Tourtierre weekend

This is our weekend for making tourtierre.  I picked up the meats yesterday.  Most of it was frozen (the butcher shop slowly filled my order over the space of a week as supplies came in), with the ground turkey finished up shortly before I arrived to pick it up.  I got our Christmas goose at the same time, which will stay in the freezer for a while longer.  At about $90 for a 10-12 pound bird, it had better turn out! LOL

Right now... I'm procrastinating.  The dishes are done, but the kitchen isn't anywhere near ready.  I need clear stuff away to make room for prep and the food processor.  Everything still needs to be wiped down.  The stock pot still needs a scalding and rinse, since it's been in storage since the kids used it to make apple juice.  Of course, there's also a long list of things that also needs to be done, but no one's doing it and I have no energy to nag at people to do what should be obvious.  I've got a mild cold - not enough to be much a problem, but enough to make me reserve what little energy I have to things that won't drive me nuts.

What I really want to do is crawl into a corner and nap for a week.

*sigh*

Time to hit the kitchen.  Wish me well.
