lol I see there is a bird on the table. I guess Pilsner didn’t attend. Somehow I really doubt that was what was served. Probably venison.

Muskrat love!

Burdock root is called goboh in Japan, and is very tasty cooked any number of ways. (It is pretty high fiber, though.)

@Suzanne, turkey is native to North America, and there is actually a high probability that it was on the menu.

Lucky the doc wore that hat to the feast. He might have stood out otherwise

I’m with E.B. on this one. We haven’t had muskrat and burdock root chowder at Thanksgiving since Granny passed away.

How funny! Our contribution to dinner today involves burdock root. No muskrat, tho.

I didn’t know the Pilgrims had “muskrat love.”

In Canada for the holiday. Had tofu for lunch in solidarity with Pilsner.

not too sure about that muskrat. Can be a little to lively (especially with music). But the burdock should be good.
