On another note I like to take the breast and cut it into chunks not to thick, say about 1/2" max. Cube it with a hand held cuber, marinate over night in Zesty Italian dressing, right out of the marinade into your favorite flour or breading and then cook over medium heat. Tender and yummy.
Randy, you have my mouth watering(!) I'll give it a try.

Dean, now that the statute of limitations has passed, I can admit that many years ago I mistakenly shot a second bird while he was "giving what for" to my already shot bird. I was lying in a logging road and after my first shot I thought the bird had only been wounded and was getting ready to run off...so I shot again and when I stood up, there were two dead birds. The first one shot was a Jake, the second one weighed 27 pounds and had 5 beards. I'm still chagrined that probably my best turkey was not taken more "appropriately."

Harold, I was wide awake at 2:30 am this morning. Once I get into the early morning pattern, my internal alarm clock goes off on its own. I could not get back to sleep. It also frustrates Elaine because the sleep pattern also means I go to bed at 8:30 pm.

Charlie, good luck with getting your chores done. Hey, our squirrel season opens at the end of May, so if you lived in Missouri, you'd have another excuse to not do chores.
