Survey, Who Has Turkey Left

I still have most of my turkey left over. I not sure if I cooked it right or not since it was my first one I ever cooked

My family is to big there is never anything left. I always tell my wife we should make a turkey for ourselves but we never do.

We weren’t sure how many people were going to show up so I bought a 22.81 lb Butterball turkey. Only 5 of us ate dinner... I’ll be eating turkey for a while! We had a bunch of people show up for drinks & dessert though!

We had a slow roasted prime rib roast and yes we do have some left

Me. We are making our turkey dinner fir our kids tomorrow

Yesterday, I got to deal with ALL my holiday leftovers, as well as everything else, when my 1 yr., 2 week old 30 cubic foot Kenmore elite refrigerator took a dump- It was delivered to me 11/16/16. They are pretty sure it is the compressor.......... Sears extended warranty is as worthless as our Congress. Parts have been ordered- ETA Dec 7th.....WTF. Freezer was jammed to the hilt with meat & shrimp, scallops, etc. So- my "options" They will credit me $150 for a mini frig- I can pick it up from Sears today....... HOWEVER, after searching all the Sears locations within 50 miles, there is nothing bigger then 3 cubic feet in my area. Again- WTF. Last night- gave away as much as I could of the mostly still frozen good stuff. Threw away probably $400 -$500 worth of fresh food and condiments- it had been at about 50 degrees for more than 18 hours. You don't realize how much money you have invested in food, until you have to dump it all- a fortune in condiments alone! Today, I throw away all the "cheap" meats- hamburger, chicken breasts, sausages, pork chops, etc. Good quality food is probably the one thing I spend way too much $$ on, but if I am going to have a steak- it damn well better be a rib-eye or better. I eat low-carb- so lots of fresh veggies and meats.
Wasting food goes against every fiber in me- I was raised being told that I had to finish my supper- "there were starving children in Europe".
This has been a shi##y way to deal with holiday leftovers. It will be an interesting next 10 days.

I feel your pain and know what you're going through. During hurricane Irma, we lost power for a little more than two days along with $18,000 of damage to the house. The insurance company is denying the two night hotel stay even though we were ordered out in a mandatory evacuation. Gee, I thought that "loss of use" in the insurance policy would have covered that expense. But the worse part is they're also denying paying for "food spoilage for loss of power" since the power failure was not caused by an issue with our delivery system. Unless we can prove that the loss of power effect OUR home first, they won't pay. How (expletive deleted) stupid can they be?

@NatomasSlingshot1 and @funinthesun I’m really sorry. That stinks for you both. It is no fun to deal with, especially during the holidays.

During Hurricane Frederick, the great outdoors moved into the house, via the roof, and I had no power for 5 weeks, no running water for 6 weeks. I had a hand pump, a coleman cook stove, and a cooler. Apparently I was a hell of a lot younger, tougher, and much more adventurous then.............
Sorry for your loss- hurricanes are why I no longer live on the gulf coast.

I wrongly thought that's why you actually PAY for insurances
