The countdown to gobble gobble is on. I can honestly say that people who stress this much over dinner, can kiss my fat irish ass. If I cook for anyone, and they are in my house eating for free, without a mess to clean up, and they bitch about the food, no. I would eject them ass over tea kettle. Same as me, free eats and Im not complaining. We are all big boys and girls, why do something that is going to affect you negatively like that? I get a bird cause I like it, I feed people I like and who appreciate it, most of which are friends and not my family.
Im thinking of doing a pumpkin / yam combo this year to go with the bird. Fresh stuffing, corn on the cob ( if I can find it ) gravy, fresh Ceasar salad- which doesn't really go but I like it, and baking powder biscuits. Seeing as how its just me, i sorta have to feed others, I don't like to waste food.
Turkey tip: Fresh sprigs of rosemary, take the twigs out, and microwave the rest for 3 mins to dry it out. IT WILL BE HOT. Sounds like common sense I know, but I learned the hard way let me tell you. Anyway, after it cools, crush it into a powder, which is easy, and rub onto bird. I like to add a little bacon that has been precooked into my stuffing. Maybe with a little ground pork.
Thats all I can think of ATM, Ill have to dive into my cookbooks and see what else I can dig up.

Wait... there are people who go to dinner at other people's houses and then complain about the food? Is it possible to breed such behavior out of our species?
