I woke excited to get my hands sticky with turkey. With my recipe in hand and ingredients at the ready, I practically create a timeline to ensure everything would be done at the precise time. I was ready to get some turkey cookin on. This year, I did something a little different for the family. Stuffing my turkey with oranges, I got the idea from the lady sitting next to me at my new job. I took the cheesecloth idea off a randomly watched Martha Stewart Thanksgiving special. Sometimes the best recipe is a combination. After a temperature gauge glitch (special note - always read the directions to see if you can put the temperature gauge inside of the oven and close the door *we found out ours could not after the fact*) and a quick trip to the store, we were in business. Probably the most moist turkey I have ever had!
I have so much to be thankful for this year but most of all I am blessed to be close to family to share these holidays. Being away for a year makes you crave your family during the holidays. May your Thanksgiving be as great as ours!
