I've been using this recipe for the past 4 or so years. I can't find the original. I am tucking sage leaves in the thighs and forward part of the breast. I put butter on them so I get a little flavored fat basting without flavor leaching while dry brining.

The good news: the president has pardoned the turkey.
The bad news: two hours later the turkey was arrested for running a ponzi scheme and committing acts of gross sexual imposition.

Shoppers can be thankful for discounts on turkey and stuffing this year. While overall grocery prices are up, this year's Thanksgiving meal should cost a bit less than last year's.
Give thanks for the discounts: The feast will cost a little less this year
