my husband does NOT want to ever have company or go any where on Thanksgiving day because the Dallas Cowboys always play that day so I bake 2 cornish hens and a pan of dressing. One year I talked hime into a 2 hr trip to his family's and we had to stay till the game was over and that made us very late getting home and I have to get up at 4am for work so I won't make that mistake again!
