Hey! I wanted the dark meat!

Sorry! Sorry!

So sorry...

Posted by: Tenebris at January 1, 2009 9:39 PM

kind of a leg man myself... come to think of it, dark meat AND legs... and no apologies.

Your making me hungry, WOW that looks great.

Posted by: pacemakerdoug at January 1, 2009 9:45 PM

Did you have some environmentally sensitive potatoes to go with that?

Posted by: rebarbarian at January 1, 2009 9:47 PM

I love turkeys... 'cause they're made of MEAT!

Posted by: The Phantom at January 1, 2009 9:50 PM

Looks good to me.
We had maple butter turkey on Christmas. Talk about nummy.

Posted by: Osumashi Kinyobe at January 1, 2009 10:06 PM

That is so wrong Kate.

Posted by: robins111 at January 1, 2009 10:06 PM

I love it!

Tofu doesn't brown like that. Its airbrushed right?
And patent the mold. (it looks so real !!)

That wouldn't be the turkey brutally slaughtered while Sarah Palin was interviewed?

Congrats Kate on inviting the whole CHRC to your place for a New Years dinner...and with Ezra Levant as the Master of Ceremonies to boot!
Now if that wasn't a socially "Progressive" move then I don't know what is....'cept maybe to serve them goose as a way of telling them a profound fact.
Best of the new year to you Kate !

I love this bar.

Posted by: foobert at January 1, 2009 11:39 PM

Bet you get a few marrage preposals for this good eating bird. Us guys love a good feed.

What a glorious end for "Uncle Turk". If he resembled our fowl, he looked a lot better dressed and on the table than he did in the 'coup'!

Since cows eat grass and grass is kind of like a vegetable, if I eat a cow is that like eating processed vegetables?

I walk around in the summer time saying "how about this heat?"

Sometimes I park in handicapped spaces
While handicapped people make handicapped faces

Thank you for considering differently abled turkeys this Christmas.

Yes Phil, cows count as veggies. At my table, anyway.

Posted by: Enkidu at January 2, 2009 4:37 AM

My God- it has no head!!!

What a courageous, poor little turkey to go through such a short life with no head only to wind up as a tastyilicious platter!!!

Posted by: Frenchie77 at January 2, 2009 6:46 AM

In a semi-related vein... stop me if you've heard it.

Traveling salesman is invited to share dinner with backwoods farm family he is visiting. On the way to the house he passes a pig pen. Pig has a wooden leg.
"That there," says the farmer, "is a one outstandin' pig. Last summer he woke us up squealin' when the barn caught fire. And he fetched a rope when little Festus fell down the well, and chased the foxes away from the henhouse twice."
Salesman asks, "So why the wooden leg?"

"A pig that special you don't eat all at once."

Kate, according to the media, your turkey is made of plastic.

Posted by: JJM at January 2, 2009 8:07 AM

There has to be a Monty Python skit about this somewhere. Come on. help me out here!

Posted by: a different bob at January 2, 2009 8:24 AM

Spam Spam Spam Spam .....
And apply for an art grant. (it looks so real !!!)

Posted by: G at January 2, 2009 8:46 AM

Kate Kate.. you don't have to shoot a turkey. You just have to explain socialism and they will all run to a corner and suffocate.

Posted by: Speedy at January 2, 2009 9:22 AM

if god didn't want me to eat animals, why did she make them out of meat ?

Posted by: Fred at January 2, 2009 9:24 AM

Glad you can afford turkey out west, even if this guy had a tough time limping away from farmer Jones. Down east they charge $1.99/lb for futility turkeys. Cheaper to buy lobster here and pretend it's a turkey.

Posted by: Texas Canuck at January 2, 2009 9:39 AM

On the subject of lobsters...

A chef was showing a friend two boiling pots, one filled with American lobsters and the other with Canadian crustaceans. The American pot was covered while the Canadian pot was not.

When the friend asked why that was so, the chef replied "When a Canadian lobster tries to get out, the others pull him back in"

You can only call yourself progressive if you bought the physically challenged bird on purpose. Come on, fess up.

Posted by: glasnost at January 2, 2009 11:33 AM

And the turkey's name was either Eileen or Peg.

Posted by: Stephen at January 2, 2009 1:04 PM

A victim of global warming no doubt!

Posted by: Orlin at January 2, 2009 2:01 PM

Fine looking vittles Kate!
'Tis enough to make Big Bird weep.

Lean to far to the left and this is what you get.

Posted by: richfisher at January 2, 2009 3:30 PM

We had a special needs turkey for Christmas...It would seem after cooking it needs to be eaten 'specially cause it tastes good.

Posted by: Joe at January 2, 2009 3:39 PM

The "progressive" bit would be cooking it in the oven instead of deep-fryin'?

Posted by: Anthony at January 2, 2009 8:37 PM

...any turkey can cook.

*blink*

...ummm wait, that didn't come out right

;-)
