Holiday cooking/eating tips:

1. If you eat standing up, it won't go to your hips.

2. If it has been liquified, all of the calories are gone from it.

3. Chocolate really IS its own food group.

4. NEVER use a clothes dryer to thaw out a frozen turkey.

(that was from my wife – but hey, it gets thawed out, the meat is pre-tenderized and if you take it out of the dryer right when the cycle is done, there are no unsightly wrinkles on it and it is ready to just pop into the oven. Besides, if you close the door to the laundry room during the "thawing cycle", the noise isn't all that bad – not only that, nobody will be able to see the dents on the inside of the dryer anyway.
