Turkey talk

Christmas 2009

     If you've been following my posts from the beginning, you know we started talking about food VERY early on. And if you've been following my instructions, you've probably made a really good dent in the non-perishable part of the list. This would be a really good time, to do a refresher list, see what you've covered already, and what is still waiting to be picked up. We're not at perishables or frozen food just yet, but we are getting close. 

     This post is however about (potentially) the main part of your biggest meal, the Turkey. IF you're getting a turkey this year, you have an assignment. If you're ordering a fresh Turkey, now would be a good time to do that. Getting it done early basically covers you later, and let's be honest, the butcher is gonna like you way more than some one who pops in December 18th. 

     If you're going with a frozen turkey, don't get it yet, but do consider where you're going to keep it. If you have a place all set to go, you're all set. If you're like me, and you just have your freezer, start emptying the freezer now. Avoid buying stuff that will be stored in there for more than a week, and start using up the stuff you have in there. Again if you're like me, you're getting to a point where your freezer is going to be mostly for Christmas.
