The underlaying theory from which I was working is a fork of two other ideas: The first being that your chain-fast-food nugget is made from a processed meat. (Hence the already minced/ground base.) And also the "keto pizza crust" recipes that I saw in a few places that use canned chicken as the main ingredient. I thought I could expand or explore in that space.

I've been making regular g-turkey nuggets in a similar fashion for a few weeks now. Standard weekly meal prep, easy and fast and can be made and stored in bulk.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention our cat Vaska managed to stick his tail in a lit candle and set it on fire. The whole thing was aflame and he had no idea.

He's fine, his fur is a little singed.

Well, it was a long drive home.

The Fried Turkey was a hit. Can't say the same for the Oyster Stuffing.
Folks in Colorado have a whole different idea of Oysters than folks back on the Gulf.

The Boy's new house is great. Well, the property is great. The house, a bit small, but he's got a great big Barn with a concrete floor and we set up the fixin's in there.

I ended up frying the oysters after the Turkey came out and introduced the Cowboys to real Oysters.

My grandchild's girlfriend (now fiancee) was here the past few weeks from Australia, and we wanted to experience a more-or-less traditional American Thanksgiving. Our son smoked a turkey on the barbeque and we had mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, stuffing (Stove Top, because Mrs. S burned the bread pieces she'd saved for that) with added turkey sausage, celery, and onion), jellied cranberry sauce, broccoli with slivered almonds, bear- and squirrel-shaped biscuits, pecan pie, pumpkin pie, whipped cream, homemade chocolate/peanut butter fudge, champagne.

Miisa: Mrs. S is one of seven kids. We tend to do Thanksgiving separately, and then do Christmas with the broader famiiy (40+ people). That larger gathering starts in the morning with eggs Benedict and continues throughout the day with a (potluck) layout of ham, lunchmeats, sliced cheeses, veggies, salads, cookies, cakes, candy, etc., and an assortment of sodas, beers, and (depending on whose house we're at) hard liquors.
