Grrrl dinner. 🍽️ Deviled eggs with creme fraiche & caviar. Shrimp cocktail. Okra with tarragon ranch dip. And a Last Word with super-tiny lime garnish.
I have a video of my brother-in-law (a pretty buff guy) trying valiantly to spatchcock the Thanksgiving turkey a few years ago. He went through a number of tools. I think the sledgehammer was the final, successful one.
