Thanks be....

to all my wonderful friends, fandom, the people who take the time to read my fic and my posts, Tony Stark, Methos, Jack Sparrow, and new guy, Loki [g]. Also, my passel and a half of kittehs, my House Elf and NinjaPiglet, and my (relative) health.

[HUGS]

Both turkeys are cooking, one in the BBQ and the other in the countertop roaster, I have Nin's cheese dressing in the slow-cooker, a pot of turkey innards simmering to make a quick stock to add to the gravy when we get there, and garlic roasting for the mashed taters. And I treated myself to a new album, Build Me This, by Joshua James. It's awesome. I love the internet - I'm still tickled by things like being able to buy music and get it instantly.

Happy Turkey Day hon! Enjoy the turkey and fixings and wow -- you're making homemade stock? Fantastic.

We really like gravy, so making the quick stock form the innards really helps stretch it out :)

I was amused to see the fictional characters on your list because in the midst of his Thanksgiving grace, John, while mentioning many other things, included my character in the game we're playing whom I am always talking about and he is sick of hearing about. I thought it was really funny of him to stick that in there.

LOL! Well, they tend to pout if you don't remember them.

I am writing a book about the characer, and I had this thought of "Hey, wouldn't it be cool if the book made a lot of money. It would be as if I had been justified after all John's complaining."

And it was as if the voice of God said back to me: "No, Dear, if it makes a lot of money it will be to reward John for the horror of the period of having to listen to you babble on about this."

LOL

I am late in replying
BUT two days before the big day on Nightline they showed how to
deep fry one.
It turns out you set it up in the middle of our yard.
Then you place the turkey in the pot and fill with water.
Take turkey out and note where water level is and fill that level with oil, NO MORE than that amount
We watch as he slowly lowers it into the hot oil and 45 minutes later he has a perfectly cooked bird.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
No need to call the fire dept and pay thousands to get your home repaired if it did not entirely burn down.
