Adam, great post. But two questions have continued to plague me, in spite of this brilliant treatment. What I need to know, and what inquiring minds desperately seek to understand, is: a) Really, how funky is your chicken? and, b) Just how loose is your goose?
'Cause if your turkey is that moist, I can't even fathom the funky-osity of which your chicken must partake, and the sheer looseness of your goose. I mean, if a goose is THAT loose, how does it even keep it together? Huh? Riddle me this...

Who knew Adam could play the piano? Encore!

Thanks Meg! Good thing I didn't employ my piano skillz in our Battle Foie Gras or you'd be toast! (Brioche toast with sour cherry preserves.)

Adam, I think you meant "Sour grapes?" Should I correct your comment?

Please feature more videos of your grandmother. I'm serious, she looks like one rockin' lady. I'd also love a copy of her recipe for apple cobbler, it looked awesome.

Your grandmother can sure shake a leg!
Glad to see I wasn't the only one to post holiday dancing footage.

Awww gramma's too cute! And look at you with that piano! I love this post, most entertaining one I've seen in a while. Very nice job with the turkey! :)

Very entertaining post, but what about gravy? That can hold things up at the last minute and there's never enough.

Adam, I enjoyed your Thanksgiving dinner re-telling very much! I love the comic book approach. The meal sounded delicious, yummmmm...
And hooray for brining! :)

I told him not to brine the turkey! Did he listen? Obviously he didn't.
Congrats on opening day!
