Stocking Up

Greg has been slowly purchasing the ingredients for our Thanksgiving feast next week. We don't have an especially huge refrigerator, so one thing he's delayed buying so far is the actual star of the show, Mr. Turkey.

In the past, my husband has baked turkeys, brined and baked turkeys, and deep-fried turkeys. This year, just to change things up, he's going to brine and deep-fry.

I guess the latest trend is actually to smoke a turkey or make one on the grill (which has the advantage of freeing up oven space), but we're going to stick with something more tried and true.

We're only having four additional people for dinner. Since he also bought a ham, you had better all bring your appetites.

Next week, I'm starting on the pies!
