Grandpa Lauro and Grandma Conchita will be here in just under three weeks. The whole family is excited for them to be here. School is out for Lorena after today for over a month. Many in the neighborhood have put up their Christmas lights and the weather has turned decidedly colder. It surely is starting to feel like the holiday season. My goal is for this year is to cook a great turkey. I think I am going to try to do one for dinner for all the grandparents on December 23, and then another for New Year’s Eve at the Joyce’s. Last time I heard, we were still invited, but who knows, they might be getting fed up with such an opinionated and obstreperous crowd as us.
We are not opinionated and obstreporous Dad. We are… a peculiar people. 😀

I want a couch.
I am working on that.
OF COURSE YOU ARE STILL INVITED!!
cook the turkey in a plastic cooking bag… (Reynolds Oven Bags work great) and it won’t be dry.
I also turn the turkey upside down for the half hour cooling period after it is taken out of the oven.
Don’t use just any plastic bag. 😉 As I’m sure Christian could tell you, plastics can have very different properties and characteristics.
Thanks for the tip! I will go ahead and cook the turkey in one of those high quality plastic bags they give you when you get your groceries at Safeway–you know, the kind with the handles on it. That should work!
Obstreperous? New vocabulary word? Mom says she wants you bring Lauro & Conchita to this part of the state!!!
OK! It would be great to take them down on a train trip!
