The dishwasher is running the 2nd of three loads (14 people + 3 kids). Not
only is today's turkey carcass in the stock pot, I rummaged through the
freezer and found all the backbones of spatchcocked chickens and turkeys for
the last 6 months.

I'm thinking turkey soup and turkey gumbo. And next year, a small turkey
and a leg of lamb instead of a 20 lb'er.
