I cooked a turkey last night. My first turkey ever. And all by myself.
It came out awesome. I get home from work at 7pm, so it was in the oven at 8pm. I wasn't planning on actually having any, but I surrendered to the smell and the golden skin when it came out of the oven. It was scrummy!
On a cooking-track record note, Yay me! I didn't burn it. Woot!

*sniffle* am I really a big girl now? I have finally "arrived" ... by reading my "gourmet cooking for idiots" and following it step by step. who would have thought the path was so straight! LOL
