In my family, Thanksgiving is the untouchable holiday. There must be turkey, stuffing, mashed potatos and gravy and cranberries, along with 50 vegetable side dishes and an assortment of rolls and desserts. This is how it is every year and we do not deviate from this written-in-stone-tablets tradition.
However, Christmas is a bit more relaxed and open to experimentation. We've done hams, all kinds of roasts and even seafood. So I thought, why not go back to where it all began and think Christmas Carol- think Goose.
Now where to find one? Ah, naturally, Google will find you anything you ask for. And it found me a goose. You can get fresh, frozen geese delivered to you anywhere in the country from Lobel's New York. How delightful. And how EXPENSIVE. They want $78.00 for a damn dead goose. $78 dollars?! I could buy the whole Christmas meal for that kind of coin!!!
So should I splurge and get this delicious goose, which I've read has the consistency of dark meat chicken and turkey (which is my favorite) and is melty meaty and very rich. Or should I just save my money for something less exotic (and expensive)
Sure might be tasty though....
Before...
After. Decisions decisions.
Goosey-loosey Yours,
Nay
