Well….where was I? Oh, I think I may have eaten some bad chicken for lunch…it tasted okay but as soon as I was done, my stomach went into spasms and I have been nauseous and that is still with me three hours later…an antacid helped some but it is still twisted into knots and I’m pretty uncomfortable….and I am just getting warm again after 5 hours under a blanket…it probably wasn’t such a good idea to go out on the bike and get soaked in 41 degree weather…by the time I got back here my leather gloves were even soaked through along with my shoes…and the way I have been feeling a little off lately, adding this to it tipped me over the edge and I feel pretty crappy…not virus crappy but a little crappy and I think cutting back on food to get ready for t-day hasn’t helped…I do need more than 1,000 calories a day even when I don’t ride and I have been down around there the past few days….I sure hope I feel like eating turkey tomorrow…I mean brineing it with brown sugar, rosemary, bay leaves, peppercorns, thyme, and sage smells so damn good just in the pan that it would be a shame to not be able to eat….and I’m going to slather the\u00a0 breast under the skin with a compound rosemary butter and then use the rest of the stick of butter and rosemary to coat the entire skin so it will be crispy….and putting carrots, celery, bay leaves, and maybe two slices of smoked sausage in the cavity as it cooks is going to make great gravy for the mashed potatoes,too, so I am going to be pissed if I’m not hungry….it still makes me laugh that I have a 16 pound turkey just for me….that’s bigger than the ones I used to make when I hosted the “orphans thanksgiving” many years back…I miss those days…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
