Kinda sucks though. Only found a 21.5 pound turkey at the store last week. Usually we get a 25 pounder. Apparently, due to the hot summer, the turks didn't grow much.

But the real reason is that they were complaining about Poulsen's wages.

We put bacon, sausage, celery, onions, chick broth, cornbread and one other thing that I can't remember. It's remarkable.


Oh look, I found a Franziskaner!

Bacon? That sounds good.

We use freshly made bakery bread instead of cornbread. Finding good sausage is difficult at times. It's gotta be freshly ground.

We got a smaller turkey this year. The kids aren't at home and my parents realized that it's not use keeping the extra without us to eat at it.
You can always freeze it. That came in handy last year. Leftover Turkey and Stuffing sandwiches are the goodness.

Corn bread is the best. I can't really handle gooey stuffing.

I guess they could freeze the turkey, but it would probably be a waste of space. Though I'm trying to get my folks to purchase a freezer unit so we can buy a cow.

Bread all chopped up: done.


What's everyone drinking on these holidays?

I've got Heineken, Goose, and a case of my favorite local wine called Tears of Gettysburg. It's really great stuff for around here, only for $12 a bottle. Also threw in a couple Rebel Reds.

I have a case of Spaten biers lying around. My folks have some wine. We're going to the extended family tomorrow evening and they usually have some sort of German bier and wine and stronger stuff.

I have to do a power point on Friday morning and work in the evening so I'll be taking things easy this holiday.

Don't like gooey either. But that's why I don't put any broth in there at all. Throw in a few litres of water in a pan underneath the turkey and you've got plenty of moisture to share between the turkey and stuffing.

Sounds good, have a good one mate.

I really got to bring down some of this local stuff for you loves. Might be a holiday treat.
