[Today’s run: 3.5 miles]<\/p>\n
My\u00a0 wife had the turkey all prepped and in the oven when she left to meet her running group for a 13 mile run this morning.\u00a0 I got myself going on the shed project.\u00a0 I finally got the air conditioner hole cut and the AC unit installed.\u00a0 That’s a load off my mind.<\/p>\n
So the bird cooked in the oven for 2 hours totally unsupervised.\u00a0 But he\/she did a good job.\u00a0 The skin was nicely brown.\u00a0 I sprayed some cooking spray on some aluminum foil\u00a0 and put it over the top and just let it roll.\u00a0 About 10 I started peeling potatoes and got them boiling.\u00a0 And I started boiling the giblets and neck.\u00a0 By 10:30 the temperature popper on the bird had popped and I turned off the oven and just let it coast while I mashed the potatoes.\u00a0 Around 11 I moved the bird out of the oven, draining off the liquid and wrapping it up, roaster and all,\u00a0 in some aluminum insulating stuff.\u00a0 Then I made the giblet gravy.\u00a0 Soon after that the wife returned home and we got ourselves over to Starkville shortly after noon.<\/p>\n
There we met with the inlaws and had a very tasty meal.\u00a0 It was topped off with fresh apple pie ala mode.\u00a0 Every hollow place in my body is stuffed with very good food.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
