Roasted Free-Range Turkey with Pear Chestnut Stuffing
Serves 8 to 10 The stuffing may also be baked separately in a buttered casserole at 375° until heated throughout, thirty to forty-five minutes.
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
6 stalks celery, strings removed, cut into 1/4-inch dice
2 large onions, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1/4 cup fresh thyme leaves, finely chopped
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh sage leaves
1 tablespoon coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/2 pound roasted chestnuts, shelled and chopped
27 slices stale white bread (1 1/2 pounds), crusts removed and cut into 1/4-inch dice (about 8 cups), lightly toasted
1 1/4 cups Homemade Turkey Stock, or low-sodium canned chicken broth, skimmed of fat
4 unripe Anjou pears, cored, peeled, and cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 tablespoon salt
1 twelve- to fourteen-pound free-range turkey
1. Heat oven to 375°. Make stuffing: In a large skillet, melt 4 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add celery and onions; cook, stirring, until translucent, about 10 minutes. Stir in 2 tablespoons thyme, and sage, parsley, chestnuts, and bread. Add stock, 1/2 cup at a time, until bread becomes moist. Stir in pears; remove from heat.
2. Place remaining 1 stick butter, remaining 2 tablespoons thyme, and 1 teaspoon salt in food processor. Pulse until well combined; set aside.
3. Wash turkey, and pat dry. Place, breast side up, on a roasting rack set in a large roasting pan. Season turkey cavity with remaining 2 teaspoons salt. Fill cavity loosely with stuffing. Tie legs together with kitchen string. Fold neck flap over; secure with skewers. Rub thyme-butter mixture all over turkey.
4. Roast for 2 1/2 hours, basting often. Continue baking 30 to 45 minutes more, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh reads 180°. If turkey becomes too brown, tent it with aluminum foil. Let cool for 20 to 30 minutes before removing the stuffing and carving.
It's sickening isn't it? I'm hoping that someone from Georgia will be outraged at the blatant lie about the bill and contact the Georgia legislation.
Making up details like that is probably used to raise funds. Wouldn't that be against the law?
Check out her car!
Nailed!
Story here. Can't wait to see if a jury buys her sob story.
Mucho Kudos to the mechanic.
Her son, Chephrin Jennemann, 21, defended his mother, saying: "If she thought she had hit a person, she wouldn't have left the scene."
Bullbleep. Mr.B and I hit a wild pig at night on a rural road traveling at 55 mph, two of them ran in front of the car. We saw what kind of animal it was before we hit it and believe me, we got out to see the damage and toyed with the idea of a pig roast.
President Bush is speaking in Bucharest... They love him!
It's great that they're so supportive of our battle with Iraq. They truly understand about dictatorships. Perhaps the folks in Bucharest can help this slug realize that GWB isn't a moron.

T, Laura's suit is goregous! And so is she!
God has blessed us with this president and first lady.

The White House at War (Fred Barnes reviews Woodward & Sammon books)
From Sammon's book:
One of the episodes in "Fighting Back" brings back the sorrow of September 11. When Bush landed by helicopter to visit ground zero on September 14, he walked over to greet some firefighters. "When he got to the fourth one--a big, burly guy--the president stopped in his tracks," Sammon writes. "Two enormous tears were rolling down the brute's cheeks. Bush reached up and cupped the fireman's face in his hand. The scene prompted a number of grown men to break down." It would have been hard not to.
I'm asking Santa to bring me Sammon's book for Christmas.
