    Steve, don't you?

    We were offered my son's turkey bones and the only reason we didn't take them is because we'll be in transition between VT and NJ and I'll be in Japan from Dec 1-11. It felt horrible passing them up.

    Making soup from the turkey carcass has always been a post-thanksgiving tradition in our house. We get lots of bags of soup to either eat or freeze.

    We had a great meal although not Turkey. We had stuffed pork chops, 2 kinds of potatoes, Polish balls with 2 kinds of gravy and cranberry sauce. We had to rest a few hours before pumpkin pie. We spent much of the day discussing our trip to Europe and my son has been researching for us. They are looking forward to going to Vienna with us as they haven’t been there.

    We had a lovely day as well. Had a wonderful visit with our friends over a 2-hour lunch and then came home and took a nice long nap. Took the dogs for a walk and then had a nice phone visit with another dear friend. In the evening we watched a bit of the new Anne of Green Gables, 'Anne With an E'.

    The weekend will be just hanging out at home.

    Umm, yes? That's why I took the carcass. I need to check my freezer; I may have enough chicken bones in there to make soup today, though I'm a little short on anything to throw into it to make it bowl-ready. Or I'll cook at least half of the turkey I bought this week and I'll throw that carcass into the pot and make turkey-only soup or broth and freeze that for later.

    Got it.. I didn't get the "people I know" reference... Nothing like homemade turkey soup.
