LOL. I was going to type pretty much verbatim the same response!  ;D

Surrounded by Canadians, those who know of my dedication to curry think I am bizarre. Ditching turkey and stuffing for Madras and naan would go too far.

That said, I cook a mean turkey, and they won't know that I marinate it with curry base.  ;D

That sounds 'fowl', but I dare say if done right it would all get 'gobbled' up pretty fast!

Actually I like to keep aBREAST of such new ideas but fear I am too 'chicken' to try this one.

And I hope you realise that if you're pulling our legs then you're going to get a good 'roasting' for it.

Yup, I don't think it'll go down too well, at least not here where I'm 'baste'!



OK I'll get my coat.  :-[
