15...and Turkey Hoarding

Forgive me, readers, for I have sinned.

After unabashedly eating two separate Thanksgiving dinners on two separate days this past weekend (neither of which was cooked - or hosted - by me), The Hubbs and I came home and made our very own 22-lb turkey.

And we didn't invite anyone to help us eat it.

That's right: we hoarded that giant turkey. All for ourselves.

We had two more traditional turkey dinners on Sunday and Monday, followed by some super-fun leftover experiments.

The cream of turkey and wild rice soup is fantastic. No, I really mean it. This stuff is epic.

Tonight, we'll be making one of our favorites: turkey pot pie.

And in between everything else, there's always The Hubbs' specialty: turkey sandwiches with cranberry sauce.

Oh, and this whole time, guess who's been singing "Twinkle?"

Life is good, folks.  Life is good.

And, for those of you joining in on the countdown, only fifteen more days until I've finished my AS degree.  What will I do with all of this upcoming free time?  Somehow, I don't think it'll be a problem.

  1. Oh I'm SURE you will find a *very* good way to fill that time ;) Btw, I'm going to need the recipes for your apple crisp & the cream of turkey & wild rice soup. I'll look for our cranberry sauce recipe right now.
