With my family though, anything goes, so we have a good mix of Viet and Chinese food, and then sometimes if my cousin or I feel like making turkey or other American food, we'll do it the traditional way. This year, doesn't seem like either one of us feels like doing turkey.shavedicesundayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03621700368774743260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29502985.post-52049976451834424882008-11-19T21:32:00.000-08:002008-11-19T21:32:00.000-08:00Hi WC, I'm a deep fried turkey guy.
