I hope your holidays are wonderful, Bon. I am looking forward to planting some of your seeds for my winter sowing project – something to look forward to after the holiday visiting and celebrating ends.

merry Christmas to All and the very best wishes for the new year.

Theres up to 7 people live here so my MIL bought the Christmas turkey. I have no idea where one buys a turkey like that as it must have been a world record holder…....a whopping 32 pounds (how do you fit it in the oven)...... a freak of nature. yes it was the biggest bird in my memory and as tough as a pigs nose and of course the FIL wants it not just cooked, but so cooked one would be hard pressed to find even a single water molecule in it. Kinda like eating those dry lima beans.

the bride decided to make gravy (she makes awesome gravy) and then had her oldest son carry the gravy pan over to the outlaws apartment. This young lad doesnt belivee in excersise so his wrists were not quite up to the task of carrying 5 gallons of gravy and right at the dinner table…...it tipped. Piping hot, scalding gravy came out like Niagra falls, like a flash flood down a mountain. This sets of a chain of events, a domino effect that once again, should have been filmed. FIL flips over backwards taking his half full plate with him, kids ass over tea kettle…...................I make the mistake of laughing out loud only to see the ice cold eyes of my bride which sealed my fate in cleaning up the mess…..........the laugh ended. Old uncle Bob had is aged mind kick into gear which set of an infinite amount of stories about gravy, some funny, some sexual which in turn set of the pubescent children off yelling “Uncle Bob….we really dont want to hear your sexual escapade stories”

Dinner was perfect.

Years ago when all the kids were small,we bought a 51 pounder from a butcher at the farmers market.Everyone who was there commented on how tough that bird would be.Well the butcher took me aside and told me how to cook it.This bird dragged the sides of my oven,which was on the bottom rack and just cleared the broiling element on the top.
I must say that this turkey was moist,flavorful and we had leftovers for weeks to come.Whenever anyone talks about turkeys,this story is always told.
