I went surfing white water kayaking and motorbiking. Beat that mr evo! :D

I love guys days.
 
Took my kid to the doctor, cleaned out my car, ate some popcorn. S

Whatchya doin' for thanksgiving?

Ummmm...cooking for the entire family. I've never cooked a turkey before, so I want to give it a shot. I also want my dad to check out the house I'm planning on moving into to see what he thinks.

How's the kiddo?
 
Do you know how to cook a turkey? Do you need any recipes? I'm a pretty good cook so if you have any questions lemme know.

Welll...if yer gonna be up late tonight...;)

All I know is you put it in the oven and wait for the red button to pop out. I've got a handle on everything else as I love to cook. However, I'm just not really overly fond of turkey for the most part. I wanted to do a mediterranean dish as the main course, but my family thought I was crazy and went into an uproar and demanded turkey lest I be linched. Dad's bringing home-cooked tamales though for me.
 
I think you might want to get on IM if you're going to be on the computer long... ;)

The easiest way is just to get a pan and a bag and toss it in. Might want to put a rub on it or something. Are you doing any sort of stuffing?

Yup on the stuffing. And check your PMs
 
Hey, have you considered smoking the turkey? It's sooo good that way. Fried is also absolutely awesome, but that's not exactly the healthiest way to cook it.

So, are you cooking the whole meal? What all are you cooking?

If I could grill the turkey, I would. :D

I'm making-stuffing, pea salad, green bean casserole, pumpkin pie, sweet potatoe pie, turkey, broccoli salad, fruit tray, vegetable tray, and cottage cheese w/sliced peaches and pears.
 
Oh yeah, deep fried turkey is good stuff

What kind of stuffing

I'm making a jalapeno corn bread stuffing.

Sorry about last night-my exwife decided she wanted to bring the girls down early and her car quit on her last night. So I had to drive out of town to get the girls while a tow truck hauled her and her car back. She lives 1.5 hours away, so it turned into a nice little late-night trip.
 
Ummm...well, I can't beat that today. However, when summer rolls around and I'm getting paid for 12 weeks off and hanging out at the coast...then we'll talk. ;)

How big are you Evo?
Anything under 240lbs and I think I'll get a flight over there and give you good slap ;)

lol...I'll be waiting for you then. When I weighed myself yesterday, I was sitting at 204. But I hope to be 240 after Thanksgiving. ;)
 
Lol, I'm sure he won't mind you sharing that with everyone, it makes me feel a bit better about his 12 weeks paid holiday :p

I thought 204 sounded a bit light for Evo's build
 
Heh. I ditched my last class so I can have an early weekend, though my car broke down 3/4ths of the way back home. Karma?
 
Went to work.

Im cooking a turkey for the second straight year. Got a nice 20lb turkey to cook. Plenty of leftovers for me.

Evo Ive been eating Raisin Bran with Oat bran for breakfast since we talked about the breakfast options. F'n awesome.
 
Lifted today. Didn't work as much as I should have. Saw a friend who was in for holidays - went shopping because no clothes fit me. Bought only 1 thing, because I hate shopping, no clothes fit me, and I can't deal with it for more than a short period of time.

Tomorrow afternoon & evening are busy with turkey & friends.

Question is: Do I "add" a workout in the AM?

Normally, I would be playing hockey, but I'm not.

Options are:
(1) Add a HIIT day to replace cardio in hockey;
(2) Do something active outside (run, bike, blade, etc.) just to get out;
(3) Add some "surprise" shock-your-muscles lifting day, even though I lifted today & will lift on Friday; or
(4) Take a bonus rest day, since I've only had 1 in the past 19 days.
 
I wish I was 6'. I think more nations of the world would love me then.

That + taller people have harder heads than shot people. This is because of evolution. Taller people bump their head into a lot of things and only the ones with hard skulls survive to pass on their genes. :D :p

If that's true, then should we be concerned that the air isn't as oxygen-rich up there as it is down here?
