I will be doing 2 turkeys with standard trimmings.  With Canadian Thanksgiving roughly 2 months ago, it is fine for another bird.

Double the birds as we host my wife's family on Boxing Day, and I would rather cook 2 in one day, vs 1 each day for 2 days.  I also prefer the flavour of 2 smaller birds vs 1 25 pounder!

As for cold in March, baby you have been away too long!  The cold fun begins in the coming 2 weeks.

Mind you, after I lived in Taiwan for 2 years I found it chilly back here too.  But, that was 15 years ago now.

Centercut beef tenderloin cooked in a beer cooler.  I haven't sprung for the real sous vide machine yet so I am filling an insulated ice chest with the hot water and dropping the meat in that.  Then sear with my blowtorch.

I have a mushroom ragout and creamed spinach to go with it.  And a port wine sauce.

Should be interesting.

Cheers.

My sister is having Christmas dinner tomorrow afternoon.  We usually do heavy hors d'oeuvres, filet mignon & shrimp.  This year it's just hors d'oeuvres.  My contribution: bacon wrapped scallops, sausage & peppers, some small steak rolls from Serpes bakery  :D and my wife's magic cookie bars for dessert. 

That should hold us until the Packers game at 8pm.
