Can it.

You don't celebrate a beautiful woman's birthday by erecting a billboard with an HD closeup of what you consider to be her blemishes. Let that nation that is without blemish, or that which has done more over the past 232 years to advance the ideals expressed in the Declaration, throw the first stone.
 
Lighten up, Rox. Our sense of humor is the best thing about us.

In fact, when you compare us to our enemies, I think that's the one thing that separates us from them.

The feast is on the house too. American Taxpayer foots the bill.

I didn't want to impinge upon the founding fathers and all.

We might have snickerdoodles, though.

And parfait. Strawberry. 'Cause nobody doesn't like parfait.
Look carefully at the box. The last Jell-o I bought was made in Canada. That just seems wrong somehow.
 
This is a repost from another thread but it is the explanation for the corn dogs.


The corn dog thing is a family joke now.

Young son had very picky food tendencies for a time. He'd eat cheese pizza, grilled cheese, plain cheeseburgers and hot dogs. That was it. Oh, and macaroni and cheese and juicy juice.

He is expanding his palate, gradually. Finally!

But he'd heard about corn dogs. Was so excited about having corn dogs. It's not a normal family staple but we got them one time, to his great delight. He talked about it for hours.

The grand event? The time of great feasting?

He didn't even attempt to eat the breading. He got his corn dog, peeled it, and then went happily off to eat the hot dog on a stick. :rolleyes:

Corn dogs. We got them again for tomorrow with the burgers and chips and BBQ baked beans and watermelon - we'll give it another go.

Happy holidays!

We're having ribs with a side of gratitude and a heaping helping of hope.
