Came across a couple sites with actual questions that have been asked:


So I’m looking at a turkey from 1969 sitting here in my father’s freezer… any tips on the best way to cook a 30-year-old bird?


How do I roast my turkey so it gets golden brown tan lines — in the shape of a turkey bikini?


I carved my turkey with a chainsaw… is the chain grease going to adversely affect my turkey?


It’s my first Thanksgiving and I have a tiny apartment-sized oven… how much will my turkey expand when cooking?


My turkey thawed on my lap… can I eat it?


My cat started eating my raw turkey—-what do I do?


How can I thaw my turkey on my car luggage rack safely?


Why do I have to cut the legs off?

Those are hilarious!  And just a sampling of the calls that come in.  Can you imagine the laughs those operators have with one another?


You gotta think that they get a bunch of prank calls mixed-in with the serious ones.



Grace & Peace & Love to you all -
