlanta is up 10 to O. Well we both know that won't last! LOL Happy Thanksgiving to you and Solie. -Jim
Mmmm, buttermilk pie! That is some killer rich stuff. Mmmm, pot likker and cornbread--the best. Have your Mom adopt me. Hope ya'll had a wonderful day.
Wow! way to go Mom country!You sounded really busy this morning:)Im from Maine and haven't heard of alot of what was mentioned..We had turkey,potatoes,sweet potatoes,cranberrysauce,bannana cream pie,choc.cream pie,and rolls..(pretty basic)up North here..lol
