Back to "life"

The Thanksgiving (also known as "Eat Everything In Sight") holiday has ended.

Surprisingly, even with an 18 pound turkey

we don't have that many leftovers.

Which is a bummer.

I was hoping to get out of cooking for awhile.

LOL

HEY!!!  BIG NEWS!!!

Last night I made turkey noodle soup.

And it didn't taste like water someone waved a turkey over.

It was actually YUMMY!

Good thing, too.  I made a BIG pot.

Maybe the reason we don't have much turkey left is I got lazy.

I didn't feel like "picking" the turkey after the meal.

So I tossed the entire carcass in the stock pot.

Including all the back meat.

Simmered it on the stove.

For about 36 hours.

Maybe longer.

I'm not sure.

Last night I picked out all the bones.

Ended up with a gallon ziplock bag full of meat.

And skin.

And innards.

It's for the dogs.

Also a milk jug (washed out) full of turkey stock.

Also for the dogs.

I still have turkey stock in my freezer from the last turkey.

Also.

The gravy rocked.

Just saying.

Meanwhile - here's a video to make you smile.

Has nothing to do with anything.

And then he tried again.

This is what we do for fun around here.

Have a great Monday!

(I'm doing a little Cyber Monday shopping...)
