    If that's anything like how my mom used to clean my face as a kid, I'm not interested in eating that!

    Bakery white bread, a bit of mayo, turkey and sweet pickles please :)

    The next day I do boil whats left of the turkey but I have to add boullion (sp) cubes to make the broth taste like anything. It's more of a tradition to make the turkey soup than a real desire to have it. We live near the Willie Bird Turkey restaurant and I could easily go there when I want a good turkey soup :)

LOL) I bring it to a boil and turn it down to a simmer, skimming off any brown stuff that floats on the top (scum). I cook it for a few hours.

    Probably better to look up a stock recipe. ;-)

    I think the only recipes I use for Thanksgiving are for the pies.

    (No need to wave your hand in the air like that, Lisann, I see you hopping up and down and volunteering to punch me).

    That looks like it! But I am puzzled by the "takes ten minutes to prepare" line. Cause it takes more like 30 just to bake, not including prep time of chopping the onions and celery and so forth. I wonder if they've reformulated it???

    Anyway, if I don't find some in stores tomorrow, I will order it from this site and be eternally grateful to darling Mele for not only reminding me about the petit fours every year but reuniting me with the best croutettes IN THE WORLD!

    Ladies, you have saved Thanksgiving for the entire Glitter clan. Huge hugs to you!!!
