Back in 84 I was unemployed officially but I had a pickup and would make furniture deliveries for this fly by night furniture store. I also picked up cans and bottles for recycle to make rent. It was Thanksgiving eve and I got this delivery and set-up of a bunk bed and a couple of dressers. It had to be delivered late in the evening because the single mom did not get home until after 8pm. It was out in the boonies. This meant I got paid double for an after hours delivery and extra mileage. I really needed the money. The gal was very nice and gave me a $10 dollar tip. That was a big tip back then. It was cold and really foggy with 5 foot visibility as I was driving home. I was trying to decide if I would get a turkey or a 12 pack of beer and a chicken for Thanksgiving with the 10 bucks. Just then out of the corner of my eye I saw something big and white running alongside the road, it was a big turkey. I slammed on the brakes and slid off the road and jumped out of the truck and ran and caught the turkey. It was too big to snap its neck with a swing like you can do with a chicken, so I smacked its head hard on the truck bumper. I had so much adrenaline that it dispatched that bird right away. I threw it into the bed of the truck and took off because I had no idea if I was turkey rustling. I could not see where I was. I had my story all prepared in case I got pulled over, I would just claim road kill. I had blood on the bumper to prove my story. It was a real bitch to pluck that bird because I did not have a pot big enough to dip it in hot water and all I could do was poor hot water over part of it at a time and pluck away. I did not want to skin it because bald turkey meat doesn't cook well. It was a gift from heaven and I invited a couple of my also unemployed friends over for Thanksgiving dinner. None of us had the extra money to spend on a turkey that year. The 10 dollars bought all the fixins for a proper meal. Someone brought a bottle of wine and someone brought a case of Luck Lager. I was truly thankful for that bird. It was in the newspaper a couple of days later how a few cages of turkeys on the way to the processing plant had fallen of a truck and in the fog some cars wrecked into them. It made me feel better that I did not rustle that bird and glad I did not hit any of the cages myself. I did not even see them or the wrecked cars? The wrecks might have happened after I already passed the cages? It was definitely fresh road kill.
Best road kill story I have heard in a while, but it seems I gotta spread the love in the points department. :pighug:
 
It’s either that or a Boston crème cake as long as I get one I’ll be happy actually or none either I’m not a huge cake person so it’s not a big deal if I get nothing


Gluten free chocolate cake is one of the few products that are as good or better than normal... :headbang: ...using almond flour.

I split the mix in two..cook it... cool it..then freeze it to get it out of the baking trays whole...

Then a bottle of sour cherries..made into jelly..jello from the juice..

Once the jelly is cool...freeze that too...and sandwich it between the two pieces of chocolate cake...

Then when you defrost the cake...with careful defrost timing..the sponge defrosts but the jelly and the cherries are still semi frozen as you munch through it...:pie:...




Gawd...I so want chocolate......:biggrin:

I was homeless for 8 months in Sweden. It sucked. I got out of it though, but yeah, it stays with me a little. More than 25 years later.

I made quite good money on the streets but living on the streets is so expensive it left me at zero no matter how I tried 😂 West coast Sweden gets cold too.
