The Thanksgiving jawn - Questions, NE1?

So, it's Turkey time! I don't know about y'all, but I am SO looking forward to entering a tryptophan-induced coma I'm beside myself. So in honor of the upcoming holiday - Questions, Courtesy of Chick Chat:

Thanksgiving...

1. Is It Really All About The Bird?:
Er, it's 50% bird, 40% side dishes, and 10% dessert.

2. Plain Mashed Potato's or With Gravy?:
taters, smaters - give me the dressing, moist, with a side of gravy...yum.

3. White Meat or Dark Meat?:
depends. MY turkey is ALWAYS moist - so anything goes. However, my Aunt Lucille's dry-a$$ turkey? You'd be lucky to choke down a thigh smothered in gravy. Matter of fact, just give me some ham instead...

4. Apple Pie or Pumpkin Pie?:
okokok - I did NOT make up this list. Again, no question I gotta go off the list - SWEET POTATO. Or how's about Piccadilly's Red Velvet Cake? Yes, I know about their Special Collard Greens, but no one makes red velvet cake like Piccadilly - NO ONE. ok, now that I think about it - maybe I can make it myself...blech.

5. Green Bean Casserole A Do or A Don't?:
Hell to the naw - don't even think about it - HUGE don't. Now, Broccoli Casserole is a different story...

The best part of this year's Thanksgiving Celebration though? I'M NOT COOKING!!!! WOO-HOO!!! <singing> It's party time, whoa it's party time...having a party...uh-c'mon!<end singing>
Note: if you can name the song that lyric is from, and the artist - I'll send you a Platinum Hip-Hop Fan Hall of Fame card ;-)

But back on topic - The Chaos is having the festivities at her crib. For those who don't know, the Chaos is my 20-yr old baby. My admission price? My momma's famous Mac & Cheese. This recipe is dangerous. It has broken up families, as the men of other households passed up firsts of their wives mac & cheese for seconds of mom's. Fights have broken out over the last corner of the pan, and one of my friends called me to complain that her brother ate a half a pan of it for breakfast one morning - cold.

So, a couple pans of the dangerous mac & cheese, and I don't have to clean the kitchen after the thanksgiving hurricane? No prob - it's so ON!

Ok, post your answers, or add some questions - or have a turkey sammich with me!
