Thanksgiving Observances
Turkeys are for suckers. I didn’t like turkey when I was a kid, and I don’t like turkey now. Granted, I’ve heard good things about fried turkey, and I have personally made a darn fine bird by brining the bejeezus out of it, but really, if you have to work THAT hard to make something taste good … maybe you shouldn’t be cooking it in the first place.
Speaking of not cooking in the first place, what am I missing when it comes to Rachael Ray? She’s cute and noisy and all, but so are Pomeranians, and yet somehow they manage not to be on every television show and magazine in these great United States. To be fair, my experience with Rachael Ray mostly involved two weeks in the desert of southern New Mexico when I actually had access to a television and she was on every channel all the time, and I have no proof that she’s not a good and fine person. I just don’t get the love. Someone help.

THIS year we're giving the Turkey Canon a shot. Admittedly this does sound a mite 1812 Festival Oveture-ish, but if we are not audacious in the kitchen, where are we to be bold?
Will send after action report (if we make it through this.)
Yours ever,

Talk about being everywhere - have you seen Rachel's picture on the back of every box of saltine/triscuit/every kind of cracker in the world at the grocery store? She's teetering seriously on the brink of overexposure (while ammassing tons of promotional dollars!) Oh, and I hate turkey too - we're having fried chicken.
