THANKSGIVING HORROR STORIES

Here are some Thanksgiving horror stories from years past, as poeted on Twitter:
– Thought I’d somehow forgotten to order most of the ingredients I needed for thanksgiving cooking. Turns out my husband just forgot to get any of them out of his trunk 7 hours ago. Botulism here we come!
– The oven door just broke off mid turkey bake.
– First Thanksgiving, forgot to take the liver, neck and giblets out of the body of the turkey. Also salt instead of sugar in the pumpkin pies.
– Our cat ate a chunk out of the turkey that was resting in the sink before going into the oven. My mother cooked anyway and we ate it. No one died.
– Pie ended up on the ceiling one year.
– Earlier this year I used the turkey baster to suck power steering fluid out of the fluid reservoir before changing the power steering pump in our car. I forgot to replace the baster it and now it’s a crisis.
– Our feast came to a screeching halt because my aunt’s dog was bleeding so she rushed him to the emergency vet and it turned out to be cranberry juice.
