Here's the secret handed down from Grams, to mom to us: take it out before it's "done". Turkeys keep cooking as they sit. Risk it. Take it out 10 minutes or so before it's done, let it finish cooking on the counter - it'll be the moistest bird you've ever eaten.

In France, you have to order them from the butcher, and even then - not so sure as they are not really into turkey here.... just thought I'd mention!<BR/><BR/>Your cookies are beautiful and am glad that you seem to be settling in. Good luck with the French lessons, I had a permanent headache for my first six months here. And, happy winter and happy holidays.<BR/><BR/>Esheppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18174537281718561752noreply@blogger.com
