"One year my grandmother was complaining about the awful snacks. She was eating potpourri."
"Two years ago, my aunt forgot the turkey and my cousin forgot the desserts, so it was just different kinds of potatoes."
"Should have used a pie pan."
"One Thanksgiving I tried out a new chocolate fondue fountain, but it spun out of control and got chocolate everywhere - - and then it hardened."
“My grandpa was making mashed potatoes when his dentures fell into them. He stared right at me and after he put them back in, said, ‘Don’t you tell a soul.'”
"One year, my mother-in-law was making gravy. She poured the gravy in the strainer and forgot to put a pan underneath, and it all went down the sink!”
“One year the turkey still had pink juice coming from it after cooking, but my dad said it was just ‘leg juice,’” one fan wrote in. “Everybody but me ended up with food poisoning.”
