Ok, so if any of you are following the current challenge you know I've vowed to eat healthy until our vacation with the exception of one cheat meal which is our friend's birthday party. Everyone is supposed to bring a course with a wine pairing. So this should be some good food, right?
Right?
Wrong.
The host is providing the meat course. Guess what they are making? Tur-Duck-En. For any who have not had the pleasure of hearing about this particular tasty dish allow me to explain:
Take a chicken, stuff it in a duck, stuff that into a turkey.
I'm so bummed. I'm now going to have to waste calories on nasty food.
That turducken thing sounds weird, but you never know, maybe it will be good. If it's not good, don't eat much of it! Hopefully you can fill up on sides. I know for me personally, the turkey is my least favorite part of Thanksgiving or Christmas meals, so I always just take a sliver and then load up on the potatoes, stuffing, etc. So maybe you can do the same thing. Or, just don't eat much and go out with Jeff to a nice restaurant for a real cheat meal.

But what are the OTHER people bringing, Marie???? What are you bringing? If you're bringing brownies just park yourself in front of them and make a meal out of it.
I won't know what other people are bringing until we get there. Like we signed up for a "fish" course. Others signed up for "appetizer" or such. No specifics. But the host just asked us to make a corn dish to go with the tur-duck-en.
Knowing who is coming (and therefor cooking) I do not hold out much hope.

That's what I'm thinking. And if duck isn't done right it is downright nasty. And I don't see how you can cook all three together and have all the meat done to the proper temperature.
