Shipping Off

Well, despite my best efforts to fry a turkey this Thanksgiving, it looks like it’ll have to wait.  I visited numerous stores today, and every single one was sold out of anything even resembling a turkey fryer.

It does work out ok though - Ali and I figured out that we can fit two turkeys in my smoker, so we’ll have to settle for delicious smoked turkey instead.

So, yeah - I’m gonna do it.  Fry a turkey.  That is, of course, if it doesn’t rain.  I’ve been told that a vat of hot oil and rain don’t mix very well.

Does anyone have any good recipes?

Why must all the restaurants ruin perfectly good fish by making some sort of ’signature’ preparation…  I’ve been searching for real, simple, fresh fish.  I’m in the middle of the ocean!

Tomorrow, we’re going to try a tapas place down the road.  Supposedly MUCH better.
