Jingle All the Mitchell Way: a Holiday Novella
“Are you sure the temperature is set right?” Jake asked while holding the twenty five pound turkey, prepared to lower it into the hot grease.
“Yeah, it’s been on for an hour. Drop it in.”
I wasn’t one to read directions, not that my dad’s turkey fryer came with any. I was pretty sure my mom had them somewhere in the house, or that I could pull them off the internet, but chose to wing it, much like everything I attempted. The concept was simple.
