Eagle you might try just buying and roasting one turkey breast, all white meat and enough left over for sandwiches or salad. This way you get your turkey and everyone else is happy too. Plus they sell turkey breast all year long so it can be eaten anytime... I do that for myself because I like having it around for sandwiches and can't abide that pressed crap sold in most deli's.

I posted a dessert for Chocolate Trifle right before this one if anyone is interested in a scrumptous and easy holiday dessert.

Oop's almost forgot the question asked. Orchid for Thanksgiving it's always a free range turkey, no preservatives or triptofan. Then for Christmas it's either a leg of lamb or prime rib roast with all the trimmings. Then on New Years Eve I make a huge spagetti and meat ball and italian sausage dinner, with italian salad and garlic bread. It's Spumoni ice cream over biscotti's for dessert. I think I just gained a pound writing this out...
