Yes, you read that right - so you think I've gone off the deep end...turned the calendar to soon - well, I didn't.
But what I did to was to buy a three-pound turkey roast at the grocery store this morning. When I got up at six am it was 59 degrees and hasn't warmed up much even though the sun is strong. To me it seems like a good day to roast something in the oven and when I saw the fresh turkey roast I grabbed it.
So today's dinner, and you're all invited, will be turkey, mashed potatoes/gravy, corn, dinner rolls and I'll have to come up with something sweet for later.
I'm in heaven just thinking of this delicious dinner....
Photo is mine but that's a whole turkey breast I cooked at an earlier time.

The taste of food depends on how you season it. I can make chicken that's bla or chicken that's tasty.

@Drosophila I prefer chicken - I would eat chicken almost every day if I could.

I just happened to see it when I walked by the chicken and said, what the heck, let's get it.

@AbbyGreenhill ....It's hard for me to make it through the year until Thanksgiving without some. I usually have to have a turkey and provolone sandwich sometime to tide me over.

We also through out the year (not for any special reason) will bake or roast a turkey and have the trimmings.

We really enjoy turkey and some days turning on the oven is a good thing.

I have turkey in the fridge now - enough for tomorrow and then some.

No - probably won't have turkey for that holiday - we like to color outside the box - maybe a prime rib or shrimp dinner.

@AbbyGreenhill Surely the Pilgrim Fathers did not breed cattle or fish for shrimps.

@Asylum That's their problem LOL in my 69 years I've had at least 55 turkey dinners on Thanksgiving and that's enough fowl for anyone.

A 3 pounder . . . I can't recall seeing little whole ones like that . . . I normally see pieces or super big ones which would be way to big for us. Is that available all year where you are?
Thank you for the invite . . . maybe I can bring a salad?

I could eat turkey any time of the year and yours looks delicious. Set a place for me at the table and I'll bring a pumpkin pie

We are Celebrating on Saturday night with additional friends invited for dinner....thankfully i don't cook, i paint. Hubby is the chef in my house. it will be delicious!
