. . . simon and garfunkel turkey . . .

. . . i couldn't stop humming 

"are you going 

to scarborough fair? 

parsley, sage, 

rosemary, and thyme" 

as i prepped these herbs today . . . 

 {pictured l-r: parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme}

. . . call me crazy, 

but i cooked 

our thanksgiving turkey today . . .

. . . i bought it friday . . .

. . . it's been in the fridge 

thawing for four days . . . 

. . . i opened it this morning 

and my giblets were still icy . . .

. . . icy giblets ~ that's the worst . . .

. . . i usually use 

a reynolds turkey cooking bag, 

but since you're 

supposed to shake flour 

inside the bag before using, 

i knew that was out . . .

. . . so i decided 

to give this recipe 

a try . . .

{if your name is vicki sherwood, don't click on that link!}

. . . and i was pleased 

with the way it turned out . . .

. . . the turkey stayed nice and - - - 

not dry . . .

. . . mine is 

not nearly as beautiful 

as amy's . . .

. . . most of the dark meat 

and all of these crumbs 

will end up in the dressing . . .

. . . if you're lucky, 

i'll share that recipe tomorrow . . .

. . . it's a keeper . . .

. . . and it always brings me great joy 

to dispose of the disgusting carcass . . .

. . . i can't imagine 

anyone wanting that 

on their serving table! . . .
