Happy Thanksgiving!

Question:

alt.religion.christian.roman-catholic, Mark (Mark <rogerpearse.caneatmy.smegma) said, directing the reply to alt.religion.christian.roman-catholic – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – johac lept out of the bushes shouting: (James)) said, directing the reply to alt.religion.christian.roman-catholic Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in the United States! They had a bit about deep fried turkeys on BBC Radio 4 this morning. http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/today/listenagain/ram/today5_turkey_20041… (realplayer required). Explains a lot, if you ask me…. There was a piece on the local news tonight about how the San Diego Fire Department is on alert today, because of the umber of houses set on fire each year from deep frying turkeys. I’ve never had it so I wouldn’t know, but roasting is fine with me. What on *earth has gotten into people they want to destroy a perfectly good turkey like that? Have you ever had deep-fried turkey?  It’s delicious :) In Texas, there’s a delicacy called turkey fries. It’s deep fried — deep fried turkey balls (as in nuts, testicles, cajones). I won’t eat that either.

Which reminds me: A man in a posh restaurant in Spain asks for something different. The waiter brings a plate of food with two large meat-ball looking "things" in gravy. "What the hell’s this?" he asks. "well Senor, after the bullfight and the bull has lost, we eat the bull, nothing is wasted, this is a delicacy, please try it". The man has a tentative taste, "Hmm, not bad". He tries some more, decides he likes it and asks what it is. The waiter tells him that "You English call them sweetbreads, the Bull’s balls". "I’m not English, I’m Welsh but no matter, if you’d told me that first I wouldn’t have tried it but I like it". He liked it that much he had them on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday as well. On the Friday the waiter asks him what he’d like and the man says he’d like "Some more bollocks please". When the waiter brings the plate there’s two very small oval lumps in the gravy. "Hey, where’s the bollocks mate" he says. The waiter replies "Well Senor, the bull doesn’t always lose".

Probably in a restaurant since I don’t want incinerate my kitchen. The two times I’ve had it were at a pre-Thanksgiving pot luck lunch at work. Apparently this guy’s grandfather did it in the garage and had this whole pully thing set up attached to the ceiling to lower the turkey into the hot oil.  A friend of my husband who lives in Texas also highly recommends the deep fried turkey.  He’s part of a huge family and they have three turkeys: one deep fried, one smoked and one roasted. Now smoked turkey, that sounds interesting too. I bet that the leftovers would make nice turkey sandwiches.

Yum, I bet they would! See, that’s the one thing about going to my inlaws for Thanksgiving that I hate.  No leftovers for us :( And I was really craving them – Oh well. — Robyn Resident Witchypoo #1557

– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Have you ever had deep-fried turkey?  It’s delicious :) I have better things to do with a turkey fryer.  Like making something to wash the turkey down with. Is that how Old Turkey is made? :-) Or are you thinking of Wild Turkey? :) Yeah. I got Wild Turkey confused with Old Crow. I need to keep my birdies and my bourbons straight. (Just between you me and the lamp post, I used to prefer Jack Daniels if I was going to drink that stuff.) Uck, I could never drink hard booze – Wine or beer only for me :)

About seven or eight years ago, I found out that I was drinking too much, so I had to cut it out. Now I limit myself to an occasional wine or beer with a meal. Once a year or so, I may have a mixed drink, but that’s about the extent of it. Getting old sucks.

I was lucky this year. I ate dinner at a friend’s who bought an impossibly large turkey. There was so much left over that they offered me a ‘care package’ which I accepted gladly. Cold turkey sandwiches.

Nah.  This Old Crow made beer, not ’shine. — "Christians, it is needless to say, utterly detest each other.  They slander each other constantly with the vilest forms of abuse and cannot come to any sort of agreement in their teachings.  Each sect brands its own, fills the head of its own with deceitful nonsense, and makes perfect little pigs of those it wins over to its side." – Celsus On the True Doctrine, translated by R.
