Thanksgiving turkey and stuffing tips for a wartime feast
A long read on roasting a turkey with careful stuffing and doneness tests. It covers cavity prep, trussing, fat cover, roasting methods, and temperature checks, plus variations for stuffing such as bread, celery, eggs, oysters, sausage, and a spiced cranberry relish. It also mentions postage stamp price changes and wartime clothing rules in a briefer aside.
