We talked to each other on our iPhones as we watched the game. It was like being together– talking about the plays, the score, the players, cheering as we watched the TV screen... not too different from other Thanksgivings. xoxoMaureen Harringtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499876353651763590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-11683744283993750122012-11-23T10:18:39.977-05:002012-11-23T10:18:39.977-05:00Jan, thank you - thank you.

Jan, I love turkey ...Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.<br /><br />Jan, I love turkey and wild rice soup. My friends from White Earth send me a 1 lb bag of locally harvested wild rice every year. It's hand harvested and wood parched by members of the tribe using the traditional methods. I learned how to cook it when we were in school and they would bring wild rice casseroles made with the rice from home. It's unbelievably good. I think you can order it from the tribal store on their web page. Their wild rice cranberry pilaf mix is delicious. http://nativeharvest.com/catalog/1/wild_riceMaureen Harringtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499876353651763590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-46513520667063233332012-11-22T11:02:06.684-05:002012-11-22T11:02:06.684-05:00No Hallie, I didn't, but you can make sure I&#...No Hallie, I didn't, but you can make sure I'm going to research that connection now!! <br /><br />Denise Ann, I applaud your ability to eat brussel sprouts for breakfast!! <br /><br />And Deb, I am now on a mission to find barley-shaped egg noodles.

You can make pretty much any kind of soup using the broth from the turkey carcass. We each have our own variations. My personal favorite also uses carrots, parsnips, onions, and purple top turnips. My favorite soup noodles are barley shaped egg noodles, which have been almost impossible to find around here in the last four years or so. I will generally substitute acini pepe noodles but I DO miss the barley shaped ones! We grew up on them in many of the soups we made and I continued to use them everytime I have made soup as an adult. Soupmaking is something I have enjoyed since I was very young. In the last few years I have been a guest more often than the hostess at Thanksgiving so I haven't been making Carcass Soup. Homemade chicken noodle soup is also good, of course, but using the turkey for soup just prolongs the delightful aromas of Thanksgiving!Deb Romanonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-18281506517003851852012-11-22T08:15:24.514-05:002012-11-22T08:15:24.514-05:00Turkey tetrazini.
