We got a BIG turkey.

-

We've been enjoying our meat share from Chestnut Farms and leaped at the chance to get one of their heirloom turkeys. As we will have many Thanksgiving celebrations that are NOT at our house, we just got turkey. A LOT of turkey.


There is a GALLON jug of maple syrup for size reference. :) Tonight we will cut and freeze this baby in piece and I expect it to meet our turkey needs for quite some time.

In other news, we've been busy Building an amazing cabinet (and been busy priming and painting it since) keeping up with schoolwork (as best we can) and getting ready for the upcoming festivities.

I'm looking forward to catching up with you all the next time I have a moment to breathe.

  2. 33 and then a little :D Joe spent a couple of hours cutting it up and putting it into gallon freezer bags. :) I think we ended up with eight bags full.
