cooked the turkey in my mom and dad’s WearEver roasting pan… 

it must be fifty years old because they had it when I was a kid… looked it up online and noticed that it was called vintage, lol… I can still see my dad lifting it out of the oven with whatever delectable food was inside it… 

that, along with their WearEver knife set, which hangs in the kitchen, and never get used, were treasured family possessions…

haven’t used the pan for a few years as the turkeys have been small and have fit nicely in my enamel roaster…

this turkey was a bit bigger so needed the larger container…

it does produce the most beautiful gravy… a lovely rich brown colour, even though there aren’t lots of bits stuck to the bottom of the pan… also makes the best nuts and bolts…

George had written our last name on the side for when we took it elsewhere doing catering… it was lovely to see his handwriting…

made me think of all the dinners we have cooked during our life together…

wonderful memories…
