Thinking about Thanksgiving

In a moment of (insanity??) generosity, I volunteered to cook the Thanksgiving turkey for the gathering that is traditionally held at the home of one of Jon's many relatives. I haven't cooked any poultry larger than a grilled chicken breast in years. To get ready for this endeavor (which will occur the day before...and should I have a trial turkey before that???) I had to purchase some new cookery. At least that part was fun!
