Turkey Day is almost here…. Are you ready for Pumpkin Pie? Are you ready for stuffing (no oysters this year)? Are you ready for Turkey. I know of one Turkey, named Marco Pollo, which will be cooked up in gourmet style.
I baked an apple pie with the apples we picked (from the bin) at Apple Hill. There really isn’t that much bad stuff in an Apple Pie… sugar mainly. Is Crisco bad? The crust came out pretty darn well if I do say so myself. You’re supposed to eat fruit for breakfast right? Apples are fruit and sugar :)
So..the motto for the holidays is this: If it’s home made, it has no bad calories! In fact, it would be an insult to the chef not to eat home baked pies and cookies. Chow Down!!!

Is Marco Pollo just a misspelling of the famous Italian explorer's name (he was Marco Polo), or is it a play on the fact that "pollo" means chicken in Spanish?
ReplyDeleteIn that latter case, of course, the Spanish pronunciation would be mar'-co poy'-oh...which has a nice sound to it. Though not when constantly shouted in a swimming pool.
