Thankful. To live in a strongly republican community. Trump and Pence signs still up. Another gun went off - yes, guns. People have 'em here.

There one went again.  Have noticed, however, haven't seen that wild turkey running around for awhile - guess they know, around September or October, what comes up in November.  

Having roast chicken this year.  With all the meat - which i'm thankful for, that my late husband had bought, just a few weeks before he died - anyway, there's still alot there.  Probably another 2 year's worth - don't eat much meat.  So, a 15-pound turkey, added?  Nah!  Think with covid, the 10-pounders - which is still too much - had been snatched up.

Family have their own family, and friends, the same.  No biggee, it's all good.  

Because Christmas falls on a Saturday this year, making Christmas dinner will work.  No way, if Christmas was on a Sunday - Thursday, because after all that, then getting up the next day for work.  Have dinners here because, going elsewhere means driving after dark - no thanks!

  1. We are having a roast turkey breast. Comes out to 5 servings which is fine for the two of us.

  2. They also make something called "turkey roast" which can be all breast meat or mixed breast and thigh in a type of mesh bag that you roast and then remove the netting. I do that with side dishes.

  3. Dear Tabor and Anonymous, i can't help but to look back to before my husband took ill. I'd get like a 12-pounder (which he thought was a bit small), and then do it all over again for Christmas. The turkeys lasted about...maybe a week.
