Cooking turkey. This is actually funny now. Normally, it would of been fine because I am a master at cooking turkey dinner. Well, both my husband and step son were ill yesterday so I was on my own, which is o.k. However, I had my shoulder reconstructed in June so I am not as strong in my right arm anymore. I took the turkey out to take it's temp. It was just about ready so I decided to leave the oven on low because we had a little while before dinner. I went to put the turkey back in the oven and my shoulder popped out and I dropped the right side of the pan right into the oven! OMG, what a mess. I had to take towels and pot holders to scoop the turkey back in the pan. It completely fell apart and left a huge mess in the oven. I was so depressed but then I decided I would take the positive path and say "oh well, the oven needed to be cleaned anyways." So I started the cleaning process that locks the oven for 4 hours. Well, soon after that all the fire alarms went off in the house. The house was full of smoke. So much so we had to open the windows, disconnect the fire alarms and take the fans out of the closet to blow the smoke outside. (It is cold in New Hampshire) Well, needless to say I have iced my shoulder since last night. On another brighter note the boys, Scout and Teller (our adopted German shepherds) just love me for their meals of Turkey, gravy, potatoes and carrots and I have a clean oven :)
