Thanksgiving 2009 in Michigan

We finally got a turkey sufficiently large as not to be embarrassing - 36 pounds. It cooked in about 7 hours, so we ate by noon (thanks to Vittoria getting up at her normal time (early for the rest of us) to start the bird). We had a few leftovers. Unfortunately, I was not very good at getting the cheesecloth off the bird. I will have to practice. I need a haircut.
