Brine!Fail

I'm hosting this Thanksgivings Day dinner tomorrow evening, and sort of stressing out about cooking the turkey.  A bunch of people suggested I brine the turkey before baking it, so I read through 10 million websites about it, come up with a recipe and a plan, and despite not having a big pot to put the turkey plus brine in, I figured I'd improvise.

By using an oven bag.  You know, the kind used to actually cook the turkey in? 
Not a good idea. Not a good idea at all. )
