Not to be a party pooper, but…

I found this Thanksgiving dinner calorie counter intriguing. Turns out that I’ll need to walk about 19 miles to burn off what I’m planning to eat. And I typically don’t eat dessert.

Happy turkey day!

    Who are you kidding A-F? There wasn’t even a category for DEEP FRIED Turkey. I calculated my caloric intake & figure I’ll have to walk at least 29 miles to make up for tomorrow! The beer consumption alone will probably get close to 19! Have to sign off & go to the gym now for advance preparation.

    Jenn,
    Hate to break it to you, but your hubby’s a redneck. Deep fried turkey? I think I was just trying to ignore that part.

    I’m trying to get to the gym as well. And away from my kids!

    Now I know I’m not a redneck, but I was at Kitchen & Co today and noticed a shiny new high-tech stainless-steel turkey fryer (there’s apparently more to it than dropping food into hot oil). I lusted after it the way I lust after 6-burner grills, convection microwaves, any kind of meat smoker, or really anything that uses thousand of btu’s and produces ciiked food. I always thought a roasted bird tasted just fine, but in the interest of health, if deep-frying a turkey means it’s so delicious I can forgo the fat-based gravy, I’d do it. Plus it would massage my macho BBQ-control issues this winter.

    OK, the deep-fried turkey ROCKED! And I don’t have time to walk 19 miles tomorrow!
