It\u2019s my civic duty to remind you that turkeys should be fried in peanut oil for maximum flavor (and moisture). I also encourage you to watch Planes, Trains and Automobiles, the greatest Thanksgiving movie of all time.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ll be making pumpkin pie and homemade cranberry sauce this year, with the recipes available here<\/a> and here<\/a>. I\u2019m always on the hunt for a new (or improved) recipe, so if you have something worth sharing, drop it in the comment section below.<\/p>\n Consider this your official \u201copen thread\u201d and discussion post.<\/p>\n That means you can skip the recipes and talk about whatever is on your mind \u2014 just keep it clean and courteous so the mods don\u2019t light me up during Thanksgiving dinner. This is also a reminder to mute your inbox to spare yourself the nuisance of 742,000 Emails about Black Friday deals \u2014 followed by the equally incessant marketing campaigns for Cyber Monday.<\/p>\n Above all else, put your phones down and pay attention to the people around you.<\/p>\n Happy Thanksgiving, Maniacs. I\u2019m grateful for your continued support, year after year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It\u2019s my civic duty to remind you that turkeys should be fried in peanut oil for maximum flavor…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":312572,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[570],"tags":[64,63,786,40762,785,85,1396],"class_list":{"0":"post-312571","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mma","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-fighting","11":"tag-latest-ufc-mma-news","12":"tag-mma","13":"tag-sports","14":"tag-ufc-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/312571","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=312571"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/312571\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/312572"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=312571"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=312571"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=312571"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
