““I’m saying it’s too long!” Oliver snapped. “You don’t understand how bad these things get!”
“And I’m saying give it time. Jesus, Oliver, you were always so patient as a kid, and you’re going to blow it now?”
I rolled out of Oliver’s bed partially clothed and yelled, “Fifteen minutes per pound!”
There was the pounding of feet down the hallway, and Oliver poked his head into the room. I was standing up, looking blearily around, wondering when I’d taken my jeans and sweater off in the night.
“What?” he said, eyes huge.
“That’s how long you cook a turkey.”
“Oookay.” He looked really confused.
“Isn’t that what you and your dad were arguing about?”
Oliver laughed a little. “Uhm, yeah. Sure. How about you come into the kitchen, and we’ll give you some coffee, and we’ll do the math.”
