thaw

Only in the Northland can you be ankle-deep in slush with a mild breeze blowing in your face. This week's rapid thaw is increasing hopes for spring, and the potential for significant flooding in the coming weeks.

Resident food snob at work Steve Tanko told me about this a  couple of years ago.  Now that I've seen a trained Butterball professional do it, I actually believe him (just kidding, Steve).  What do you do if you forgot to thaw out your turkey ahead of time?
