When I read your original post of this thread I was
wondering if a turkey breast would be more suitable
in size for you two.  But then I thought there's the
possibility one likes nothing but white meat while
the other likes nothing but dark meat.

 My wife and I would be better off getting turkey legs. I am not all that crazy about drum sticks, but the thighs, IMO, are the best part of the turkey.

Put 'turkey breast' on your shopping list this week
and check if your store has them on sale to get rid
of them.  Then chuck it in your freezer for next
year or if you have a hankering for turkey again
in the next few months.  They 'generally' weigh in
at the five-pound range.

 The advantage of a turkey breast is that you can cook a decent turkey dinner and not be stuck with a  ton of leftovers.

Trouble is that you wouldn't get the thigh, which is also my favorite part.  I avoid the white meat on a turkey.  Whether I'm feeding 2 or more, leftover roasted poultry and carcass does not go to waste.  Stock, soup, sandwiches, etc...  Freeze what you can't use.
