"If it isn't "chocolate" it's a Vegetable to me....."...said my old friend Carole Cook....and how true that is...lol! The Chocolate Turkeys above are a Thanksgiving Day Tradition for me. As children we had Chocolate Turkeys from Scrafft's....(One day I will do a post about Schrafft's....) and then from Fanny Farmer.....After I moved out here to Los Angeles, I discovered See's Candy. The Chocolate Turkeys, as seen above, come from See's and have since 1961! Though I cannot go anywhere anymore I still send the Chocolate Turkey's to the home where I had spent many Thanksgivings, where there are lots of children who now think of this as a tradition, too.....
So.....I wish each and everyone of you the Happiest of Thanksgivings.....Do eat well! And enjoy all the people you are with....!
All kidding aside.....Do have a truly Happy Thanksgiving.....!
And if you are traveling...Drive Safe and Fly Safe........
Now....I really mean, 'all kidding aside'.......
Enjoy, Enjoy!More To Come..........

Can only agree with Carole Cook. I may just have to borrow that saying.

Great cartoons, Naomi. I think I need some Prozac for my turkey too, since I am hosting 14 for dinner!
Wish you were here today, Naomi; I am grateful for you!! Happy Thanksgiving!- Thursday, November 26, 2009 at 4:44:00 AM PST

Enjoy your Thanksgiving Day. Here in Canada, we celebrated our Thanksgiving in October! I've never seen chocolate turkeys before, but I suppose it makes sense.... you can get all sorts of things made out of chocolate, so why not turkeys?? Have a good day, Naomi.

I had my friend Jayn's mock mince meat pie. I waited 2 years for it. I gained one pound over night. Just took my yearly family photo, so I'm complete now. Enjoy your sweet turkeys!
