Turkey Platters

Let's Talk Turkey...

Turkey Platters...that is.

I have a thing for turkey platters. It's just not Thanksgiving without a special platter for your bird.

That said....I didn't have a turkey platter but then I've never cooked a turkey or had Thanksgiving at my house.

My Mom always did it and she has a turkey platter.

Now, I have Thanksgiving at my friend Shannon's every year...

(which may not happen this year

because she is getting a new kitchen which I will be posting about soon)

Her kitchen was suppose to be long done by now but it's not. And it may be a few more weeks.

You know how that goes. She is very stressed about it.
Surely, it will be done by Christmas.

But back to platters. I bought the one above back last February at Target on clearance for $7.
I debated buying it because ... well it was February.

But I'm glad I did now that it's November.
Pottery Barn has this similar one this year.

Yes, I do like this one better with it's worn edges. The design is better too...but it's not $7.

Look how nice the matching salad plates are.

Pottery Barn also has this one too. It's on clearance also.
So after drooling over Pottery Barn's platters....I
then decided to go see what sort of Turkey platters our friend Nancy has in stock currently at
Nancy's Daily Dish

Nancy has some superb antique examples that anyone would love to serve a turkey on.

Yes, love this one.

Oh the blue is nice.

Then she has some platters sans turkey.

I really like this brown one.

All of these would be divine on the old Thanksgiving table.

Then I checked out Ebay.
There were lots to be had on Ebay. Pages and pages of them.

This one above is not very expensive but it's one of my favorites.

Love this all brown one.

What a pretty table this sets.

Do you have a special Turkey Platter?
