madrobins: It's a meatloaf.  Dressed up like a bunny.  (Default)

Last night he brought home a free-range, organic turkey. 16 pounds. Everyone at work gets one. I imagine the farm truck backing up with a couple of hundred boxes, each with its own turkey, and the employees going home with a turkey tucked under their arm. Lends new meaning to bringing home the bacon...

So the menu stands at:

Turkey
Gluten-free stuffing
Gluten-full stuffing
Braised Brussels sprouts
Mashed potatoes
Yams*
Green salad
Cornbread*
Cranberry sauce*
Apple pie
Crustless pumpkin pie
Cherry pie (by special request from Avocado, who realized that she'd never had cherry pie before)
Wine
Martinelli's cider

Fortunately most of this make-ahead or have-ready-to-throw-into-the-oven-after-the-turkey's-out

Maybe I just won't eat for a day or two on either side.
