Twitter Me This...

I am going to start asking twitter users a daily question. I don't know if they will make sense...but I will try anyway.

If you would like to answer today's question you can reply here or follow my Tweet and answer there!

Today's question is:

Is it still ok to use Mrs. or is it no longer used in the business world? Mom requires Mrs. but teachers require Ms.

Thoughts?

Turkey Soup

After Thanksgiving, Christmas, and for whatever other holiday that I demand Turkey...my mother typically ends up making Turkey Soup. It is a good way to use the entire bird, and the soup can be frozen for later dates when you feel like eating Turkey again.

After my foray into Turkey cooking this week (first time turkey virgin...that Bird was purty) I realized that I had half a bird left and nothing to do with it. Here is my mother's/my recipe for Turkey Soup...or Turkey Soupen if you want to get fancy with it. And it's HEALTHY!

• De-Meat the Turkey (technical term) and set aside: Should be 1/2 or 1 pound
• 36 oz (or 24 depending on how much meat you have) of Low Sodium Chicken Stock
• Chopped Celery: about 3 or 4 sticks
• Chopped carrots: about 3 large
• Chopped Yellow onions: 1 whole large
• 2 tsps minced garlic
• Bay leaf
• Basil (2 tsp)
• Salt (1/2 tsp)
• Pepper (1 tsp)
• Onion Powder (1 tsp)
• Celery salt (1/2 tsp)
• 1/2 Bag No Yolk Egg Noodles
  

Put the chicken stock, vegetables, and all spices in a large pot and let it simmer on medium until it boils. Let it boil for about 3 or 4 min and then add the turkey. Let it come back to a boil and boil 4 to 5 min. Add noodles and let it come back to a boil for another 5 minutes. Serve or let cool and then freeze.

This recipe also works by boiling a chicken in water with some whole carrots, celery, onion, and a turnip until the chicken is cooked. This will make your stock. Then take the chicken out, toss the veggies, and follow the recipe (excluding the use of chicken stock since you have already made it)
from there on.

I like my turkey and chicken in chunks, but mom likes to shred hers. It is up to you! The power is in your hands.

Hmm

Realized the title of my post is "Chicken Chicken...Neck" when I am talking about Turkey.

I'll let it stand.

Chicken Chicken...Neck

Well America, here is today's story.

So I'm roasting my turkey...

That's right. I roasted a turkey today...and I start feeling like I want a snack.

I had an apple for breakfast and I don't particularly care for plums, so those were out.

Wheat thins weren't doin' it for me...I wasn't feeling toast at all...and everything else in the pantry was too healthy to eat. It was as I was taking the boiling giblets off the eye (makes a good broth for gravy), that the revelation came to me. I figured why the hell not.

I plopped that turkey neck out of the broth and onto a plate...got a napkin...and tried it! I was surprised. It tasted...not unlike chicken. Once I forgot it was a neck, I was in hog heaven - or chicken as it were.

Not too shabby America...not too shabby.

I DVR'ed Twitter

Does anyone really know what Twitter is?

I mean I have heard that it is a mini blog...but I am just not sure how accurate that is. All these @yowchamagowcha and @mrsbocefus are confusing. I mean do people actually see it when you do all this crap? Or is it just for my own mindless entertainment.

Which I have no problem with if it is. My mindlessness constantly needs to be maintained. I find that King Baby and other comedy shows that I DVR on the television only take up about 10 hours of the day. The other two hours my brain needs something to not focus on!

Speaking of DVR...

Why is it that every time I watch a recording...I forget to fast forward the commercials. I don't particularly pay attention to any of them...but I have been trained to listen to the droning. I was really surprised when I first got the DVR a few weeks ago (yeah I'm behind) and realized how little of a television show is the actual show. Most of it is commercials.

I feel so used. It hurts.

Wait...that's dinner.

Someone start following this damn blog.

Please...
