My Disastrous Thanksgiving Recipe

So for Thanksgiving dinner yesterday, my wife was willing to do all the cooking except for the turkey itself. I thought I'd try something a bit "different". It turned out exactly the way I planned it, but it was still a disaster!

My wife told me to use some foil over the bird "so it doesn't get too brown," and that gave me an idea. All I did was use some strategic foil! It turned out perfectly.

But when I brought the bird to the table, things went nuts pretty quickly. My mother-in-law fainted. My father-in-law (the minister) said "See, Martha?! I've been telling you he's going to hell!"

The kids couldn't stop giggling.

But, of course, my wife still isn't speaking to me.

I've pretty much been banished to the den -- but that's where the computer is, so at least I can upload the photo.

(For the visually impaired, the photo shows a roasted turkey "lounging" on the plate. The foil kept certain areas from getting browned... in the shape of a bikini.)
