nineweaving mentions that she knows someone who, for Thanksgiving, is planning to roast a quail inside a duck inside a turkey. I wonder what this would be called, a turducquel? I hit Wikipedia to find out. I am instantly distracted.

Some of those are really scary. I'm impressed. ;-)

Only turkey at my house, but it should be good turkey, at least. Da wants us to have bacon and oyster dressing, but my mother isn't going to permit it.

Your subject line has broken my Greek, BTW. ;-)

See reply to schreibergasse. It's a ridiculously compound word from Aristophanes' Ecclesiazusae. Sort of the supercalifragilisticexpialidocious of the ancient Greek theater, only more so.
