from the Gobble!-Gobble!-Gobble! dept.

On behalf of all the staff I wish all of you a Happy Thanksgiving!

I am grateful for all the support the community has shown us since we started SoylentNews.org on February 12, 2014. Has it really been that long? Back then, the internet was dominated by HTTP; it would take some time (years?) until we transitioned to Gandhi and then Let's Encrypt!

I have been active on the site since we started. Why? It was the spirit of gratitude I saw here to be free from having "corporate overlords"; how people pitched in trying to help. They were looking not at what they could get but rather what they could give! That spirit lives on to this day. Where? I see it in the people who submit stories and journal articles. I see it when people post (and moderate) comments. And lets not forget those who subscribe to the site which pays bills (hosting fees and accounting expenses, primarily). We are all volunteers here; nobody has ever been paid anything for their work here!

I'm taking this opportunity to thank all the editors who perform the seemingly thankless task of selecting, reviewing, editing, and posting stories to the site. I hereby invite them to enjoy the long holiday weekend.

We will be on a holiday/weekend story schedule from the start of Thursday through the end of Sunday (UTC). Enjoy the well-deserved break! Thank You!

Another story will be along presently; this story is in addition to our normal schedule. --martyb/Bytram

    It's pretty good, with the cold leftover turkey.

    Any other recipe?

    Turkey curry for sure. Leftover turkey kinda sucks and goes bad fast, curry extends its lifespan. If you want to stay on theme, add peas, maybe diced potatoes.

    You should saute onions, turkey, other vegetables, add spices like garam masala and turmeric, add water or prepared sauce if using that, boil or pressure cook it, and add a thickener at the end like coconut milk, sour cream, or yogurt if you want.

    A buddy of mine swears that said turkey sammiches are better with fresh cilantro in place of lettuce. I tried it once and it is definitely a nice combination.

    I'm also going to make fried rice along with Asian style BBQ with the dark turkey meat, onions, green onions, soy sauce, and BBQ sauce.
