Nov 27Happy thanksgiving, all you nerds and nerdettes.
I am thankful for my wonderful family and friends, for my fellow Alert Nerd bloggers (also great friends), for this lil’ nerdy community I’m fortunate to share in virtually via Twitter and comments and e-mails, for a decent job, for occasional freelance, for plentiful comic books, for NIMOY, and for Giada De Laurentiis, who better not be leading me foul with her Herbes de Provence and Citrus turkey recipe, or I will lose my shit.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and all of the Nerds.
And good luck with the turkey, it sounds fantastic.
I did a citrus brine for my bird last year and it was great. It doesn’t seem like it would go well with turkey, but it does.
Nerds? I am NOT a nerd. Now I must return to my post Thanksgiving feast of leftover gak and bloodwine.
I didn’t really even taste the citrus–stuffed the bird with onion, lemon, and orange, and didn’t taste any of it.
It was just pretty damn juicy. I left it in a bit too long so the outer portions were a bit dry, but the innards…juicy.
Also, quite spectacular gravy, if I do say so myself.
