I was expecting a picture of a loaded down Thanksgiving dinner table with O'l Tom the main attraction. Complete with a glowing report of how delicious your home grown turkey tasted. And now I am disappointed.
You can thank my MIL for this. She just up and decided, she was going to fix a Butterball. I've fixed the Thanksgiving turkey, every Thanksgiving for as long as I can remember. And is one of the reasons, I raise my own turkeys and she fully knows this. Who knows why? Maybe she looked at my turkey Tom and seen something she didn't like?
But to avoid a confortataion, I just decide, to keep my mouth shut. My MIL & FIL won't even eat the chicken eggs my hens lay, they say it's 'not natural". I don't get that rationale, but again, I just keep my mouth shut.
I have to respect my in-laws and their beliefs, but sometimes, it's aweful damn hard. The way I look at it, they we're raised when all this factory farming and food stuff made up in a lab crap started. They believe it's better for them, so who am I to say different? I have to admit, it's still hard for l me to bite my lip though.
