President Hernandez was serving 45 years in prison for a plot to distribute 400 tons of cocaine before Trump pardoned him. Meanwhile, Trump is murdering fishermen in small boats for allegedly smuggling far smaller amounts.
“Additionally, I Will be granting a Full and Complete Pardon to Former President Juan Orlando Hernandez who has been, according to many people that | greatly respect, treated very harshly and unfairly.”

My mom spent like 3 days brining a turkey and it turned out excellent.

My dad complimented the turkey and said it must’ve been a good bird.

25 years later and we still say it when the turkey is good.

We're WASPs. Comedy is not our Thanksgiving genre. Horror? My brother decided he was gourmet cooking-enabled one year and made garlic mashed potatoes with 20 cloves of raw garlic. We ate it. Nobody said anything.

My sister and I still laugh about it. We've never told him. WASPs. We invented closets

My sister and my father engage in a cold war over the mashed potatoes every year. They will pile up as much as they can, staring daggers across the table if anyone says anything. All so that there are no leftovers for the other.

It is a fued that has ensured no leftover taters in the house ever.

On Thanksgiving many years ago, my mom surprised me and my brother with our early Christmas gifts. She was giving us the gift of togetherness. She was flying our sister home for Christmas.

Our mean and utterly horrible sister.

My brother asked if his gift could be returned.

I had a major falling out with my ex-SIL over green beans. Yes green beans. I asked what I could bring. She suggested a veggie dish, and I offered green beans with slivered almonds. I still don't know what her precise objection was, but somehow, that was Just Not Done.

On the other side, my inlaws are so white that last year I added a bit of sour cream and onion seasoning to the mashed potatoes and my FIL complained that they had too much flavor.

My uncle and grandfather (both shuffled off this mortal coil) used to get into huge arguments about which way to pass the food (clockwise or counterclockwise). Every year.

Yes, they were both engineers.
