As far as I know we don't have the five-bird thingy in our stores but we do have the dark/light turkey rolls
which aren't bad if one slathers them with gravy and serve with nice veggies.
I haven't had parsnips for years...on my Dad's farm we had them plus rutabagas.
I hope your not coming down with the flu...its going around here like wildfire.
Take care and hope you start the New Year feeling better.
Cheers!!!
