With Thanksgiving less than one week away, we thought it would be helpful and fun if everyone shares their turkey-day tips, how-tos, and preferences when it comes to cooking the big bird for the feast; and other dishes, as you wish.
Our questions to you:
What’s your favorite preparation for turkey and do you have any handy tips for doing so?
Any other favorite dishes, and/or recipe- and kitchen-hacks for making Thanksgiving delicious, memorable, and on point?
Please share your thoughts by filling out this form.
Last week, we asked you about Critical Race Theory and you responded. Here is a sampling of reader responses. To read more, click here.
The names of many of these movements and talking points are not clear. BLM, Defund, critical race theory. They leave much to the imagination and are not clear on exactly what they stand for. We need some simple slogans and wording so that people can understand what is fundamentally behind them. And I’m not completely clear in what any of them mean; and I’ve even researched.

Don’t know who is teaching it, but certainly every American needs to be provided the data showing that one piece of racism and our failure to achieve social justice lies in the area on inequality under the very law that purports to be blind to appearance. The idea is right, but the application of blind justice is nonexistent.
Carol Chisholm, St. Michaels
Critical race theory is being taught, but I guess the educators don’t want to call it that. For them, it is all about equity where the government wants to determine the outcome for selective “oppressed” groups, rather than equality where everyone has an equal opportunity to achieve success. In addition to their teachings about race, our students are asked to sexually identify as something and what pronoun they want to be used to describe them and to question their sexual identity. No wonder kids are confused.
