Marion Roach Smith’s alternate sisterly reality, with Margaret Roach.
WE’RE GETTING JIGGY WITH TURKEY here on The Sister Project. If, like me, you do not relegate turkey to a mere once a year, but instead make it more often, you probably have more than a few recipes in your stash.

First time here? Here's the idea: The Sister Project is a network of blogs about the many facets of the word sister, and the concept of sisterhood. A sisterhood of sister blogs, you could say. Whatever sister means to you, from identical twin to sister-in-law (or in friendship or in feminism), we’ll make room to listen in about it or express it on TSP. Like the slogan up top on our homepage says, “Don’t you have something to say to your sister?” We've got galleries of art and literature by and about sisters, and a Sisterpedia of sisterly trivia...but now we're getting ahead of ourselves. The quick study: Learn more about TSP, and how to find your way around. And oh—a giant, sisterly welcome.
