LOL I’m with you, Debra! No Black Friday shopping for me. I’m staying inside where it’s warm & safe. For me, there’s nothing that I need so badly, no matter the deal, that I’m willing to deal with the crowds & traffic & rudeness. No, thank you. :ohcrap

It made me chuckle, too! And really, I didn’t know turkey was toxic to dogs! The bones, sure, but who’da thought more of it? If I ever get a pup, I’ll definitely have to research that more carefully!

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. Yet again, my turkey was underdone. At least this year it was just around the leg joints. Not sure it’s worth the trouble to make a turkey though I love eating it. I immediately made bowls of turkey for the cats, they ate two bites and walked away. One of the three didn’t even do that. What!!!! I had a cat who ate an entire 12 lb. turkey (over a week or two) because I left in the giblets and stuff (it was my first) and I was too grossed out to eat it. She weighed about 6 lbs. soaking wet but LOVED turkey, would howl the whole time it was cooking.

That is too cute, Anne! I happily offer my kittehs as much turkey as they want. I’ll give them the blood & bits raw, if they want it (I normally feed them a raw diet, so this is nothing peculiar), & then also little bits once it’s cooked. They *sometimes* poke at it, but this year turned their noses up entirely. UNTIL I reheated a bit of turkey later on & sat down to eat…then I had three of them on my lap, begging me to share.
Seriously?!? Apparently turkey is only yummy to them when it’s *mine* & not offered to them directly. Hmph. :purplebat

I braved the store today…only because i ran out of formula for the baby lol. I bought a few toys for my 3 year old who was with me. I could only buy so much though because every toy i bought i would tell him it was for one of his friends and he only has so many friends! lol.

I too braved the masses today, not that there was anything I HAD to have, it’s justa fun day spent with my daughter and sister-in-law. It’s turned in to more of a fun tradition than a ‘gotta have it’. Loved the cartoons–they made me giggle :money FBF

I braved the masses but I just went to one store and got the rest of the sales online. If I had any other choice, I wouldn’t have gone out at all. Now, we are home reading and relaxing the rest of the weekend.

Took my teenage cousin shopping this afternoon. I just won’t get up early to save money! We had fun and picked up a couple of things, then went to see The Muppets! It took me right back to my girlhood! :dancingelvis

:lol Fbf…..awesome day since my husband does the midnight shopping for gifts for the kids. I got to stay home and read my romance novels.

Cathy Ward says:
FBF… really appreciate that today.
No way am I going out and I usually have lunch at Chili’s on Friday. It’s right next to Walmart so I assume there will be craziness.
I keep a box in the closet and shop all year. Just put gift in box, after Thanksgiving drag it out and see what I have for everyone. Then I do a little fill-in shopping for the rest.
Today I opted to stay home and eat chocolate pudding pie.

I’m not a Black Friday person…wild wolves couldn’t get me to go shopping on Black Friday.
I would love to be entered in the contest – FBF.
Thank you for the opportunity.

Happy FBF.
There was no way in he** I was going out in those crazy people pushing crowds and getting trampled over a flat screen tv or fear of getting pepper sprayed by some idiot who wanted my place in line. I’ll stay home and shop online without having to worry about the crowds of crazies who are out and about.

FBF I don’t go out shopping on black Friday either. I did have to go into Walmart yesterday though because of getting a prescription. It was in the afternoon and it wasn’t to bad crowded and I really didn’t think they had that good of sells going on.
