Homemade Turkey Sausage

Well this morning I finally decided to make some homemade Turkey Sausage!  The recipe I used is from http://heavenlyhomemakers.com



Homemade Turkey Sausage
1 lb ground turkey
3 Tablespoon minced onion
¼ teaspoon cumin
¼ teaspoon marjoram
¼ teaspoon ground pepper
¼ teaspoon oregano
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon thyme
½ teaspoon sage
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 egg


 (only some of the ingredients :P )


Mix all ingredients.  Chill for about an hour.  (If you forget to chill this ahead of time…it cooks up okay anyway!)  Form into patties.  Saute in butter.


They turned out really good, although I did not have any marjoram or cayenne pepper.  So this is one of those recipes where you can just add what you have on hand and it should be pretty good! (key words: should be)  :P 

I ended up using about 1 1/2 pounds of ground turkey because that's all they had in the packs, and all of the sausage patties still had plenty of spices in them.

There's one spice though that I'm not too crazy about, it's either the Basil or the Oregano, I can't tell which, or maybe both.  It seems to over power the other spices. 

And next time I make theses I will be sure to have some cayenne pepper, because I think it would make a huge difference in the taste.  I also want to try this with ground beef, instead of turkey, because the texture of the turkey is kind of weird. :P  I like ground turkey in recipes, it's just different by itself.

Baby Shane is Here!!!

After 9 long/short months of waiting, he is finally here!  Shane Michael was born yesterday afternoon!  He weighed 6lbs 11oz and was 19 1/2 inches long!  Both mom and baby are doing really well!

Bethany's water broke at 1:38am, and Shane was born at 12:10pm. So it was a long night for everyone :)

Megaman Legends 3... Canceled

Yes, it is very sad news. I just found out last night. I was so disappointed. I was going to buy a 3DS just for this game! The Legends Series was one of my favorites of the Mega Man games.  Capcom says it was because of "lack of support/interest" come on! What is that?  There are plenty of people who were looking forward to it (not to mention Megaman Universe, which was also canceled)! Part of the problem was there wasn't enough publicity, I mean unless you follow this stuff actively or heard it by word of mouth you probably didn't know anything about it.  Oh well, Capcom is really missing out.

On a good note though, my wife and I went to see Transformers 3 last night and it was Amazing!! I wasn't expecting it to be that good. We saw it in 3D (that was all the theater had that late) and I am very impressed with the advancements made in 3D technology. It actually looks like all the commercials said it would back in the day with those blue and red glasses!  So if you havent seen Transformers 3 yet, you definitely should!

Yes, it has been a while. So I figured since I'm on my phone a lot, why not use this new feature that Blogger has and link my phone to my account? So I did! Now I can post short updates to keep you all tuned in! I'm also going to try and find a mobile app for blogger so I can post full messages on the go!

AT&T = Bad

I just read that as of yesterday, AT&T is going to cap their DSL users, not just their cell phone users. You can read about it here: http://www.engadget.com/2011/03/13/atandt-will-cap-dsl-u-verse-internet-and-impose-overage-fees/

Thanks for the tip Ethan!

I understand wanting to charge those who use more a higher fee, but I think they should also lower the cost of those who don't come anywhere near that cap limit. It should work both ways. I am not a big fan of internet caps. Which is why I have had my cell phone service with T-Mobile for years now. I had considered switching to AT&T for better cell coverage, but now I will never switch to AT&T for anything!!! If AT&T buys out T-Mobile like they are wanting (hopefully the government will prevent this), I will be switching to Verizon, which everyone that knows me knows it's like a sin! Or possibly Sprint, you know, go with the underdog

So for those of you who don't like Caps on your usage, you should leave AT&T, and fast! Boycott them! We should not let AT&T control the market, it's not fair.

What do you think?
