Is there a price tag affixed to the nylon net where is forms the handle?
Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
no tag in the handle. I see little corner of paper in the metal clip, that may have been one. Alas, it is gone.
Call and ask. No matter how you cook it you need to know the weight.
Call and ask. No matter how you cook it you need to know the weight.Right?! Hence my (not-quite) panic. Um, who do I call?!?
Do you have a bathroom scale? Can you put the turkey on the scale and then stand on it? I know holding it would probably be impossible with the crutches.
Or! Weigh something, and then add the turkey, weight it again, and do some math?
Whoever dropped it off?
I thought about suggesting water displacement but that seems kind of extreme.
You might be able to get a close guesstimate if you have multiple somethings of a known weight that you can pick up at once to see if they're right. Or use a balance.
Damn, this is one geeky bunch trying to weigh things.
OK, called mom, and thankfully she put it on her bathroom scale before bringing it over. Why she didn't write that info on the white board on the fridge? Whatever. So, in the bag and net, and everything, it's 13.8 lbs. Whew. Just UNDER the max for the frier.
Crisis averted. Thanks for input.
I am trying to find these mystical jeans that I think will fit me. Let me tell you, the search for the fucking tomb of King Tut had nothing on this.
Crisis averted.
Pfft. You haven't tried to deep fry it yet.
