as DISGUSTING as it is, i use MARROW bones to make my soup broth
with....... i put a couple tablespoons of vinegar in the water to leech
as much from the bones/marrow as i can, then the soup broth goes outside
(whoa, it's too hot to do that just yet! and it's January??) and all the
fat gets skimmed off the top

usually i have 'gelatin' remaining for the broth........ that then gets
made into stoup

the dogs get the remnants of the bones for dental health ( they enjoy
it...... i mean beef hip bones/soup bones, not chicken bones!)

but yes, the turkey bones go on tomorrow and i have a couple quarts of
chicken broth to go with that........ no one will know i used chicken
broth to extend the turkey broth (they would notice if i diluted it with
water)

dang, surgery is on barley beef soup day......... it's $2.50 at a local
restaurant....... it's my treat every so often and i missed the
last........... 5 weeks! LOL

maybe they will have Mulligatawny soup at the hossie (ya, they can make
good food! LOL, just gotta know what will be 'mystery meat' versus
'food' LOL
