I donno, I live in New Zealand where turkeys are something we roast in a hot oven on stinking hot Christmas days and then eat with boiling hot boiled vegetables. If you're not gently sweating through Christmas lunch you're not doing it right.
Oops, sorry, I had a shatnerian moment there and got confused about where you live :-D
Does anyone ever commit sacrilege and eat, say, slices of cold turkey with potato salad and chilled roasted vegetables? Because that would seem to be sooo much more sensible.
We do Thanksgiving in Canada, too, but a month earlier than the Americans. In our case it's more of a British-style harvest festival, but with a side of flightless fowl.

Oh I didn't realise Canadians did a version of Thanksgiving as well. Interesting, I shall have to google the antecedents of that.
