I have a memory here - I always put the neck, heart, giblets in a nice sized pan with celery leaves and onion, put that on the stove right away on Thanksgiving morning so as to start smelling up the house (that works better than a candle). Then around 11:00 or so, pregame show (?), #1 husband would want to know if the giblets were done. And I proudly went out with two small dishes and two forks and to my son I would say "Wanna neck?" and to my husband I would say "Have a heart." That was an all important part of our Thanksgiving dinners. Edie
