Re: "The Main Event," From the Editor, November, page 12, in which editor-in-chief Katie Tamony confesses: "I have never made a Thanksgiving turkey."

Like you, Katie, I have never cooked turkey. Our grandmothers passed the expertise on to my mom and mother-in-law. My husband and brother-in-law were the ones who asked all the questions and eventually took over the turkey chef role. Now, my two sons-in-law are in charge of the turkeys. Last Thanksgiving, we had four different kinds: deep-fried, smoked, boned and cooked on the rotisserie, and one traditional turkey cooked in the oven. They were all delicious. As usual, I baked the pies.
