Instructions

In a large soup pot, combine turkey drumsticks and water, then bring to a boil. Add onions, carrots, celery, garlic, salt, black pepper, sage, thyme, rosemary, and celery salt. Reduce heat and simmer for about 2 hours, or until the turkey meat is very tender.
Take out the drumsticks and let them cool slightly. Remove the meat from the bones and chop it into bite-sized pieces; then, put the meat back into the soup. Throw away the bones.
In a large pot, bring lightly salted water to a boil. Cook egg noodles in the boiling water for approximately 5 minutes, or until they are tender but still firm. Drain the noodles.
Put the noodles into soup bowls, then pour the hot turkey soup over the noodles.
