Christmas Time…Turkey Time! December 25, 2006
Posted by O.J. in Chatter, Food.trackback
It’s that time of year when households across the globe serve up a large succulent turkey, filled with a delicious blend of stuffing, complimented with a wide array of scrumptious side dishes.
Unlike regular folks, the four words that come to my mind whenever Christmas roles around each year: turkey, stuffing, gravy, and mashed potatoes.
I usually watch eyes wide open, mesmerized, as someone grabs a large knife and carefully slices the turkey open, only to reveal a treasure chest of stuffing within. When asked whether I’d prefer red or white meat, I always request white. The large, white, tender piece of turkey breast is placed on my plate, which is then topped with spoonfuls of stuffing and mashed potatoes, and finally flooded with mouth-watering gravy. I may add some vegetables if the space on my plate permits.
Serving after serving, until ironically, the turkey stuffing eventually stuffs me!
Wishing all my readers a very Merry Christmas!
