    Won a year's supply of turkey!

    Ok, I "won" it in the fact I was the high bidder at a charity auction.

    Jennie-O (Hormel's turkey division) is based in my town. They donated this to a fundraiser auction. Basically, we get to select two cases of any Jennie-O product every month. I did some calculating, and figured it maxes out at about 1,000 lbs of turkey products, with a retail value up to $7,500.

    The winning bid? Only $425.

    I think nobody was bidding because that's a humungous amount of meat. Far too much for any normal sized family. However it's perfect for us!

    Congratulations! You think you'll be sick of turkey by Thanksgiving?

    At least it's for a charitable cause.

    Hehe, WhiskeyPapa's not raising a family. He's raising a clan.
    Common sense is what tells you the Earth is flat.
