"There is really a je ne sais quoi……" — Laurie Colwin

There is really a je ne sais quoi about turkey cooking -… - Laurie Colwin
"There is really a je ne sais quoi about turkey cooking - the air of festivity, the family squabbles, the constant basting - that does not apply to the turkey breast, which is, really, a convenience of food... A turkey without seasonal angst is like a baseball game without a national anthem, a winter without snow, a birthday party without candles."
