thanksgiving dinner
I am having two of my best friends over for thanksgiving dinner and I'm going to cook for them and I've promised that they will have real bird and I won't foist tofurkey on them. The question is, do I actually cook for them or do I pick up the pre-cooked turkey from the caterer the night before? I don't want leftovers. Do turkeys come in small enough sizes for just two people? Should I go with Cornish Hens or some other small bird for them? How does one cook a bird? Any books or websites I could go to for advice?
I am quite a good vegetarian cook, but have never cooked a bird before on my own. Suggestions are welcome. For Manhattan, my kitchen is reasonably big, so I can actually cook in it although I think I possess the only electric stove in the city, which is not particularly impressive.
