      @Akuma Demon, "Much" older? You probably would think my husband is my dad then because his beard is grey! My niece's dad is way older than my sister, and people consistently think SHE is older. Her current husband is younger and I think he looks 30 years older. Assuming things isn't always correct, sometimes, but often not.

      While Italian cooking is up there with the great cuisines of the world, if not the greatest, Italians have contributed much much more to western culture and the world at large. Just to name a few: A republic government, advanced water delivery systems, the Renaissance along with some of the greatest artists, scientists, thinkers, and explorers of all time (Marco Polo, Columbus, Vespucci, Galileo, Davinci, Bernini, Michelangelo, Machiavelli), major contributions to nuclear science, and yes, smart enough to steal the radio from Tesla and the world cup from the French in 2006.

    Using the canned pumpkin was a good choice. Canned pumpkin pie filling isn’t made with the same kind of squash/gourde that we use for decorating. It’s closer to a type of butternut squash.

      @@haroldhenderson2824 Turkeys are far more American than Mexican. Wild turkeys still thrive in the eastern third of the country. Their range in Mexico is much smaller. Turkeys are as American as corn, pumpkin, beans and tobacco. The Pilgrims may not have eaten turkey at the first Thanksgiving meal but they should have because New England's forests were chock full of them at the time and they are today as well.
