i made thanksgiving dinner last year (traditional with turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, apple crisp). must be careful not to overcook the turkey or it will get dry. also i put herbed butter rub all over the outside of the turkey to give it color and seal in the moisture a bit :D

working from home needs a lot of self discipline! but the nice thing is no commute or anything. heck, i've been known to take conference calls and do netmeeting while in my jammies, completely unshowered. sometimes not even brush my teeth!! hahahahahaa :D

good luck, dino. see you when you can spare the time

[LiLiaN]

i find working from home quite distracting... especially since my place is not set up as a place to work... i'll keep on popping in and out of kitchen for food!

What I'll do is, I wrap the turkey with aluminium foil and roast for 45 minutes. Removed the foil and keep the gravy from the turkey to mixed with cranberry sauce. Continue roasting till turkey is cook. That way, the turkey won't get dry.

Sila, can i get a favour from you? Can you help me to buy a bottle of cranberry sauce when you come back to m'sia? :) Please?

[kamkuey]

Slowing down these days. I think its room temp. turkey now. :D

[ausman]

I never let my son watch tubbies... but then Barney.... yes with close supervision by his mom....
At one time... we let him watch power rangers.... amn that was a nitemare for us and I imposed a total ban on the show.... it had such a strong influence on him that he imagine himself as one of the ranger and treat his class mate as monster.... that nite... I had a long and serious discussion with him..... "Disciplinary Action"

Phew... what a relief that he understand the severity of that talk... now he is into Thomas and Friends... lately The Incredibles... of course he think he is "DASH" and his daddy is "blue" Mr. Incredible lah.

[Dino]

yeah, some christians in australian thought teletubbies were promoting homosexuality.

This actually came from a conservative christain Jerry Farwell. He says that the pink teletubby is gay because of that logo on top of his head. That triangle represents a gay logo or something. :confused:

[siewjang]

Some story that i've heard. There is evil in the stomach of the Teletubbies that is why kids fallen in love with them but the adults hate them.

Dino, you are so cruel to put up the evil barney pic :mad: Don't want to flend you liao

well, one xmas (maybe 1999 or 2000, i forget) they made the teletubby dolls that if you squeeze the tummy it says what it's supposed to say on tv (i.e., "a-oh" or whatever). the gay tubby (i forget his name now) carries a purse and has a triangle logo and apparently there were some of the dolls of his that when you pressed his tummy he said "faggot!". seriously. it's supposed to say something else but someone got away with getting the tubby to say "faggot!". i thought it was just a rumour but the radio station i listened to tried to find out and asked people to call in if they had a "faggot" teletubby - and people did call in! i heard it, over the phone! it was SO funny :D
