So, a Turkey bird is actually called a Hindi in the country of Turkey and it is extremely hard to find one around the end of November. Supposedly they are more popular for New Years...but luckily some of our helpful and dedicated classmates tracked one down to ensure the authenticity of our holiday dinner!!! and just so there is no confusion I was only present to supervise and document the cooking of the turkey, I take no credit for actually cooking it....only for cooking the mashed potatoes, carrots and turnips, and the mulled wine.
