What’s Your Funniest Thanksgiving Moment?
Nov 23 2012 in Contests, Events, Holiday Survival Guide by Denise
Sometimes, the biggest turkey isn’t the bird.
Maybe it happened with your caree or another family member or with a turkey that was too big. But, it happened. Something went horribly wrong. Yesterday, it wasn’t really that funny. But, today, it’s a great after-Thanksgiving tale.
We want to hear it. Post your funniest Thanksgiving moment or conversation or gaffe. When you do, you’ll be entered into a contest for a chance to win a $250 gift certificate from NorthShore Care Supply. You can use your gift certificate to purchase home-delivered incontinence supplies, home care products and weight scales. View products from NorthShore at www.northshorecare.com.
Share your story in our comments section below before Tuesday at midnight; we’ll announce a winner on Wednesday. (Please note: We’ve extended our deadline by 48 hours.)

Denise, What a wonderful contest! As I think of things, I’ll post them. I hope you and your family had a great Thanksgiving!
Here’s one funny:
Yesterday, Robert enjoyed his food (as usual). He ate turkey, baked beans, stuffing/dressing, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes & gravy, roll, cranberry sauce, fruit salad, broccoli and cheese, mac & cheese and blueberry pie.
Then, before finishing the pie, he asked to have Rocky Road Ice Cream after pie.
He is a creature of habit!

Well, Rocky Road is the perfect end to a perfect meal!

I did make hiim wait a while but eventually let him have his Rocky Road ice cream. You can bet he wasn’t going to let me forget it that night!

Congrats to Trish!

Wow! Thanks so much, Denise! I checked out NorthShore Care Supply’s website and they carry a lot of great products. Robert’s Rocky Road Ice Cream has become my good luck charm.
