Not one of my better photos.
Yes, that is one awfully big bird. I was a little tardy about getting it this year and that was the only option. Eighteen pounds! We had major defrosting drama but it looks like we got away with it.
It was accompanied by sweet potatoes cooked in maple syrup and butter* (yes I'm appalled too but they're soooo good), broccoli in a mornay sauce and roast potatoes. The turkey was stuffed with a wild rice stuffing and the bottle tyou can see in the picture has a nice Cotes du Rhone in it. There is a apple and sour cream pie in the oven, Johnny Hartman is on the sound track and we have love in our hearts.
We'll settled own to watch Holiday Inn in all it's politically incorrect glory now.
Hope yours was as good 'cause it couldn't have been better.
