I can’t be, right? Has everyone else tossed their leftover turkey in the trash? Or am I just gross because I made myself a turkey sandwich for lunch today… Sure it’s been 8 days since Thanksgiving, but the turkey was so good and there’s only the dark meat left, which is my favorite. I toasted the bread, and added big spoonful of homemade cranberry sauce and stuffing. It was absolutely delicious.
This week we had turkey and biscuits for dinner for two nights — my husband used to only want Bisquick brand biscuits, but I’ve finally convinced him that homemade biscuits are so much better. And it was so good — we added the leftover spicy corn to the turkey mixture one night. I’ve had a turkey sandwich for lunch every day this week. I’ve changed it slightly for every meal, and it’s been fabulous each time.
And I have enjoyed every single helping of leftovers. My husband pretty much turns up his nose at leftover food by day 3, but I plan on eating this meal until the last plastic container is wiped clean. Is it gross? Probably. Should I just throw everything in the trash tonight? Yes, definitely. But will I do that? Probably not. Even though tomorrow is garbage day.
I see another toasted turkey and swiss cheese sandwich in my future, and it will be tomorrow.
Notes from a Self Quarantine 
Thanks for your ongoing posts, Sheryl. Your Thanksgiving week posts were so funny, such a ‘slice of life’ during such a bizarre time in all of our lives. Can’t wait to see pictures of you and ‘the husband’, sitting at the dining room table, eating leftovers, and wearing your turkey hats… keep going, keep laughing, these blog posts are good therapy for all of us ! Cheers !
