Rubber Gloves

No, I'm not talking about latex gloves, like the doctor wears during a prostate check, get your mind out of the gutter.

The BEST TURKEY TIP I've ever heard, the solution to my ever-nagging problem of how to move the enormous turkey from the roasting pan onto the serving platter without tearing half the skin off the bird, giving myself a second degree burn or juggling three spatulas and two forks?

Put on plain old rubber gloves and just grab the thing with your hands. Works amazingly well!

There. Now don't say I never did you a favor.

I never thought about that, but then again, I only put the turkey IN the roaster. It's Beloved's job to worry about how to take it out.

I'll pass the tip along.

Thanks for the tip. If I ever do another turkey I'll use it. Since, I hit the age of 50 this year I've decided to start my slide into eccentric. Which for me means delegating turkey duty as a starting point. The crowning glory will be when someone says, "Michele's too crazy to be allowed near the bird."

Thanks for visiting the blog today.
