Used to be practiced in the UK, but not with large quantities of alcohol, since wine doesn't really come into the picture there.<BR/><BR/>Canadian Thanksgiving seems actually well timed to allow you to recover from it by the time Christmas arrives. The best turkey I had in Michigan was cooked by a Chinese postdoc - slowly for a long time, then hot for a short time, Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22973357.post-1160433049483865032006-10-09T18:30:00.000-04:002006-10-09T18:30:00.000-04:00Hi Paul, Hi Uncle,Glad you liked the high percenta...Hi Paul, Hi Uncle,<BR/><BR/>Glad you liked the high percentage turkey :-) Currently, I am also an involuntary teetotaler, since I was given only a beginners drivers licence. Does the tee-totaling extend to cooking recipes? I mean, I know quite a lot of sauces with red or white wine, and cookies with rum etc. One can use artificial flavour, but it's not really the same. <BR/><BR/>And yes, I think Sabine Hossenfelderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06151209308084588985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22973357.post-1160423542136747262006-10-09T15:52:00.000-04:002006-10-09T15:52:00.000-04:00Bee , thats the best..i mean THE_BEST!.. descripti...Bee , thats the best..i mean THE_BEST!.. description of a thanksgiving Turkey shoot I have ever heard :)<BR/><BR/>I miss Canada weather more than anything, but I guess the lifestyle is also what I crave, anyway, hope you had a nice thanksgiving,paul.<BR/><BR/>P.S knock one back for me, as I am tee_total !Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22973357.post-1160421426333178392006-10-09T15:17:00.000-04:002006-10-09T15:17:00.000-04:00I would naughtily translate Fressfest as Gourmanda...I would naughtily translate <I>Fressfest</I> as Gourmanday.<BR/><BR/>Get the biggest turkey you can, 750 mls of DeKuyper "Peachtree Schnapps," a big syringe and an 18 ga. hypodermic needle. Suck the schnapps into the syringe, torque on the needle, shoot up the turkey all over - especially the breast meat. 750 mls does a 20 lb turkey. Fantastic results.
