We are finally this week working on our old house to get it ready for sale. Tony is starting by getting the holes patched and ready for paint. We still have a bunch of stuff over there that needs to be moved, sold or donated. I have a feeling most of the stuff will not [...]

Curried Turkey Carcass Soup
OMG! Have you ever wished for something for a long time and it finally happens? That for me is the house being finished. Well, I am finishing my last task this week before the final cleaning at the end of the week. I installed the final floor this past weekend and Tony is finishing up [...]
Bharat and Cranberry Turkey Leg Stew
This week, I'm mostly took a break from working on the house for Thanksgiving preparations. However, I did want to come up with what to do with the dark meat before the next weekend. Instead of looking up a recipe, I decided to develop one from some of my favorite fall flavors and a wonderful [...]
Moghrabieh
I had other plans on what I was going to cook this week. I have some turkey legs I need to use up. I am still working through some meat that was in the broken freezer. I was originally going to do chicken and dumplings. I still will. However, I watched an episode from Middle [...]
Turkey Stew Provencal
As I have done in years past, I take the dark meat from a whole turkey and make it into a stew. Usually I cook the breast portion for Thanksgiving. This year, I didn't get the chance because I was too busy. However, I did find a low sodium whole turkey that I am cooking [...]
Caribbean Style Braised Turkey Legs
I hope you had a socially distanced Thanksgiving. I know it's not been ideal, but I can safely say you want your family to be around for future holidays. Our small group quarantined for 14 days and did single serving dishes and kept our distance on the day of. My mother didn't come down to [...]
Vermont Style Chili
Right now I am back to cleaning cluttered spaces. We have two sheds that got VERY cluttered before by in-laws moved out. Since this house is Tony's childhood home, cleaning out this part will be hard for him. Since his Dad passed away, there are many memories in the stuff. This leads to keeping too [...]
Spicy Hummus Turkey Chili
This week I wanted something simple and comforting. I haven't done too many recipes for chili so far, but I found one I had to try. Our lives have been pretty busy lately, but we took some time to visit our families (socially distanced, of course). Make sure when you visit your loved ones, you [...]
Turkey Pho
Now that I have that lovely turkey frame, I needed something fun to do with it. I am surprised I never though of Pho. Pho (that's pronounced like duh, not like go) is a great brothy comforting soup that is spicy and meaty and perfect for a turkey frame. When looking for a recipe to [...]
Turkey Asado
I decided to take a turkey out of the freezer this week. I have two turkeys in my freezer. It was hard to pass up 37 cents a pound around Thanksgiving. Now I need to make space. A turkey takes a lot of space. I am going to start out by deconstructing the turkey. If [...]
