Thanksgiving's coming up and I don't know who all's going to still be here, but I thought I'd try to fry a turkey. So if you're going to be at the mansion on Thursday and want some food, stop by the kitchen. I'm going to be trying really hard not to blow anything up with this fryer thing I bought.

And hey, I have no idea how to make stuffing or half of the other stuff people usually eat around this time of year, so if you know how to make things like green bean casserole or whatever, you should make it and bring it. Kind of like a potluck feast that will last at least eight hours.

Also, football. On TV and possibly an actual game, if there are enough people who want to play.

Mostly, though, I just want to fry a turkey whole because how awesome is that?

As usual, vegetarian options are available, but I'm not frying tofurkey.

Wade, please tell me you're at least going to defrost the turkey before you fry it..preferably outside.
I'm down for the game, tv or real.

What do you take me for, an amateur? Of course I'm thawing the turkey. I said I was trying to not blow anything up.

Sweet. Now I just need to convince some other people to get involved. Pretty sure Ramsey'd be down, if I can pull him away from his consoles.

I shouldn't hang around the mansion to eat but I can bring something by. I've been wanting to try making a fusion stuffing dish with Middle Eastern spices.

Oh, I'm Sharon, by the way. I don't think we've met, virtually or physically?

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

Nope, haven't met. I'm Wade. I brought the moose to the mansion for Molly.

Also, if you make that stuffing, I will send you home with a really big piece of turkey or something. Why shouldn't you stay to eat?

I want to help deep fry the turkey!

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

Sure, but 'help' is the key word there. You are not allowed to scald your skin off with boiling oil.

[x-catseye.livejournal.com]

Hi Wade. I've heard about your moose, and a lot about you from Molly. She's very fond of you.

I'd never say no to a really big piece of turkey!

I shouldn't stay to eat because I used to be involved with a guy at the mansion (he used to be called Nick but now he's going by the name of John) who suffered some amnesia last year and his doctors think him seeing me may cause him what they call "psychic trauma." So I'm at the mansion for training but I don't really hang around the public areas much. He's uneasy around all things electronic though which means he doesn't read the journals so I tend to virtually loiter around the journals more than I loiter around the mansion in person.

"help" also means more than standing there like a dumbass while you have all the fun

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

And I'm very fond of her. She's a good kid.

Good, cause I bought this turkey and it's huge.

I've met John. I'm sorry you can't stay longer, but you're more than welcome to take a huge plate of food back with you.

I'm not gonna make you stand there like a dumbass. I just watched this video of a guy putting a turkey in the fryer and it like blew up. So I'll get it set up and you can put the turkey in, deal? Just don't get pissed off if I have to yank you away from the fryer when it tries to explode on you.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

that's fair. I am all for not burning my face any more than it already has been.

I'm cooking for my family on Thursday so I'm sure we'll be pawning off food by the end of the night as it is, but I wouldn't say no to a turkey sandwich on my way back in to the city!

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

Excellent. Is there anything specific you want to eat, besides fried turkey?

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

other food? I don't know. cranberry sauce. stuff.

I might be able to make green bean casserole. I made it once before. I can cook, but not fancy or anything. that's about my limit.

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

It's a deal. Bring me fusion stuffing and I will give you a sandwich.

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

Sweet. Tell me what you need for the casserole and I'll pick it up.

I still don't know why people eat that cranberry sauce from a can. It's like weird jello.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

I dunno. I mean, the recipe is on the can of those crunchy onion thingies. I'm blind though, you gotta read it.

it tastes good.

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

I can handle that.

Weird. Weird jello.

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

Not an amateur, but from what I've read weird things have a habit of happening around you. For example Halloween.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

that was how it worked. I did most of the cooking once I was old enough with my dad, but after I was blind he had to read the recipes. it's been a few years since I made anything though.

still tastey. what other kind is there?

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

Valid point, but that was not my fault. And nothing blew up. That's key. There were no explosions. Your wife just turned into a mermaid for a little while and stole my eyelash curlers.

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

Then we have a plan.

The kind with actual cranberries in it? I dunno, I'll find a recipe for that, too. Or maybe somebody will bring some. That'd be nice.

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

She did what! I don't suppose anyone happened to have a camera handy did they?

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

Never had it with berries in it. sounds weird.

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

Actually, someone did. I think the pictures might be used for blackmail purposes at some undetermined time in the future.

It was one of the students.
