Anybody know how to cook a turkey? Call me. I’ve never made one before. I’m pretty excited.
Here’s the menu for next Thursday at the San Francisco Rudd household:
Hors d’oeuvres - bruschetta, spinach artichoke dip, smoked salmon
Soup - jalapeno cream soup
Main course - Turkey
Sides - Stuffing, Corn casserole, spinach souffle, twice-baked potatoes, glazed carrots
Cheese plate - TBD
Dessert - pumpkin pie, chocolate pie, chocolate chip cake
Beverages - tea, wine, and coffee
Everything to be made FROM SCRATCH. Including the bread and the stuffing. Good thing I know how to make bread now. I’m trying to make my grocery store list. Also, if you’re in the city for Thanksgiving and you don’t have dinner plans, let me know. Cause it looks like we’re going to have plenty of food.
Mmmmm mmmmm. I’m for it.
can you send me your stuffing recipe? or post it?
sorry can’t return the favor by help w/ the turkey.
Turkey is easy… Want me to scan in a how-to and email it, or were you able to find something online? FYI, you’ll need some string!
Never mind, I just sent you a huge email about the turkey issue.

Also… SO glad the hat and scarf fit!
Never cooked a turkey before. I think last thanksgiving we did tacos and burritos for thanksgiving…..that’s was the best!
I can’t believe how much those lil people have grown!
Missing you guys already.
the key to a great turkey is to cook it upside-down. that’s how my mom does it, and her turkeys are to die for. all the dark meat juices run down into the breast while it cooks. the best part–no basting!!
Menu sounds amazing. I think I’ll fly to SF just to partake!
Come on out. We’ve got air mattresses! You’ll have to fight the Rudd boys for ‘em. Anyone else???
Mother’s recipe is in the Treadwell Family Cookbook
That food sounds great. Katy’s fam has a tradition of putting the Turkey on to cook, then going to the Zoo. So we are going to the San Francisco Zoo tomorrow. I was supprised it was open, but I guess most of the staff has to be there anyway to give all the Animals their Thanksgiving meal. I wonder what the Turkeys have?
