Ask us how we ended up with eight legs of lamb, three turkeys, two
whole hams, and one half half ham in the freezer. We've used all, but
three legs of lamb and two turkeys. Both of those were bought within
the last four months.

This is absolutely true. It also makes entertaining on a budget
easier. We can afford to have 15 people over for dinner if we are
serving a roast turkey or a ham we bought on special.
