Leftovers

We've been working our way through the vast amounts of Thanksgiving leftovers. Yesterday we officially finished all of the side dishes, so all that's left is about a half ton of turkey. While rummaging around in the cabinets at 11:30 this morning, looking for a snack, I remembered this awesome sandwich spread that my parents make with turkey leftovers. It's really easy if you have a meat grinder, which was procured for me a few years ago with this specific recipe in mind because I do love it so. You grind up a couple of big handfuls of turkey, two onions, about five pickles (or more if you're me and you love them), add a spoonful of mayonnaise, stir and voila! The perfect sandwich spread. Or cracker spread. Or straight-from-the-spoon spread.

Also on the stovetop today was turkey noodle soup. Henry and I made a batch of cornbread muffins to go with it, and I have brownies in the oven right now. I don't know what's going on with me. I seem to just need to cook. And eat. Tis the season.
