Thanksgiving Menu Live Draft

Wednesday, November 25th, 2009

In honor of me, who is stepping up, and creating the family feast this Thanksgiving (I’m not joking, this is real), thought we’d have a little fun and do a live draft of Thanksgiving menu items to round out the short work week. Surely, it’ll generate some ideas for what I should include in my spread – 100% chance I won’t be able to pull any of your favorite delicacies off, but have fun playing and getting my hopes up.

The rules are simple, once a Thanksgiving appetizer, beverage, dinner item, dessert or after-dessert appertif has been selected, it’s off the board. However, we’ll reward your creativity and allow you to double-up, sort of. For example, if some real Thanksgiving cretin selects “turkey”, then feel free to select ‘“bacon-glazed turkey brined in butter and olive oil” right on top of that.

Additionally, there’s no order or limit to the number of selections. That means, plenty of opportunity to berate other people’s picks, and ostensibly their Thanksgiving familial tradition. So make your picks, then take a break and write a diatribe against Granny Sooze’s banana creme pie.

I’ll be moderating, censoring almost nothing.
