Making the best of Turkey Day dinner disasters
The turkey’s still frozen solid. The gravy comes out lumpy. The guests
arrive before the food is finished. Big holiday dinners can be
tough to orchestrate. Don't worry. Most kitchen failures can be fixed with a little ingenuity
and flexibility. If the buttered carrots morph into carrot soup or the cake
becomes “pudding” at the last minute, no one needs to know that isn’t
what you’d planned all along. The most important thing is to keep your cool.
