Alvin is awesome.

i want to win

I like the story about the young cook who roasted the turkey with the packet of giblets still inside.

Thank you for having this. My most memorable was when my aunt decided to cook the turkey and left all the insides in - plastic and all..it was a lesson learned by all

Hanging the Turkey
Young Simon was sitting in his grandmother's kitchen, watching her prepare the Thanksgiving meal.

'What are you doing?' Simon enquired.

'Oh, I'm just stuffing the turkey,' his grandmother replied.

'Wow, that's cool.' Simon remarked. 'Are you going to hang it next to the deer?'

last year I decided I would try and help, i made my dish and decided to buy and bring pumpkin pie.....well I don't eat pumpkin pie so I didn't know I was suppose to freeze it and when everyone (7 people) went to get it and take a piece, they opened it and it was nothing but crust! from moving it from the store to home to my moms it spilled all over inside the box so when she pulled it out of her freezer it was frozen all along inside the box and not in the pie, I was so embarrassed because everyone knew to do that but me :o( lol.

Seeing baby's face as she took her first bite of cranberry sauce - too funny. We would love to win the dvd!

We have one that we laugh about every year. My aunts and grandma (who has now passed), we traveling to our house which was about a 45 minute drive. When they arrived and Grandma got out of the car, she realized that she had been sitting on the rolls for the whole trip! She wondered by the seat was so uncomfortable, but never said anything.

As a new bride in 1975, I was eager to learn how to cook, and fortunately I worked so hard at it that my first family event, Thanksgiving that year went as I planned and many of the 17 present complimented my efforts and I was rewarded with a big hug from MY DAD.

Our dog took a bite out of our uncooked turkey!

Great prize! It would be funny to watch on Thanksgving day!

Years ago, I was cooking Thanksgiving dinner for 15 people. I lifted the finished turkey out of the oven, put it on a platter, and as I walked it to the other side of the kitchen to have my hubby carve it, the platter broke, and the turkey went sliding along the kitchen floor! The 13 guests stared, wide-eyed and open-mouthed! We all got quite a laugh out of it...AFTER we salvaged what we could. Laughing until we were crying. It's a very funny story to tell now, many years later.

One year my mom did Thanksgiving at our house for the first year. Everybody sat down to eat and my grandmother ended up on the floor. Our chair broke. She was fine but we all couldn't help but laugh. Needless to say my mom never did it again..

never forgot the time that i made a cheesecake and forgot the creamcheese.you should have seen the reactions

I love Alvin and the Chipmunks. This would be really great. Thanks!!

cute

I guess it had to be when the dog ate the dessert as we were eating the turkey and the rest of the side dishes. No apple pie for any of us. Thank goodness we still had the pumpkin pies in the refrig and ice cream in the freezer.

All those people who cook their turkeys in the deep fat fryers. I think we all know that there is something sinister about that whole idea...

when i was little i helped stuff the turkey. one year there was an air pocket - but being little and hearing the empty wind flap through the turkey, i thought it was alive!

I really don't have funny Thanksgiving stories to tell but I would love to win this video for my son who is almost 3 years old. He is just getting to the point of making me laugh on a continous basis so I'm sure that this Thanksgiving will be a riot.

Not funny at the time, but laughable in hind-sight - My friend, Joyce, had a next-door neighbor who owned a beautiful German Shepherd,"Bo", who chose to spend most of his time eating and sleeping at Joyce's house, preferring her accommodations and "bill of fare". So they offered to let her adopt him, which she gladly did. However, Thanksgiving came. The neighbor's turkey was cooked to perfection and set on a table in the garage to cool. Bo, apparently, decided that the day's menu at his old home was more to his liking than usual. He devoured the entire turkey! Luckily, all he ended up with was a belly-ache and a whole lot of GAS! He could have had terrible complications. The neighbors could not really complain - after all Bo was theirs originally.

My Grandson was 2.He was told all about Thanksgiving and made turkey pictures with paper.When his mother cooked the turkey and placed it on the table,he started screaming "You killed Turkey lurkey!" We have the picture to prove it!

learning that you cannot use formula if you forgot to buy condensed and evaporatored milk- yuck

My wife's first turkey was in 1954 and the cooking the bird inside a brown paper bag was the new thing to do. Well, she did that. We all sat down,all 7 present, but the turkey was not done.
For, whatever reason. So we all laughted, gave a toast to the meal, a prayer and began to eat all the fixins. When the turkey got done we still had room for it and dessert too.
