Way back when I was serving a plate of cookies around a room and got to my papa and offered him the plate and one slipped off and as I went to reach for the errant cookie dropped the rest in his lap.
I'm tame0 -
Like 8 million years ago at Christmastime I slept with my step-dad's brother's step-son, who I had just met that day. I don't know why. It was NOT GOOD. Yuck. Guy was a *kitten*. Too straight. Boring and lame in every possible way but super confident. Anyway, somehow this brought shame on our family -- shame on me, I guess, but not on him. Go figure!!!! I didn't really care. But pretty scandalous, right??? I was 18, I think. Probably drunk.
ETA: but not drunk enough2 -

My cat is amazingly not even noticing the tree. She's out door/ indoor though so she has time to take out energy. Shes also slightly afraid of heights so doesn't climb trees anyway. Knock on wood0

Have you ever tried spatchcocking a turkey? That's how I cook turkey now and it works great.
The best way to cook a turkey, according to scienceWhen the shape of the bird changes, so does the thermodynamic equation. Instead of having to cook a bird that's basically a sphere, making it difficult to keep the outside moist while the inside reaches a safe temperature, you're laying the bird flat.
It cooks more quickly and evenly. All of the skin is exposed to the heat, and that makes it crisper and thinner. The fat that drips below the split bird helps to create "a temperature buffer, protecting the meat from drying out."

Clicked on the link: Stopped reading when I read "spatchcock" a turkey.
I then turned to my coworker and asked if she has ever spatchcocked a turkey.3 -

It's a British word, because they're weird. But it's a legitimate way to cook a bird. Also, it's fun to say.1 -

When I was young and single, I invited a few friends over for turkey one Christmas, as my kids were with their dad, and I didn't want to be alone. We stuck the turkey in the oven about 10 am....it cooked ALL day, we drank ALL day...I kept checking this damn turkey, and no matter how much I drank, it wasn't cooking. Turned out I had put the tinfoil on backwards. We had a purple turkey that went in the garbage, and ate pizza instead!
Two years later, the power went out mid turkey. I think I was kinda drunk that day too!2 -

How does tinfoil change the color of the turkey? Also, see spatchcocking. It takes 45 - 90 minutes to cook a turkey (Depending on size and oven temperature). Prevents the white meat from drying out too.
Also, that's the best thing I ever heard. "...no matter how much I drank, it wasn't cooking."0 -

The shiny side deflects the heat....I had it shiny side up....at least we assumed that's why it never ended up cooking!0 -
