Just bought my bird from a local poultry farm. Got the smallest one they had (14.5lbs) since we will only have 7 people for dinner.

Also, do you do fresh or frozen?

20 pounder and an 8 pound turkey breast. Not sure how many people will actually be there, going to my mom's friends for the day. We were responsible for the bird.

Hungryman? No way, I'm going with the turkey slices from the deli. Hungryman takes too long to prepare.

Having dinner on Friday at the Chateau Du Cat Food - wife volunteered to cover a shift on Thursday for a co-worker who's taking her three-month-old first-born to Texas to meet the dad's side of the family. It also works out better for my in-laws from KY in terms of travel.

(No, Gardens35 - Muggsy ain't coming. She's having dinner with Prospective Husband Number 7's family. :huh:)

14 for dinner - 20-pound turkey, plus a smoked ham from City BBQ. Gotta have some leftovers to feed the out-of-town pack for the next two days.:cry:
