We do my partner's extended family every other year. It's six hours of my life I won't get back.

We followed Alton Brown's methodology for a brined and roasted turkey and it turned out spectacular.
I did that last year, came out excellent. This year we went to Chicago and ate with my GF's family. I'm not sure how they manage to keep that city so clean looking. We sweep early and often.

I traded in my fun blog for several legal blogs. Or, "blawgs," as the cutesy attorney blawgosphere likes to call 'em.

I moved to Chicago (well, the northern burbs anyway) about three years ago, and it really is a remarkably clean and attractive city. I think it surprises a lot of people.
I'm guessing you didn't visit the south side. I used to go there often to visit a girlfriend's relatives and it seemed that they had a huge broom shortage that got worse as you got closer to Gary, IN.

I never realized how clean Chicago was until the first time I visited Las Vegas and walked down the street to another Casino. Talk about filthy, and it wasn't just the thousands of call girl handbills flying around either.
We should have a Chicago meet-up some time. There's at least 3 of us in the greater metro area and I've at least met Slack before (shared a hotel room with him even!).

Have any of you eaten a Turducken? It sounds rather insane, but I'm considering it as a Christmas Lunch-dinner (and probably both for boxing day as well). I know it gets some play in Thanksgivings.
Also any particularly good recipies for same.

Everytime someone mentions turduken I think of the Red vs Blue 2004 thanksgiving thing. (too lazy to look it up to link it).
