Carlo, my man! Long time no post!
I was thinking time was a little tight to get everything done by Thursday!
Hah. My dad called yesterday afternoon and he's coming early bringing his new wife, his child by a former relationship, her child by a former relationship and they'll be here before I come home from work today!
Even with massive assistance we can't get everything done before he shows up!
But it's family time, right? So we'll roll with it.
Sheeeesh, it can still be done if your bird is thawed already.. You can still quick thaw it if you need to, but I think you would do yourself and everyone else to visit you favorite restaurant.. We did it, and some restaurants will still serve you the whole bird, and let you carve it at the table.. Good luck and Happy Thanksgiving.. ping me if you decide to tackle it.. :)
