Nothing Bullet Sunday (#13) Style
Absolutely nothing. That’s what I’ve done today. We have a busy day of shopping ahead of us tomorrow. And we had a busy week last week, and another busy one coming up, so it feels good to have at least one day to do nothing but… hang out.. whatever. Since doing a whole lot of nothing makes for boring blogging, I thought I’d share some of the sites I visited today when I was surfing, Bullet Sunday style (on Saturday).
- Jack’s grandmother has this really nice and big turkey roaster. I was asking where she got it and she said she’s probably had it 30-40 years and doesn’t think they are made that big anymore. I went surfing today for one and found this Bialetti Hi-Dome Roaster with Rack that seems like a good deal. It’s not the same as hers, but it might do. As luck would have it, we’ll be at Target tomorrow, too.
- I also did some searching for turkey brine and how to do it. I’ve never done it before but hear it makes for a juicy turkey. Since we’re having turkey for our Christmas eve dinner, I wanted to learn how. All the sites tell you how for a smaller turkey.. but what about a big 20 lb one? San Francisco Chronicle had what I was looking for.
- Have you ever cooked a turkey upside down? Or breast side down? I haven’t.. and never even heard of such a practice. But in my searches today I came across Simply Recipes (a site I bookmarked) that shared, Mom’s Roast Turkey Recipe which gives instructions on how to roast a turkey breast side down. Apparently it makes the turkey breast juicier. It sounds really good but I’m nervous to try it.
- One of the work assignments I received earlier this week I finally looked at today and it took me to charlotte cosmetic dentist web site. I browsed it a bit. Since I don’t live in NC, it doesn’t pertain to me much.
- I created a character on the test server for EverQuest II and did a search for the best solo class for EverQuest II. I don’t plan on playing on the test server much as I don’t have time to play on the live servers as it is. But when I do, I don’t want to worry about finding a group.
It’s now almost 7:30 PM and we’re getting ready to light a fire in the fireplace, get snuggly and watch some movies. Oh how I wish we had more of these kind of days.

i’ve done chickens upside down and it DOES make the breast meat more juicy. the only down factor is that the skin over the breast is worthless because only the top half of the bird gets nice and crispy.
HI capello,
Welcome to my site! Yeah I read that was a drawback, but if you turn the bird back over for the last 30 minutes of cooking, the skin then browns. But then you of course risk drying out the breast again and it would be hard to turn over a cooked 20 lb+ turkey.
