Gracie dear, we love turkey. When we lived in Massachusetts and had a pool (with the attendant relatives and their wonderful children), we had maybe seven or eight turkeys a year. Kids loved it, and of course, it feeds a crowd.
Now we have maybe three or four, and smaller ones at that. I prefer a whole bird since I love the dark meat.
The next day, generally leftovers reheated. But after that, turkey, stuffing, gravy and cranberry sandwiches on a crusty and chewy bread. Then maybe with pasta and gravy. Then soup. I love soup.
My stuffing (which isn't actually stuffed) is my mother's recipe and is legendary. I have six brothers and sisters who all love mom's stuffing. She made so much of it (everyone wanted a container (frozen) to take home), that she cleaned the kitchen sink with Ajax, then rinsed it all out and cleaned the sink again with bleach, then rinsed it out and made GALLONS of stuffing in the sink and packaged it into aluminum containers to reheat in the oven.
Now I'm getting hungry. But not $71.00 hungry... We almost always get it on sale.
