The day after — 6 Comments

  1. Hey Kiddo,

    If you are just relaxing today, and you should be, you might take 20 minutes to check out something pleasant pertaining to that lacunae we both admitted to – or me at least – in our education: a musical theory as to why, in part, we like what we like. The circle of fifths. Who would have thought it explained so much?

    The first link merely describes it and aids in its construction. The Coltrane episode of Vice, gives us the theory of why something may seem melodic or harmonious to us, or dissonant, and why some alternate keys “work” while others, more or less, don’t

    I’ll have to listen carefully to Coltrane’s famous Green Dolphin Street live performance in Germany, to see if any of it applies there.

    – Circle of 5ths a powerful tool …

    – How Coltrane employed the circle of 5ths to produce the “most feared” piece in jazz for improv.

    Happy Thanksgiving.

  2. Soup is the real reason for going through roasting the turkey! I know lots of women who don’t know how to make soup. What a loss!

  3. “I usually am not that keen on turkey stuffing (otherwise known as dressing) baked outside the bird.”

    You go, girl! :>)))

    And for those who don’t keep kosher, don’t forget the regular, old-fashioned “country sausage” and the oysters, which :>( I myself forgot to mention in the other discussion.

    Yes indeed, Neo, you deserve your day of enjoyment.

    Happy Friday, everyone!

  4. Taking a break from turkey & trimmings with scrambled eggs and bacon.
    I love having breakfast for supper.
    Neo- thanks for all your posts and analyses, but especially the not-political articles; they make your blog really different from all other animals — popular and wonderfully run after, both before and after five o’clock.

  5. I do a splendid bread stuffing with rye bread and sausage. We went to friends, and so I do have a small baggie of turkey leftovers – but I am thinking of going to see if there are fresh turkeys on sale for a pittance at the supermarket, and parting it out in small chunks for later meals.

  6. My wife’s (and before that, my mother’s) weekly Sabbath Eve “chicken” soup is really a chicken/turkey blend, made with a turkey neck and chicken wings. Beats a plain chicken soup any day of the week. Best part is the pieces of turkey-neck meat in the soup (the chicken wings are disposed of after cooking).
    Turkey carcass soup is an ever-more-awaited delicacy.
