Making the Turkey -Part 2

1:30 First time basting the turkey, all the juice was dried up. Probably should have started basting sooner.I think maybe putting that chicken stock in probably wasn't a good idea. Added 4 cups of water.
2:00 Basted again. I think it's going to work. Kept basting every 20 minutes.
3:40 Took aluminum foil off. Put meat thermometer in Bird.
3:45 Realize I forgot to put the lifting chain under the bird. It's a chain with handles and when it's time to take the turkey out of the pan you can lift it up like it's handles on a tote bag. Not this year, I'm going to have to lift it out by the rack under the bird.
4:25 Realize turkey will be done soon. Start making the potatoes & squash and gravy. One of the burners is out so I have to light it but I can't turn it off without having to relight it. I make the gravy in the roasting pan. I add water, flour, salt, pepper and this time I added the giblet juice. I boiled up the neck and giblets and saved that and threw it in with the rest of the stuff to make the gravy.
5:00 Dinner ready , on table. I took pictures of the turkey & the casserole pan of stuffing. If I can figure out how to post a picture from my phone, I will.
SO, in conclusion, the meal was very good. The turkey came out great . Mum & I only each had a piece about the size of a slice of bread-off a 12 pound turkey. The stuffing was even better than I thought possible. The gravy. .. was okay. I bought a pie from Petsis , which was also great but I should have let it get to room temperature first. The meal was just my Mother and I . I proved to myself that I could cook a turkey. I really enjoyed doing it. I was glad I was by myself and not having a house full of people. Maybe I'll do it again next year. I think I'm just going to get a ham for Christmas . . . . .

The vague fat burning food theories are the ones that just state that foods that burn fat exist and list a long list of burning fat foods. Of course that's not going to give you the results you want. If you don't know how those foods actually burn fat you won't implement them the right way.SlimPhoria Keto

True Keto Boost that I've found with the quick weight loss diets and the low-calorie "starvation" diets is that they do not promote safe weight loss. Typically, when pounds drop off much of it is water from lean muscle tissue, and very little of it is actually what you really want to come off.

When it comes to the Thunderbirds, Thunder Testosterone scholars of mythology strongly suggest that this creature is just the embellishment of the California condor, eagles, or the extinct teratorns.

However, this range is not universally Absolute Keto accepted and some people say the fat burning zone occurs at a different percentage range. In truth, each individual has a different heart rate where they will burn the highest percentage of calories from fat during exercise.

You can over indulge in food during Thin Zone Keto the day and not eat a single thing at night and you WILL gain weight. As is the fact that you can starve yourself during the day and eat all night long and you still will gain weight.

The main idea here is to Slim Patch compress the abdominal region so that some strain is imparted that will help breaking up energy rich constituents in that region. Holding this position for couple of minutes will serve the purpose of breaking up belly fats.
