41 lbs of turkey

That's almost as much as my daughter weighs.

I may or may not have 3 whole turkeys in my refrigerator, which may or may not need to be cooked TODAY.

And by "may or may not have," I mean I totally do.

I've never cooked a whole turkey before. This will be a learning experience, and hopefully Not At All a failed experiment.

If you don't hear from these turkeys again, it was the latter.

I think I'll need help on this one. I will be armed to the eardrums with Alice in Chains, Faith No More, Father Peter and maybe some Megadeth.

EDIT--After unloading one of these babies on my mother-in-law, it is safe to say that one of the turkeys was a definite success and the other one.... maybe not so much. Remains to be seen, since we annihilated that first one and no one had any hunger left for the second one. It's cooked, I'm not pleased with the visual results, tomorrow we'll see how it turned out.

Many, many pictures to go through, I will eventually post recipes and details.

EDIT v2.0--OR NOT. Guh, I'm such a slacker.
