Happy Monday Everybody!!!!
Do I seem to have a little more pizazz in my voice today? Your right...
I'm off today and only work for two days this week!!! Plus it's TURKEY WEEK!!!! I'll be heading to see family for Thanksgiving, where my aunt prepares quite the feast. She is one of two people I know who can follow a Julia Child recipe...her idol I suppose! I hate to eat such a majestic bird, but I only really enjoy it once a year plus any left overs. And please make sure your turkey if possible is from a reputable turkey farm, where they are raised with love and care.
Enjoy all your time off, pilgrim!
ReplyDeleteI, too, love a shortened work week -- I work just two days myself -- followed by a fantastic meal and all kinds'o'cocktails!
ReplyDeleteHey Bob, do we think Froggy will put pilgrim hats of Tar and Abbey?
DeleteThis is why I miss your blog.......such lovely holiday traditions and cool pics! Happy Monday yourself!
ReplyDeleteI love this post! Such gorgeous Tom turkeys! And I can barely hear Julia giving lessons,lol.
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday Mistress! I have always loved Julia Child but could never master her recipes. What a festive collection this week.
ReplyDeleteDear old Julia...what a cooking legend! Love all the turkey shots too, never really noticed how beautiful they are. Now I'm going to feel guilty......
ReplyDeletelove the turkeys, but why did I expect some man meat???
ReplyDeleteThat last shot is a good one,lol!

ReplyDeleteRemember when cooking shows were about learning and expressing gratitude for food? Now it's all competition and flair.
I miss Julia. Nice touch for this holiday Mistress.
I love cooking, this is one of my favorite meals of the whole year. Julia...... one of the best chefs in American history. The woman pretty much single handedly introduced French cuisine to the United States.
ReplyDelete.Love all the turkey business going on!!!! I follow several of Julia's recipes, the easier ones! One quality I admired in Julia was that she did not turn herself into an industry...hawking cookware, jewelry, and whatever else these new "celeb: chefs come up with. And worse...when they acquire a talk show and discuss matters that have no relevance to their cooking abiity...love matters and fashion make overs discussed by Rachel Ray ...really??!! God help us
ReplyDeleteHere! Here! While Julia was on tv and I remember her, I think Martha Stewart is what I have for my generation. I can really get into her cooking and baking, even though she is get at everything. Her early shows were just that, cooking and how to entertain and set a nice table.
DeleteI don't trust Martha. She doesn't drink enough.
DeleteHappy Monday! Love all the Tom Turkeys! Now don't mind if I grab 1 or 6 of those there tarts!
ReplyDeleteThat is no way to talk about my houseboys!
DeleteCan't I just kill one of the free range ones in my neighborhood?
ReplyDeleteGurl yes! I almost drove into three of them pulling into my condo complex just the other day!!!! And save the feathers for a swank ensemble! I am very hesitant to ever buy a frozen one again.
DeleteEnjoy your time off. I'm stuck working four days. But... I'm in the processing of making sure my work weeks for the rest of the year are 38 hours max. :-)
ReplyDeleteyes, that tiered dessert display looks yummy!
