Song of the Week: Meat Thermometer

About a week ago I received a free turkey from the grocery store. It was the best day of my life!

Upon hearing this news, my friend Amanda Winterhalter became very excited. She suggested I write a song about it. She thought that the phrase “meat thermometer” had a nice ring to it.  I agreed. I took her up on her suggestion.

What happened next will not surprise you in any way. I made a song called Meat Thermometer. Are you surprised? I didn’t think so.

Meat thermometer is a phrase that has strong potential for fun/gross sexual innuendos. I could have easily gone that route but ultimately didn’t push that idea too far. Instead you get a mostly harmless rock song about turkey cookin’ good times. But if I ever write a song called Meat Thermometer again, it will be disgusting.
