I'm in love with this turkey brine.
I've been trying to get to Williams Sonoma to pick some of this up, hopefully tonight. I read about it on Pioneer Woman Cooks. It's a little pricey, but I thought it was worth it. I used it last year for our early Thanksgiving, it was GREAT. We celebrated early because the missionary left on November 14th.

He was transferred this week to a little island on the coast of Chile called Chiloe. He said he was taking an airplane & a boat to get there. After seeing Ancud, Chile on my reader's map below, I googled it. It's a city on the island & boy is it a beautiful place!
I'm guessing... he's obviously been here?!

I'm thankful for blogging- for that connection to home from anywhere in the world.
Yesterday I sent him a package with this in it.
I hope he introduces some Chileans to pumpkin pie!
I don't think they have pumpkin pie in Chile,
Do You?
I've never heard of turkey brine before, but it sounds like it would be yummy.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe Brian has been gone for almost a year already! I'm glad he's doing well and is now a beautiful island. I'll have to look that place up online.
What a fun treat for him and his companion. What a "sweet" mom!
ReplyDeleteI did not get my e-mails until it was too late to have you pick me up some brine....dang! I will just have to make time and get into Trolley Square.
ReplyDeletewe can all head into WS tomorrow together if you haven't gone already. otherwise, grab me some! i loved the brining last year!
ReplyDeletei can't believe it's been a year. wow. what a blessed family you have.
I've brined a turkey before, but never with a fancy WS brine -- I'll bet that would make it even better!
ReplyDeleteWhen Marc was on his mission, the missionaries made a traditional Thanksgiving dinner for the whole branch! (actually two different branches) That's a whole lot of turkey cleaning and potato peeling. Let us know if the Chileans try pumpkin pie.
I bet they will love the pumpkin pie...I on the other hand would settle for one of your yummy apple pies.
ReplyDeleteI have no desire to find brine for a turkey....how sad is that? the only thing I'm worried about for Thanksgiving is getting my list ready for the day after shopping. I'm not a cook.
Good gravy, I learned something new! I had never heard of turkey brine before. I will have to try it! I can't believe Brian has been gone for a year. Crazy!
ReplyDeleteBrain has made it to the one year...woo hoo! That's exciting:)
ReplyDeleteThanks for picking up the brine... I can't wait to try it.
