The turkey I cooked tonight was unbelievably delicious. Must have been the Pad Thai seasoning I added. Or the garlic cloves and just the right amount of pepper. I stuffed the bird with whole carrots, a yam, and some onions. I laid the bird in the roasting pan on whole carrots, fresh garlic cloves and cut up onions. I added the seasoning to water, mixed it up and sprinkled the mix over the vegees prior to cooking. I basted the bird in olive oil mixed with garlic powder and pepper.
I cooked.
Some would say, "But Jody, tomorrow is Thanksgiving, not today."
Well, I couldn't wait, and it frees up tomorrow for other things. Like sleeping in.
I'll be eating turkey forever and a day. No problem.
I must say, I did a splendid job. Last year, I overcooked and nearly choked to death trying to nonetheless enjoy my dinner. I should have cut my losses and made cat food out of that one last year, however. But not this year. I did a superb human grade job.
