About
BY JILL DAVIS
Happy Thanksgiving! This year
we celebrate on November 28.
That’s later than usual, which is
good. It gives us more time to
ruin the meal.
For those who feel challenged
on Thanksgiving, we remind you
of the Butterball Turkey Talk-Line
(1-800-288-8372). Butterball has
its entire staff of home economists
on duty Thanksgiving Day
to handle the 7,000 to 8,000 calls
it expects to receive that day
(that’s a lot of helpless cooks!).
And don’t be afraid that your
questions will be too dumb. Here
are a couple of new true Talk-
Line stories we dug up:
A woman called the Turkey
Talk-Line to find out how long
it would take to roast her turkey.
To answer the question, the
Talk-Line home economist asked
how much the bird weighed. The
woman responded, “I don’t know,
it’s still running around outside.”
A restaurant owner in California
wanted to know how to roast a
turkey for a vegetarian menu.
Overheard at the supermarket:
A lady was picking through the
frozen turkeys at the grocery store
but couldn’t find one big enough
for her family. She asked a stock
boy, “Do these turkeys get any
bigger?” The stock boy replied,
“No ma’am, they’re dead.”
And let’s not forget the need for
a little humor as we gather ‘round
the table for the feast:
“Most turkeys taste better the
day after; my mother’s tasted
better the day before.” ~ Rita
Rudner
“I hate turkeys. If you stand in
the meat section at the grocery
store long enough, you start to
get mad at turkeys. There’s turkey
ham, turkey bologna, turkey pastrami.
Someone needs to tell the
turkey, ‘man, just be yourself.’” ~
Mitch Hedberg
“What we’re really talking
about is a wonderful day set
aside on the fourth Thursday of
November when no one diets.
I mean, why else would they
call it Thanksgiving?” ~ Erma
Bombeck
