Flowers from Travis and My 1st Turkey!


Travis brought me flowers :). He's a romantic. I only had to encourage him a little. They even match my Easter decorations I haven't put out yet! Thank you sweetheart!

On another note, I found a sale on turkeys and decided to try my hand at baking one. It was just a small 5.5 pound one but I had fun preparing for next Thanksgiving!


It turned out very juicy and tender. I couldn't wait to have some.

Travis was seemingly impressed with this turkey and cornbread stuffing and now I'm looking forward to homemade Turkey Pot Pie tomorrow with the leftovers. I love turkey leftovers! After this picture I went and took a 2 hour nap on my bed. Then I got up and took another 2 hour nap on the couch. Maybe I shouldn't love turkey so much.

  2. Looks like you found a wingless/legless turkey. I saw a boneless chicken ranch one time on FarSide but not a turkey like this. Looks like you did a great job but I think blaming the turkey for your naps is a little much.

  3. I love your new photo header! And good job on the turkey - I still only buy the breast, because reaching inside for the giblets (I don't even want to know what those are) gives me the willies. :)
