Turko de Mayo

I celebrated Turko de Mayo for the 11th year in a row. It's a holiday I created so that I could have my favorite meal, which is Thanksgiving dinner, in May. That way, it's always only six months away until I can cook another turkey.

I had a 17lb. turkey, mashed potatoes and homemade turkey gravy, home-canned green beans with smoked sausage, stove top stuffing, homemade dinner rolls, cranberry sauce and homemade pumpkin pie. I had a friend over and it was delicious!
