First slide the "ankles" out from under, and then the tail, unfold it, and then the rest of it pops out. I hate those plastic things and they are so disrespectful to the turkey! Let us know of any other questions, or call me.

Thanks, FRiend! You're better than the Butterball hotline by far!
Happy Thanksgiving Brokiegivin', everyone!

Yes, Thanksgiving is over, it about 90 minutes.
Had a nice meal with my family. Turkey, sweet potatoes, mac & cheese, corn, spinach and artichoke, stuffing, corn casserole, meatballs & sausage in marinara.
Of course, dessert was pumpkin pie, pecan pie, and a chocolate cake.

So wait, are you saying your corn and spinach and artichoke and stuffing were four different dishes? Or just one -- a stuffing with corn, spinach and artichokes? Or three -- spinach and artichokes together plus corn and stuffing separately?

Ours were almost exactly the same. My son's boss gave him a free huge chocolate cake -- really good, with chocolate mouse layers. I bought pies because with everything else I didn't have time to make any. I was going to go with pumpkin and pecans, but at the last minute I saw sweet-potato pie, which is what I normally would make, so I grabbed that instead.

Wow, speed dining! Our T-day dinner was five hours! How did your family manage that?

That sounds wonderful, friend. I have occasionally done Italian Christmases and Easters that were similar. Was the meatball/marinara served over pasta?

You're welcome, friend! It was only because I had just cooked a turkey and it was fresh in my mind.
