Does everyone have help with cooking and cleaning or are you on your own. I am lucky I have help

What I did was look up how long it takes for the size bird that I had. I set my turkey in the bottom of my fridge 2-3 day before so it can start to thaw. on day of I preheat oven for 325. I took soft butter with seasoning that I like ( garlic, onion, salt, black pepper) and stuffed it under the skin and rubbed it on top. I don't like stuffing so I don't stuff mine. stick in oven and let it cook for 3-5 hr depending on size. once it comes out let it rest before cutting into. when juices run clear its cooked thru. I like allrecipes and foodnetwork for ideadoodles wrote:How to cook a turkey

That is hilarious! KFC and cake?!? Sounds like my kind of holiday meal when I was in college and not going home...that one made me laugh!katiesquilts wrote:This is true...but I'm pretty sure I'll be following the Japanese tradition of KFC and cake on Christmas, so I want to do at least ONE holiday right!lucymn11 wrote:Sounds like a fun challenge! I've only been to Japan once but I LOVED it. If I'm ever back there during Thanksgiving, I'd probably just give up and stick to traditional Japanese food

Happy Thanksgiving everybody!
What is grief, if not love persevering?
Grief is just love with no place to go.

What did everyone do with the left overs, if there was any. I have taken mine for lunches at work this weekend

I still have some turkey sitting on my counter... I know it's disgusting, but it's actually so cold here without A/C on that it's just as good as putting it in the fridge!Amcdanel86 wrote:What did everyone do with the left overs, if there was any. I have taken mine for lunches at work this weekend
I also froze some of the smaller pieces that I cut off. Honestly we have so many leftovers, but we're so sick of eating the same thing so we're basically just avoiding them.

The only thing that didn't turn out as well were my yams because I don't think I cooked them long enough. But my potato salad was to die for! I really outdid myself on that! The turkey was pretty good, but next year I'm going to do better. I'm going to find a better pan for the purpose and research ways to spice it up. For Christmas we're having ham, so I won't get to practice then. Anyway, continued next year!
I am looking for a good potato salad recipe for Christmas. what did you put in your that made it a great success
