However, Thanksgiving is pretty traditional at my mom and dads house. Turkey, Cornbred dressing, bread stuffing (my sister married a yankee so this is a concession to him but its good so...) baked ham, yams, green bean caserole ....4 or 5 deserts etc...

Re: Thanksgiving Plans?

I have all of Eddie's family(10) at my house Wednesday (10) and all of my family (14) on Thursday. Then I leave at 2 AM on Saturday for Belize.

I'm a tad bit stressed. LOL

Now... I'm not going to fret it too much because I like making my own roux... but I was amazed to find that you can't buy roux anywhere around here in Arkansas. I'd been spoiled by Texas & Louisiana stores.

Walmart... Kroger... none of them carry roux up here in Arkansas.

Re: Thanksgiving Plans?

My Sister and I are running a Half Marathon on the 27th, and she is trying to lose weight for her Donny Osmond Cruise (yes she is a Donny Osmond Groupie)

so, we are having an organic, free range, hormone free turkey breast. Stuffing made with Ezekiel bread, basically, it's all going to be healthy stuff.

That is just nuts! I would make a stink!

It was shocking to me when we moved to Dallas and they didnt carry pistolets.

For those that dont know, it is a type of roll we have in Louisiana. We stuff it with etouffee and deep fry.


Ive gotten lazy in the last couple years. I buy roux more often than not but I will still make a pot or two of gumbo a year where i make the roux.

I guess it's how easily that I am amused that keeps me making my own roux because it's a hassle making roux but it's worth it all when I spoon it in and see roux making boiling water boil more. I LOVE that part.

Roux is a mixture of cooking oil & flour that is cooked down to the desired color and added to dishes such as gumbo. It adds color & taste and thickens up the gumbo somewhat.

Gumbo is just soup without roux.

That's just sad. I am trying to gain weight, so I will eat as much as possible.
