How to cook turkey crown: The best turkey crown recipe

Image
A turkey crown makes a handsome centrepiece on the Christmas table and is the ideal turkey option for smaller festive gatherings. A turkey crown is a whole turkey with the legs and usually the wings removed, so just the white breast meat is left on the bone. It is also possible to buy a deboned stuffed turkey crown where the bones are removed making it extra easy to carve. Both are an ideal choice for a smaller Christmas fest as there is less meat.

Can you wear black to a wedding? 15 of the best outfits

Image
Credit: Canva We ask the experts the age-old question, can you wear black to a wedding? In most social settings, the LBD is a fail-safe option. However, there are certain ‘rules’ and guidelines – often dictated by wedding traditions or the happy couple themselves – which makes wearing black to a wedding a tricky decision to navigate. Traditionally, black was avoided at weddings due to its association with funerals. “Black is traditionally associated with mourning and funerals. Wearing a black, uber conservative outfit to a wedding ceremony may potentially send a negative message that you are not in support of the union,” explains Diane Gottsman, a national etiquette expert and founder of The Protocol School of Texas.
