or is that Happy Spanksgiving?
Best wishes to all. If you’re in the US, have a very happy Thanksgiving. And if you’re from outside the States, have a joyful weekend, holiday or not. :)
I’m in the middle of making the apple crisp, pumpkin pie, and chocolate eclairs I’m bringing for dessert and soon it will be time to join the family for our feast. A time to give thanks, enjoy good food and good company, and do everything I can to avoid coming in contact with the green bean casserole. *shudders*
Eeeep!

Pixie,
As I already said in an email message, I’m also saying here for others to read:
You’re one of the things I’m thankful for!!
I’m going to a family get together in a little bit, but I wanted to check in with my other circle of friends.
Happy Thanksgiving to all!!

Happy Spanksgiving, Pixie! I’m with you… I admit, I happen to love green beans. But green bean/mushroom casserole is DISGUSTING. Yup, nothing says “Thanksgiving feast” like greasy canned fried onion topping. Did the Pilgrims have can openers?
Enjoy your feast, and your weekend.

We had a pretty good Thanksgiving although it was just the two of us and a friend from work. I wouldn’t have much to write except that Angel set the back yard on fire trying to fry a turkey. I was inside at the time but … you KNOW who got blamed for not taking it out of the fridge earlier and causing the oil to boil over. The turkey was saved anyway but we ended up having a happy Spanksgiving after our guest went home.

Hope your family Thanksgiving went well. Your handprint turkey is brilliant - how long did it take you to work that one out? (We save our Turkeys for Christmas, but it is not my favourite dish). I have not come across a green bean casserole and cannot work out frm te photo what is is. Is it just green beans? Or what are they casseroled with? (I love green beans).

My worst food horror is Jello with ANY sort of vegetable suspended in it. The Pilgrims never served that sort of culinary nightmare.
November 28th, 2008 - 6:13 am
With you, my dear, it’s always a very Happy Spanksgiving!
Love the turkey hand logo, did you design it, or have a hand (pun intended) in the creative process?
November 28th, 2008 - 6:22 am
Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Spanksgiving, Pixie! I’m sure your desserts went over in a big way!
I had a very nice dinner at my mother’s place–82 and she still cooked up a whole Thanksgiving dinner (with a little help from my sister)–and yes, that included the dreaded casserole. Thankfully, my plate was full of turkey, stuffing, mashed potates and gravy, corn, dinner roll, and olives and there was just no room for some green bean concoction……
I hope you had a happy day!

Hope you had a great day. Our family does the version of green bean casserole that involves dumping cream of mushroom over canned green beans, then adding canned French’s fried onions to the top and baking till onions are browned. Sad thing is, there are those in my family who think this qualifies as “a serving of vegetables.” My sister-in-law usually brings this, so suddenly it’s become “her” green bean casserole.

A note all vanilla purists:
all these messages show that spankos are actually
quite the same as everyone else……….
Peace and Love!

27th of November happens to be my Birthday, so all the more reason to be happy!
Thank you for creating (with David and Eric) such a wonderful site. I’ve been a member from the beginning and still like what I see.
You’re a plain gorgeous young woman, who dares to share her spanking feelings in an open and honest way. Which is much appreciated.
Thank you for being who you are and sharing that with us…
Love and XXX, Funbun

Bye Bye

Our Thanksgiving plans took a detour when our reduced family got an unexpected message that our host family lost an elderly mom overseas and our hostess was off to the Orient. We improvised, went to a good art movie, had a fancy hotel restaurant dinner and will remember the day for a long time!

I agree with you on the green bean casserole. The worst is when the white sauce is made from lard or bacon grease.
I’ll have to disagree with the previous poster about jello, though. “Congealed salad” is one of the South’s culinary masterpieces. There’s just nothing like red jello with marshmallows, walnuts, and canned peaches suspended in it, served on a leaf of lettuce. It’s only a matter of time before some trendy NYC restaurant starts serving this for dessert.

You are a bad influence…discouraging people from eating their green beans! Tsk! You know you’re a role model. Btw, I passed on them myself this year.
I think it’s clever how you and other bloggers re-named the holiday. I was wondering if anyone else was nervous that they may slip in vanilla company and call the holiday “spanksgiving”? I am glad it’s over so I can stop worrying….but I am not in the clear yet and hope I don’t slip at work on Monday when politely asking, “So how was your Spanks…er…Thanksgiving?” 2Good

Green beans are good…I had some on Thursday…but green bean casserole…blech.
I hope your Thanksgiving went well. And to respond to your comment in the last thread…awww, thanks
Honestly, I’m not sure I’ve ever had a turkey drumstick, although homemade apple crisp sounds wonderful. The big hit in my family was the bread pudding.
So…did your hubby make his own “turkeys” on your backside for Turkey day?
November 30th, 2008 - 8:48 am
pixie many spanks thanks for the video of p.b.special very nice with plenty of pretty botties spanked very well made did you design it /? look forward to the next storyline film love from tim.

007 - Thank you! I hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving too.
Spanky - I’m so glad! Many spanks to you.
dani - Thank you. I’m so happy that the blog gives you such joy. I hope you had a wonderful time with your family.
Steve - Yep. Give thanks and then give spanks.
Tim - And best wishes to you as well.
Prefectdt - It is an unusual tradition I suppose if you really look at the origins, but it is a nice time to gather with friends and family and enjoy a good meal. A very, very large good meal. Oofah.
Erica - There was literally a vat of the green bean casserole. I made sure to sit on the opposite end of the table from it. I don’t think the Pilgrims could have imagined that dish in their wildest dreams.
Jean - Hope you had a good Thanksgiving too. The desserts turned out well (thank goodness!!) depsite my dropping the first pie crust and shattering it into dust.
Duncan - Hope you had a good holiday as well.
Linde - A turkey fire!! Oh no! That will certainly make for a long lasting holiday memory. And I’m sure your toasted buns will be a long lasting memory as well.
Winchester - I have to give credit to the local elementary school for the handprint turkey. I kept seeing them in the windows of the school and it gave me the idea.
Green bean casserole is basically canned green beans and canned condensed mushroom soup mixed with a little milk and topped with canned fried onions. :-S
Tony - My dad tells childhood horror stories about being served tomato aspic made of lemon Jello and canned stewed tomatoes. Thankfully he chose not to keep that one as a family tradition.
D - Yep, I made it in photoshop on Thanksgiving Eve. It was fun. Like a little digital craft project.
Dr. Ken - No room for the green beans? What a terrible shame. *cough*
sandy - Yep! That’s the same casserole that my in-laws make. Thank goodness there were plenty of other veggies including broccoli, cauliflower, squash, and brussel sprouts so I made sure I got my servings of veggies without having to touch a bean.
Funbun - I hope you had a fantastic birthday!!! Best wishes to you.
Ed - Thank you! There are quite a lot of really wonderful blogs out there that I nose around daily, but I’m glad that you enjoy mine as well.
Brad - I’m sorry to hear about your original holiday plans not working out and the unfortunate circumstances. But the day you ended up having sounds quite nice.
Southern Expat - A sweet jello salad like you described doesn’t sound bad at all. But I don’t think I’d want veggies floating in the gelatin like Tony mentioned.
2Good - Oh no. I’d like to encourage people to eat green beans. Eat lots and lots so there is none left for me!
Jai - I will happily ship any and all green beans that cross my path directly to you.
otk1959 - Life is short. Eat dessert first. And skip the veggies.
hairbrushman - Be thankful if you’re spankful?
JC - oooh bread pudding. I haven’t had that in a while. I will have to see if I can find a yummy recipe and make a batch for a special treat on a cold winter night.
Tim - Eric made the holiday video clip so all the credit goes deservedly to him! Glad you enjoyed it.
